'Her "perfecting the recipe" ended up with this result': Woman tells MIL she despises her signature mac and cheese dish

Think of the most off-the-wall way you could make pasta… and it's still not as odd as this MIL's custom recipe.

This woman and her husband have a great relationship with his parents. But now that the OP, u/NecessaryAct35, is pregnant, she's finding herself unable to eat the food that her mother in law has been making…and she may have a good reason why.

The issue with this mother in law's mac and cheese dish is that she seems to have added far too many ingredients into the mix. Of course, depending on your culture and upbringing, the way you cook might be vastly different than someone from another country. The same foods you adore might be totally disgusting to someone on the other side of the world, and vice versa. But mac and cheese is a pretty simple dish, and when people make it, they will usually use some combination of cheese, noodles, and possibly a breadcrumb topping. Also, some people add peas for some reason. Anything other than those basic ingredients is messing with a perfectly fine recipe.

Not every person likes to follow a recipe, as this MIL will tell you. Her "famous" mac and cheese is totally custom made, with some genuinely concerning combinations. Check out the story below, as well as the comments, where people discussed if the OP was rude for the way she brought up her dislike for the mac and cheese.
