Does anyone actually like that pastie stuff in the blue box. Gawd, it's awful.

I do, and velveta and shells..

Velveeta is different.

Velveeta was first found growing wild in the Onongadonga Valley in 912 A.D., where it was harvested as free food by poor students.

The custom of giving poor students Velveeta seeds for sustenance dates from the Middle Ages.

Later, Ricardo Subo, working with George Washington Carver, found ways to accelerate Velveeta growth by sprinkling biodiesel on it, making it cheap and plentiful.

Later Hugo Kraft and his brother Curtis patented Velveeta after a landmark case that went all the way to the Supreme Court:

You Can read about it: Kraft Bros vs Mother Smuckers.

Kraft still holds the rights to Velveeta although I understand the Chinese are now making their own version

Get ready for another legal challenge!!

i thought hugo kraft had a brother who experimented with motor powered gliders, looked like a rabbit, and was nicknamed... "hare" kraft.

the gliders were made from the lightweight fronds of the rare velveeta palm tree - found only in along the banks of the cuyahoga - and joined together with a special aged blend of the dry paste from certain flavor packets and hellman's (known as best foods, west of the rockies) mayonnaise. of course, not knowing the importance of adding ketchup to the mixture, the project was doomed.

i don't think we've even scratched the surface of it. (but do we want to?)

for instance, i'm sure someone knows the "true " history of the twinkie? or pop tarts?
