When Writers Get Bored

Dear hard working and most likely underpaid Kraft customer service rep,

Today, I purchased and prepared a disgusting product called Kraft Velveeta Rotini and Cheese with Broccoli. I'm not a crabby person who gets a kick out of writing mean letters to companies. But I'm incredibly offended that Kraft is trying to pass this stuff off as food for human consumption.

First off, that packet of "broccoli" is pathetic. Nothing but dried green crumbs that pretty much all disappear when you drain the noodles. Absolutely no nutritional value.

And has the recipe for Velveeta cheese changed over the years, to include dirty socks? Because the stuff I ate today smelled and tasted like them. (Not that I eat dirty socks, I'm just estimating.) I remember it being delicious, when I was a kid. I'd beg my parents to buy me shells and cheese.

I know this letter is nothing but the whinings of an insignificant consumer-ant and will be promptly ignored with a friendly form letter, but if there's any way you can pass this on to whoever's in charge of the product recipes, that would be cool. There are probably thousands of others who have felt the same way after eating this foul cheese noodle substance.

Thanks,

Now, if you'll excuse me, I've made dinner plans.
