Tasting! Kraft Singles Melt Downs

Meltdowns

Ummm. Yeah. I had a few reasons to melt down back when I was single. Like the time my lame-O date pulled some mouthwash out of his car, swigged it ’round real good, then spit in my driveway. Then there was that other date – the one where the guy had a booger hanging out his nose for most of dinner.

This right here is uber-lame too and, needless to say, these melt down situations did NOT result in true love. So now I’m almost barfing again just thinking about it.

But we’re talking Kraft Singles Melt Downs anyways – the food kind.

Now you can have portion controlled nacho-greediness? These are reduced fat, single serve nacho flavored cheese slices infused with jalapeno taste. Kraft suggests you take 5 tortilla chips, top it with a Melt Down, then zap for 15 seconds. If you don’t know anyone with breath hot enough to melt the cheese, then I suggest you use the microwave.

Too bad it’s nasty. There’s a nice hot kick at the end, but only a microscopic hint of nacho/jalapeno flavor. The cheese does indeed melt down real nice, but I don’t give a damn because the end result is crappy, fake cheese taste.

Spare yourself the Melt Down experience. It’s better to buy a real block of cheese or the pre-shredded kind to concoct your nacho tortillas.

Kraft is pretty gross overall, but i think i’ve found the perfect use for Melt Downs. What better way to perfect KFC’s new and majestic DoubleDown.

As for mouthwash in the driveway… I agree, mouthwash spitting should strictly be relegated to sewer drains, sidewalks and out of windows. Driveways should be totally off limits.

What do you expect from the same people that brought you day-glo orange fake cheese powder macaroni? I actually bought the Pizza flavored(ish) Meltdowns for my son because he tends to like that sort of stuff. I say “ish” because you only get the pizza flavor if you close your eyes and wish real hard. Can you say bland?

Other than the mediocre product, my real gripe is with the redundant packaging. There’s the outer black plastic bag, then an inner-outer clear plastic wrap over the collection of individually plastic wrapped slices. At least one of those was completely unnecessary. Or maybe Kraft has ties to the oil companies?

Josie Reply:

I think the triple-wrap packing is designed to protect from oil rig spills.
