Expedition Foods says

Cheesy, creamy and out of this world… macaroni and cheese! One of the most popular comfort foods is over-the-top popular. Historians are unsure who exactly we have to thank for this decadent dish, but the earliest known recipe for mac and cheese was in 1769 in Elizabeth Raffald’s book "The Experienced English Housekeeper." Just add hot water, stir and wait five minutes. You may well eat this meal for breakfast and lunch too.

Preparation: REMOVE THE OXYGEN ABSORBER* (Sachet) from inside the pouch. Slowly add up to 204ml hot water, stirring as you pour and then close the bag. Wait 5 minutes for the food to rehydrate. Cold water will suffice, however the re-hydration time is much longer.

* The oxygen absorber helps maintain product freshness and is non toxic. DO NOT EAT.
