Cheese Soup or Sauce [C.S.O.S.] Mix

Real food eating can be a test of wills and sometimes a comprise. Happens only if you can deliver a product with less preservatives, looks and tastes like a name brand. This time I think I’ve got it! Cheese sauce for picky Wisconsinites. Instead of expensive little cans of cheese soup. I have a DIY mix that is close to Mega Food Giant Kamphell’s cheese soup or Crapft mac n cheese from a box. Names changed to protect the innocent.
