What comes to mind when you think about mac and cheese? Is it that quick and easy box of mac and cheese that you keep in stock because your kids are fussy eaters, or you are a broke college student? Is it that golden topped cheesy goodness you get when your cheese sauce is roux based and not some powdered, chemical substance? Or is it even that super creamy mac and cheese you used to be able to get at many restaurants? No matter what your idea of mac and cheese is, the folks at GOLO have produced a different take on an old time favorite.

The reunion was the first of its kind since 1977 and was organized by Cathy Jamison Colls, Vickie Colls Schwiening and Pam Jamison Kiser.
