"Kraft introduced Velveeta in 1928, and its special cooking properties quickly caught on. When melted, it was as smooth as velvet (hence the name), and it would never curdle when heated. While many Americans today prefer regional or handmade cheeses, a lot of them still secretly indulge in a little Velveeta. After all, Grandma’s macaroni and cheese would never be the same without it. Velveeta makes this dip unbelievably creamy. Scoop it up with tortilla chips. My family loves this dip. Sometimes I'll put it in a fondue pot or small crockpot to keep it warm. Yields 4 cups"
