The Mac and Cheese Monster

It was a mundane evening, and I was yearning for some solace in the form of comfort food. I decided to make my go-to dish, mac and cheese, which always seemed to soothe my soul. Following the directions on the box, I boiled the noodles, added the powdered cheese, and stirred everything together. The aroma was enticing, and I couldn't resist taking a bite.
However, the moment the mac and cheese touched my tongue, a wave of revulsion swept over me. The cheese tasted unnatural, almost metallic. I assumed maybe I had overcooked it, but upon inspection, everything seemed fine. Ignoring my apprehension, I took another bite, only to find the taste even more repulsive. It was as if I was consuming metal shavings.
I tried to spit it out, but the mac and cheese had transformed into a mucus-like substance that adhered to the walls of my mouth and throat. It was impossible to swallow or expel it. Panic set in, and I felt my airway constricting, suffocating me.
I rushed to the sink, striving to rinse out the mac and cheese from my mouth, but it was futile. The food had solidified, blocking my throat. As I fumbled for my phone to call for help, the screen displayed static. In the midst of the noise, I discerned a menacing pair of glowing eyes.
I attempted to scream, but the mac and cheese lodged in my throat silenced me. I sensed a presence behind me, and I felt hot breath on my neck. Slowly turning around, I saw the source of the breathing, and it shook me to my core. The mac and cheese had congealed into a monstrous creature, with sinister eyes and a devilish grin. It was as if the food had animated and was eager to consume more.
I tried to flee, but the mac and cheese beast was too swift. It ensnared me with its slimy appendages, dragging me closer to its gaping maw. I knew that I was about to be devoured by the very thing that I had hoped would bring me comfort.
Suddenly, the mac and cheese monster vanished, leaving me alone in the kitchen, covered in cheese and struggling to breathe. I vowed never to eat mac and cheese again after that night, haunted by the memory of the mac and cheese monster that almost devoured me.
