    “American cheese isn’t even cheese”. I mean ‘american cheese’ is very processed. But go to Wisconsin and tell me we don’t have good cheese.

    There’s plenty of good quality stuff in America. We just can’t fucking afford it.

      There is even american cheese that is simply the blend of the two cheeses. No extra emulsifiers, no preservatives, no plastic like qualities. It is fairly soft, and quite mild, but it is nothing like the kraft sheets. It is just two cheeses blended together.

        In fact, if it can be labeled as cheese, that’s exactly what it is. Kraft Singles cannot be sold with a cheese label.

        American Cheese is also really good for melting into things. Like on burgers. If you look at how smash burgers are made, it’s basically a bunch of D-tier ingredients and cooking methods, including cheap American Cheese, that come together to be delicious.

        Time to share this nugget from the crusty vaults of my memory. At Kroger, the price tag on the shelf for their Land o’ Lakes White American Cheese read: “LOL White American”

        It’s stuck with me for years.
