It fascinates me that you guys would have this stuff in a deli!

It's also not called "American cheese" in my country (NZ).

It's called "processed cheese" and strongly associated with children's lunches, so most of it is packaged to appeal to children.

Processed cheese is not cheese. It's rubber that won't hold air. It's cheese product. The only acceptable use for processed cheese slices is throwing at your little brother. I wouldn't even feed those to a dog.

All cheese is valid. Even swiss

It's kind of almost like a confectionary.

This comment makes me want to huck imported cheese at you.

I've never met a cheese I didn't like.

[–] livus@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I didn't say I don't like it! It's just not a deli food here.

I have met a cheese I didn't like, once. It was rubbery and tasted like soap. Unfortunately I had a kilo of it to get through.
