What are your thoughts on American Cheese ? I would be greatful for feedback from our Talk Bassers from outside the US in regard to this question. I greatly enjoy the yellow variety myself , I have noticed that a thiner cut yeilds a more enjoyable expirence.
 
Bleh. I'll eat it on a hot sandwich or in an omelette, but only if the person or restaurant doesn't have any other kind. Gimme the real stuff, from Vermont cheddar to gruyere to brie to blue, and many points in between.
 
It's no Gorgonzola.

Though watching Homer eat 64 slices of it in one sitting was entertaining.

Of course, that's Homer from the Simpsons. The classical Homer I understand, dined on browned butter and mizithra cheese while composing the Iliad. At least, that's what my menu from [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] said.

What the hell was I talking about?

Oh well, I'm going to make a grilled cheese.

LOL!
 
When you say 'American Cheese' do you mean that stuff that is square and a scary shade of yellow, and comes as individual slices wrapped in clear plastic?

Because I always thought that was the same stuff you put under carpets to help insulate your house.

A good strong English cheddar is that way forward.
