That… substance is cheese?
The technical terminology is “cheese themed edible product”
American cheese is technically made of cheese, but unlike the jokes, it’s mostly just processed cheese with sodium citrate, a common food additive to make things easier to work with in cooking called an emulsifier. Nile Red covers it extensively in his Nile Blue channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aGNAxN5Z-o
I had a heart attack watching this. Even the original cheddar he used doesn’t look like actual cheese.
It was whatever cheese was available mixed together with milk and with emulsifier to make it easier to process. The main purpose was food security. But it became a staple–Government cheese.
I’m not putting Mimolette on a cheeseburger.
Yeahhh keep that weirdass emulsifier chemical shit out of my cheese. Plastic or not, it clearly does something weird to it

Pla-stic Notes
On the cheese spectrum, it’s on the far end that’s almost plastic. Only by law and in certain countries this would be considered cheese. Serve this in France or Italy and they’ll proper shame you for your ignorance. Most of Europe probably.
Whatever that is, it’s not cheese.
it’s as “american” as cheese can be: white american “prepared cheese product”, individually-wrapped for extra plastic waste.
you can get actual white american cheese that’s sliced (or block form). the ‘default’ cheese from subway is exactly that: sliced white american cheese.
the individually-wrapped singles slices and sliced or block american cheese are two different products. in the supermarket the difference is best illustrated by ‘kraft singles’ vs ‘kraft deli deluxe’ products.

“cheese”
That stuff will turn into plastic and take part of the wall off with it if it gets left it up there.
I know this because some asshole kid stuck a slice of cheese on my lamp post glass and I had to scrape it off with a razor blade when I found it who knows how long after.
In most countries east of the Atlantic that stuff is not allowed to be called cheese.
Yes yes america bad, we get it.
Yes, of course America bad. But specifically on the subject of food standards Canada also quite bad, for the rest Canada is mostly good.
Probably even less edible anyways.
