I really want American cheese that is not wrapped in plastic. Kraft makes it but it costs more than double the plastic wrapped stuff. I've paid that price when times were plenty but they are no more.
Buy a cheese slicer and thank me later. Another pro tip buy cheese from Amish people if you can, I love like 30 minutes away from an Amish store & their cheese is on another level.
Random tip, if you have a block of cheese but no slicer, you can wrap it once with dental floss where you wanna cut and pull the ends together to cut through the cheese. It can be just a tad awkward though, just basically try to make sure the floss ends stay lined up on the plane of the cut. I dunno, just a quick hack anyways.
Mmm, minty
Have you ever heard of a "knife" before?
Yes, broke the handle on one the other week trying to cut through one. Cheese has a very high friction when trying to cut with a knife. That's why they make cheese cutters.
Dental floss works better than breaking kitchen knife handles...
I guess it depends on how big the block is to begin with.
I'm not buying multiple kilograms of cheese in one setting.
I have a cheese and meat slicer on my wishlist, I'll get there one of these days.
Cheese slicers are like $10? Times that tough?
Gone are the days of being properly fed off a normal wage.
Can't say I even find the ones individually wrapped appealing, cheaper or not. I wouldn't be surprised if it's not even real cheese.
It's "pasteurized processed American cheese product" according to the label.
Cheese product makes me think that there is so little actual cheese in it they can't legally call it cheese.
My understanding is it is made from reconstituted powdered milk.
We store a lot of dairy products in caves throughout this country I have been told.
American cheese is so processed anyways is it any better with or without the plastic?
Markedly. The stuff wrapped in plastic is like play dough in comparison to getting it in a block or sliced from the deli counter.
No joke, I worked in a deli and my friend would ball up a slice of american cheese and use it as a bouncy ball. That shit is wild.
Just use Swiss Cheez, it's spreadable. I don't eat anything without it.
Are you okay?
