'american cheese' is fine. it's what most fast food joints and many restaurants use.

it's the individually-wrapped 'singles' that is the abomination.

they are two distinctly different products.

    As I understand it, it’s cheese melted with an emulsifying salt to make it able to be served hot without turning into a pile of curd and grease. I’d prefer real cheese like cheddar, but will admit that American cheese was made for the job.
