American Cheese. Cheese or cack?

Squeezy Cheeze = the Work Of the Great Satan. In fact, that is proof that America is The Great Satan.

Cheeze Whizz, that's the worst, it's cheese in an aerosol. you can do graffiti with it, it dries out to the hardness of concrete in a day or so.

A couple of weeks ago, my Turkish girlfriend was buying cheese from an Italian deli in Philadelphia. She happened to remark to the counter guy that American cheese is disgusting. The woman behind her in line freaked out in a patriotic rage, actually saying "if you don't like our cheese go back to your own country..."

I had a variety of cheese related traumas, of which two still scar my memory.

One is of going into a diner on Broadway that advertised "Jacket potatoes with broccoli and cheese" in the window. The girl behind the counter placed some wet, rubbery broccoli on top of a spud and then went over to a tap. She operated said faucet and out oozed... Bile-yellow emulsion? Pus? That is certainly what it looked like. It didn't actually taste of anything.

The other (and worse) encounter was with an allegedly "Gourment cheddar with port" I bought in a supermarket. I swear the manufacturers go round to all the chiropodists' practices at the end of the day, pick up all the bags marked "Highly toxic medical gacky foot waste -- do not open", and stick the contents in a big press overnight, heated to optimum festering temperature. Then they cut it into rectangles and sell it to suckers in supermarkets.

This was an experience I had truly never had in my life before: cheese I couldn't eat. Needless to say, the seppoes in the office thought it was delicious.

A cheesesteak should have Cheez Whiz on it though. It's not as good with provolone or some sort of real cheese.

Ah, you were over here too long. You've been infected.

That sounds like a scene from a film...
