Try a good deli-style American. So much better than Kraft Singles. Much lower milk content, so it’s more solid. Not individually wrapped, but individually sliced. Higher cheddar and Colby content, so its flavor is better. Still melts beautifully. Best burger cheese out there, IMO.
must be a uniquely American phenomenon because I’ve never met an individually wrapped slice of cheese that doesn’t simply blacken under a broiler like you forgot to remove the wrapper or something.
You must really be doing something wrong if your cheese doesn’t mostly melt, because this post of mine from like last week actually came from a block of real mild cheddar…
If they didn’t they would all melt together cause that stuff isn’t real cheese.
when the contents have as much plastic as the packaging
Looking at the thumbnail, I assumed this was going to be a joke about the cheese being essentially plastic
They could use parchment paper I think.
Might dry out
Personally, I like cheese but I always found plastic sliced cheese just fucking gross. Melted cheese in plastic blech

American cheese is processed. Depending on the amount of milk added during that processing, you get a product with a more or less firm consistency.
Singles are liquid when they’re poured into the wrap, and then they solidify. In this they end up being far less like traditional cheese.
Check out the Wikipedia page for more detail.
It ain’t gonna slide down easy if it ain’t cheesy!

I’m never exposed my child to this stuff, she’s been raised with mild cheddar slices or better, I guess they use it in fast food places though.
It’s plastic isn’t it?
Kraft does sell non-singles sliced american cheese. Nothing between the slices and it doesn’t stick together. Also doesn’t have that plasticy taste.
You couldn’t be more wrong 😐
We just have them separated by baking paper here.

which is super ironic because this trash doesn’t melt
American cheese is specifically designed to melt well, I don’t know what you’re talking about

In what general area do you live? I can confirm that these American “cheese” products are designed to melt.
Hell, even real mild cheddar from a legit block of cheese melts…

Most cheese does.
Why are you putting American cheese under a broiler? It’s supposed to melt, not bubble up and brown
