The one time I ate cheese in the US it was on a McD's Cheeseburger. It was piss-coloured. I didn't try cheese again until I left the continent.

Certainly not all American cheese can be that bad, but I think I'll stick to Kiwi cheeses. You don't export dairy as your main industry and not learn how to do good cheese.

American cheese sucks. Anyone who has eaten good cheese (the French apolytoners would know) knows that.

Same thing with american bread. Sorry, but thats just how it is. I know a lot of you are used to eating it, but that doesnt mean its any good (compared to real bread).

I like a good burger though (but no McDonalds, Burger King crap). A real one, grilled with semi-decent bread. I guess american cheese is good for burgers...

If Easy Cheese isn't the sign of the decay fo Western Civilization, nothing is!

American cheese is a real cheese. The Kraft permutation--presliced and individually wrapped--is a mutation of genuine American cheese, not a good example. Most commercial brands like that have more oil than milk.

Real American cheese is quite good in some instances, such as grilled cheese and tomato (since it melts so well). However, I prefer cheddar by a large margin.

White bread is made from wheat flour, whereas what we call "wheat" bread is a brown bread made from whole wheat grains.

In the UK whiz is slang for either amphetamines or urine depending on context/what part of the country you are in.

To be fair to the American continent as a whole, Canadian gets imported lots into the UK. So does NZ and Aussie.

My favourite would have be the Aussie, then the NZ (Aussie's got more salt) but the Canadian has a very creamy flavour and compares well to either. It certainly is good cheese.

I wouild guess that US cheese has problems being imported in the UK (dairy farming is very big here and you're not a conventional ex-colony like the others). Judging from the comments I would say we're not missing much.

Yes, I did 6 months work in a cheese wrapping plant, so I've had contact with tons of the stuff.

The best Cheddar in the world (all the above are better than KSJ, AKA Kraft-Suchard-Jacobs) is made by Horlicks Farms. It's rare, quite expensive, and absolutely tops.

Unless you start talking vintage or special reserve, which is really all the others left to rot.... er, mature even more.

MMM... "processed cheese food." Yuck.

I will use American Cheese from the deli (the "real" American cheese of which Boris speaks) and it's fine - it does the job. It also tends to be cheap.

Hersh,

Don't worry about us, we can get lots of different cheeses in our supermarkets. There is a whole section devoted to cheese (the plastic wrapped slices are elsewhere) near the deli, which also has even more cheese.

MrWhereItsAt fell victim to one of the classic blunders. Never get into a land war in Asia, never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line, and never, ever, eat at Micky D's and think you've experienced American food.

Actually, America exports cheddar all over the world. Wisconsin and Vermont cheddars are regarded among the finest there is.

American bread? What? Which kind, the whole wheat, the 8 grain, the 12 grain, or the white?

I don't really like American cheese so much... but Wisconsin or Vermont chedder is YUMM! Though I also love Swiss, Monterey Jack, etc... and of course the blue veined cheeses...

Ok, I just love all sorts of cheese... even Easy Cheese .
