Kraft singles (and Lucerne or Kroger equivalents) are good and being solidly against them is weird. I mean the old-school cheap poo poo that was oil-based imitation cheese was bad, but actual dairy American singles are incredibly handy to have on hand.

Yeah there's two kinds of "American cheese" and they're probably getting lumped together here. The ones that are actual milk-based cheese, often sold as "deluxe" or "deli deluxe", are perfectly good and serviceable for melting on a burger or including in a sandwich/grilled cheese. The "pasteurized processed cheese food product" American singles that inevitably come with each slice individually wrapped in plastic are inedible garbage. Some place called The Daily Meal agrees with me.

What is the point of this thing? Okay, it probably has close to zero calories but I can't imagine it tasting like anything but dishwater. Is it a salad? A main course? The entire meal? Oh, it's an American classic, according to wikipedia. quote:Celery Victor is an historical American marinated celery salad dish invented in 1910 by Victor Hirtzler, head chef at San Francisco's St. Francis Hotel, who is also credited with inventing Crab Louie. Without the 70s photography it looks like this:  I'll take "things you bring to the potluck when you don't want to be invited back" for 200, Alex

Braised celery tastes amazing and you should try it before you bash it. It’s got some great aniseedy notes without being as full on as fennel. My favourite way to prepare it is to wash and trim the whole celery heart. Slice once straight down the centre, lengthwise. Put some oil and butter in a large pan/frying pan with a lid, get the exposed flat side sizzling. Then pop the lid on and leave for 15ish minutes. It’s soft all the way through with lots of caramelisation on the bottom side and is a great side dish. I’m actually making this today as a side for a roast leg of lamb. I’m also making cauliflower purée, roast brussel sprouts and Yorkshire puddings. Hell yeah.

Cheese talk reminded me I bought the cheapest pre sliced cheese today, I could find (1.20€ for 10 slices, local store), the contents say: milk, salt, leavening agent, animal and microbial rennet, fat-free condensed milk, cheddar cheese 15%, and various other stuff too.

American cheese the cheese isn’t particularly good but it’s an actual inoffensive cheese for a burger or something. A kraft single and knockoffs is not labelled as cheese because it’s a separate product to american cheese.

Yeah, "american cheese" as an actual cheese variety is just a bunch of other cheeses (mostly cheddar) melded together for optimal burg melt. There's nothing wrong with it but if you're some sort of cheese aficionado it's akin to pouring five different wines into one glass. "American Cheese*" as a product is a minefield full of plastic and plastic accessories and should not be trusted. It is the truest deception of cheese capitalism, even more than Aerosol Product or the fact that most people in America think "babybel" is a variety of cheese instead of a brand.

My only real gripe is that delis will label their American cheese in such a way as to trick you into buying it. I went to one of those Boar's Head deli counters in a grocery store shortly after moving to the East Coast and saw they had a big brick of what was touted as "Aged Extra Sharp New York White Cheddar", which sounded delightful, so I got like half a pound of it. Took it home and unwrapped it for a sandwich and it was fuckin American

American cheese, as it was originally produced by its canadian inventor, was just a couple cheeses, primarily cheddar or colby, being mixed together under high heat to produce a more standardized product that keeps longer. I don't know what the weird non-cheese slices are made out of, probably some kind of coagulated oil and salt, but they probably change the recipe to whatever's cheapest at the time. Not to be confused with Government Cheese, the former government program to protect the dairy industry by buying excess milk and then storing that milk by turning it into cheese and distributing that cheese as welfare, as part of America's tradition of welfare programs that are more designed with something else in mind and welfare is just a side effect.

My folks got this for a while when my dad was laid off around the time I was born. They said it was decently good cheese and helped them through some hard times. So of course now they vote to destroy welfare of any sort

A shame that you can not combine government cheese and doctor's sausage. Is there a country somewhere that does welfare bread? So you could add that to make a state sponsored sandwich?
