Did you or do you still eat slices of american cheese by themselves?

We don't call that "american cheese" in Canada. We just call it Kraft Singles. Loved that stuff when I was a kid.
I needed something to go with the slice. Anything. A slice of bread. Rolled up with some ham or bologna.
I could never just eat american cheese on its own, even as a kid.

I used to as a kid...
But the Wife and I bought some on July 4th as part of some burgers we made and I've been eating the singles on their own/as a snack.
I feel tremendous shame each and every time.

Not often, but I'm not above eating a slice by itself while I'm making burgers or something. It's not enjoyable to the degree good cheese is, but it's not bad or anything. This would be the American you get sliced at the deli counter (e.g. Boar's Head)—which is a fair bit nicer texturally than Kraft Singles and whatnot.
Hell no. As a kid I thought I didn't like cheese because American cheese was all I knew. Still can't really tolerate it very well, although it's decent on a burger.
Yes a lot as a kid and still do ocassionaly to snack on. Not sure why, but i guess its tradition.
I fucking love American Cheese. Nothing melts better, not a god damn thing. And the cool thing with american cheese is it will help other cheeses melt better, so if you're making a grilled cheese with cheddar, throw some american on there to help with the melting process.
Do yourself a favor and next time you make burgers splurge for the fancy deli sliced american that LOL makes and get some cheddar or muenster or pepper jack, w/e you like, make the burgers slap a slice of american on top and your fancy cheese on top of that and your fancy cheese will melt 1000 times better.

I wasn't a believer but it really does help when needing to melt good cheese. You can buy emulsifying salts to melt cheese but that is not as practical as just throwing as slice of american on something.
Don't eat much american cheese. With that said, I do like cheese slices by themselves. Not sure what the name of it is but the cheese in europe (the brick looking one) that you slice your self is tasty as hell alone if you don't want to make a sandwich.
American cheese alone is like one of those flavors I cannot stand. Like an uncooked hot dog. Yuck.
ill eat American cheese but it has to be on something and preferably melted

Sometimes I do when I'm making grilled cheese for the kids, but then I regret it. Never as good as I imagine it will be.
Nope, I always hated American cheese. American cheese is why I grew up thinking/stating I hated cheese -- even though I ate pizza, spaghetti, lasagna, etc -- before ultimately realizing it's that shitty fake cheese being tossed on sandwiches, burgers, crackers, and so on that I truly despise.
Even the Deli Deluxe Kraft Singles that they sell in a big bag are tons better than the normal singles. I try to keep a bag of those on hand for melting purposes out of convenience
God, no. Slices of actual cheese, sure. I'll munch on sliced Pepperjack. But American cheese? Cold? God, no.
Sorry you are right but some reason
This doesnt taste good

Nah, I came from an Italian-American family and we always had provolone from the deli and I ate so many slices.
We have kraft cheese slices in Australia, they probably just went with what they recognise or because ready sliced proper cheese is much more common in Australia so they may have been looking for that and couldn't be bothered to use a fucking knife to cut a block up. Or they're just Bogans.
I have one kid who will only eat proper cheese on a burger and one who only has plastic cheese (American cheese, kraft singles, whatever...). Outside of a burger they have no place in this world.
As a kid, sure, when it was in the house (although that wasn't super common, usually it was deli cheese)
As an adult, I don't ever buy Kraft Singles, I buy cheese only from the deli, sometimes American but usually not

Nothing like a Kraft single and marmite straight from the jar to work up a feeding frenzy before I dump the bag of Oreos on the floor.
It depends. A lot of the packaged sliced stuff is not legally cheese, but 'cheese product'.
yeah it's just called processed cheese.
this is an ad from the 60s for New Zealand chesdale processed cheese.
It's only called 'American cheese' because of An advertising campaign from Kraft, started by the Canadian-born James Lewis Kraft, I believe.
Land o lakes and other actual deli american cheese is good, but to me it just can't stack up to real cheese. With that said, if I have a stack of deli american cheese in front of me I'll probably eat a slice. Kraft singles, na I'm good fam.
