    Americans visited the UK during WW2’s rationing and never updated their stereotypes.

          Don’t be mad we actually make better cheddar than the UK.

          Also, not gonna lie, cheezwhiz has its place. It’s just not the height of culinary cuisine.

            Ha! Don’t make me spit out my tea. Your cheddar is cheese-flavored plastic in comparison.

              Hey now some of us grew up on Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product that can’t really be called cheese on it’s own.

                I lived in Wisconsin for a year. Most supermarkets had 3 types of cheese:
                yellow, orange and mixed. They all tasted the same.

                    Not really, good for them. However, very few people eat the actual cheese entered in those competitions, as its expensive stuff. I don’t mean to and I sure I didn’t doubt that there might be some good cheeses in America.

                    No, I mean literally most standard, supermarket American cheese cant be sold in the UK or the EU as cheese, much like the chocolate out there. Unless things have changed, its not a meme.

          Here in America we eat freedom cheese, meaning cooperations are free to add whatever they want to our foods unlike in the EU, where certain chemicals are not allowed in your foods. Yay for obesity. We have Pink Slime and chemically sprayed potatoes to prevent black spots on our McDonald’s Freedom Fries.
