This is why you can never go wrong simply choosing Kraft singles.

They spelt it wrong but Double Gloucester is a good one. It’s cheddar but better.

I’m from Wisconsin and I’m pretty shocked at the massive variety.

How do they keep so much stock without it spoiling? Surely the turnover isn’t that great with so much variety, half the people don’t know more than a dozen of these cheeses, maybe fewer…

American cheese is a processed cheese resulting from Cheddar cheese, Colby cheese, washed curd cheese, or granular cheese, or any mixture of two or more of these. The result is then formed into small sheets and individually wrapped called “singles”.

You are SO lucky! The last time I saw a proper cheese shop was when I was a still a kid. I miss going with my Mom and getting to sample so many thin slices of cheese. And then picking out a few and I couldn’t wait to get home to have more.

I think we need to start with "What is cheese?" and then ask what is processed cheese.

Cheese is when you get the protein in milk to clump together and drain the water out. The clump is called a curd. The varieties of cheese come from adding things like salt, bacteria, extra fat, smoke, aging time, etc.

Processed cheese is when you take some real cheese and bulk it up with vegetable gums, milk powder, and other low-cost ingredients. That reduces the price but makes it more bland. It's not much better or worse in terms of nutrition. And crucially, the gum additives make the cheese melt evenly. Most hard cheeses leak oil when they melt. Most soft cheeses are too strongly flavored and too expensive.

The specific Swiss-style singles will depend on whatever that company decides to add in to get the price, flavor, and melt they want. Another company can use a different recipe and call it the same thing.

Replying to AUniquePerspective (#1,435,418)

It is made from other cheeses that have already been formed. Traditional cheese is ground, combined with emulsifying agents and other ingredients, mixed and heated until it forms a "melted homogeneous" mixture. It is then formed and packaged.

pro-tip, when cutting cheeses for your board at home, make sure to either

a) cut your blue cheeses last! OR

b) clean the knife and cutting board thoroughly before you cut any other cheeses.

The bacteria that make bleu cheese blue will turn your other cheeses VERY RAPIDLY if cross-contaminated.
