The wider world when they think of American cheese: yellow shiny shrink wrapped oily substance, wiggles like rubber
Me thinking of the American cheese I've eaten all of my life: white, dry-ish, cut from actual blocks at the deli, feels like, well, cheese
Dunno if it's some regional thing or what. The only place I see yellow American is at chain restaurants.
Also, related and timely:

Where I'm from, we have access to sharp american cheese. It slaps.
Pointing to kraft singles and insisting that "american cheese bad" is like pointing to Little Caesars and insisting that pizza is a lousy food.
Little Caesars is pretty darn good, considering it's 1/3 the cost of any other chain.
My point being that if someone didn't like little caesars and concluded that pizza is bad, that opinion is terribly uninformed
Oh, sorry, didn't mean to confuse things. Your point was clear!
