that ain't even actual amercian cheese (like burger joints use).. this is the individually-wrapped 'singles' garbage.
As a non-American, this individually-wrapped garbage is the only type of American cheese that exists over here
no wonder american cheese is shit on elsewhere.
i suppose you could go to mcdonalds or bk, order a cheeseburger with extra slices 'on the side' or something.
Thats not different, quality wise
Here’s one from a food manufacturer who also has cream cheese, fresh cheeses, snacks, sandwiches etc. in my short research, this one has the most "bad stuff" in it. Currently in Austria, so Google spit out that:

Processed cheese preparation in slices at least 35% fat in dry matter. Ingredients: cheese, water, skimmed milk powder, butter, milk protein, emulsifying salts (sodium citrate, sodium phosphate, polyphosphates), sweet whey powder, salt, acidifier: citric acid, coloring: paprika extract.
Here I have the cheapest budget version of American cheese:

Ingredients: 50% cheese, water, skimmed milk powder, milk protein, butter, emulsifying salts (sodium citrate, sodium phosphate, polyphosphates), sweet whey powder, non-iodized salt, spice extract, acidifier: citric acid.
Wait. Aren't these the same thing?
real american cheese is mostly made from a mix of other real cheeses, processed with some other stuff into a new thing.
the individually wrapped slices are less actual cheese and may not even contain enough to legally be called “cheese”.
so basically there are really different grades of american cheese, it is not all exactly the same thing. see the labels chart in the middle of this article:

At least Kraft singles are just cheddar cheese with extra milk and some shit to keep it solid. It's essentially a solidified bechamel sauce.
i didn’t know there was a difference! thank u to the cheese fans for educating a layman like myself
