Many people swear by american cheese on burgers, but I just can’t do it. Cheddar is far superior.
mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
American cheese is just mild cheddar and colby jack, with an emulsifier added to help it blend together and melt smoothly. You can literally make bootleg American cheese by shredding the two together, adding an emulsifier (like sodium citrate) and heating until they melt.
That same emulsifier is what makes it so good for burgers. Aged cheddar tends to melt into clumps, and tends to get greasy as the milk fat separates out of the solids. The emulsifier helps the cheese solids and oils stay together, making it less clumpy and greasy.

Some nice mature cheddar, proper stuff from the west country.

I love different types of cheese, but on a burger the more important thing is the quality of the beef. Only time I don’t mind American cheese. Plus it melts just right.

American cheese is made from cheddar

American cheese is barely cheese, and I don’t just mean krafts singles

Then you are just ignorant. It’s a big country with many food cultures.

I assume if it’s on a burger it’s sliced cheese. Was is it white? Do they bleach it?
Coolcoder360@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Cow Milk is white. Orange cheese is colored with annato. (Yes, yellow cheddar is colored with annato or other coloring. Same with yellow American cheese)
Natural unaged cheese color is the same as milk, white or a light off white.

White American Cheese … is there such a thing? … can it be called Cheese?
expatriado@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
American cheese without the colorant, thus perfectly healthy
db2@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
American cheese isn’t a bad thing when it’s the amalgam of several other cheeses. When it’s just oil and binders it isn’t even cheese though. There’s no good way to know before buying it since they can call both cheese.

It's still cheese "product" though, right?

American cheese is a travesty, but with that said, most American cheese I’ve had has been eating Kraft singles as a kid… so I may just be biased

Legally, in the US? Probably.
Try it on a European tourist as a prank.
blackbelt352@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
It depends but technically yes. American cheese is pretty simple, one or multiple cheeses blended with sodium citrate and some milk to create a very smoothly melting cheese. I actually made some myself last night by melting a bunch of very sharp cheddar cheese into some milk and adding a few slices of a decent American cheese to get the sodium citrate. I basically made a really good borderline cheese whiz for the sandwiches I made.
Kraft Singles, (which is what everyone likely has in mind for plastic fake cheese) however don’t contain enough cheese as an ingredient to call the final product an actual cheese, there is a lot of milk powder added in that tips the ratios into cheese product territory.

Made from white cheddar instead of yellow cheddar. Only difference is no annetto.
SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
It’s a process cheese product! My uncle used to work at a factory that made it so I know their process.
It was only about 40% cheese, and the cheese utilized was a blend of the bits left over from making things like cheese sticks. This was combined with milk, milk proteins, and several emulsifiers to keep it from separating into oil and solids as it solidifies and again if it’s melted.
It’s called a “pasteurized prepared cheese product” because it doesn’t contain enough cheese to legally call itself cheese or any variant of processed cheese.

Americans are starting to blur the line between food and edible biowaste
RBWells@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
It’s a good grilled cheese cheese, and the standard cheese on Cuban Cheese Toast here. Taste slightly sharper than the yellow one. Good also for queso dip in a pinch. There is also a Swiss flavor white American cheese, that also gets used because it melts better than real Swiss. Not good.
And no they aren’t cheese, though made of mostly cheese, they are “pasteurized processed cheese food”.

Math skills are only one part of intelligence. The one that counts in social interactions, which is the foundation for our happiness, is emotional intelligence.

I went to her profile expecting her to be the usual brainbroken conservative, and instead she’s like, complaining about a reply getting removed because it had the F slur in it, but she also replied to one of Elon’s AI-generated videos about his Tesla robot saying “Get the fuck out of here with this clanker bullshit”, so I respect it.
confused
bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
I’ve gotta think this is satire. Any American that’s ever had a burger has to know they charge more for a cheeseburger than a regular hamburger, regardless of the cheese type.

there’s two types of people who use “clanker”: clueless people who hate AI and want to make a Le Epic Star Wars Reference,
and people who think racism is funny and cool but don’t like the (shrinking, but still…) social consequences that come with racism, so they decide to be Ironically Racist™ to AI instead (see also the people saying shit like “wireback”, “screws will not replace us”, “rosa sparks”, fucking “george droyd”, etc)
i don’t think it takes much to figure out which group OOP is a part of
Glide@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
Slurs target a marginalized group. “Clanker” does not a marginalized group, because generative AI is not part of a marginalized group. It is not even alive, therefore it is not a slur in the sense tou!rr equating it to.
Please don’t call other people “clueless” if you don’t understand the things you’re getting worked up over. Equating non-thinking computer processing models to oppressed minorities is doing far more damage than anyone using the term “clanker,” ironically or otherwise.
Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
That’s overly diminutive of who uses it. Especially the idea that someone has to be clueless to hate ai and want to make a start wars reference
