PREPARE TO BE GROSSED OUT

[sally]

While American cheese has no business being on a cheese platter served with wine, there are some things that just need it, (American pasteurized cheese that is, not the cheese product or individually wrapped singles). I don't agree that you can make a proper philly cheesesteak or baked macaroni and cheese with out American cheese. The best ones I've had always have a blend of cheeses including American.
