Customer: "WHY CAN"T I GET 'MURICAN CHEESE SLICED OFF OF A GIANT BLOCK!!!"
Me working at a grocery store: "Sir, American cheese is just oil, dairy whey powder, yellow food coloring and salt chilled into a gelatinous goop that's pressed into plastic sheeting. If you want American cheese from its more natural form I'll grab you a can of aerosol spray cheese on aisle 6."
We actually had big blocks of American cheese you could get sliced. But it was such a massive pain. If you didn't put paper between the slices, they'd just re-congeal...yum
