Those chefs you mention … can they contain up to 49% bullshit* and still be sold as chefs?
Comment on BIG (like Americans) IF TRUE
LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 hours agoWhat? That’s all horseshit information if you know anything about cheese. Yellow American cheese sells off the cheddar lie, but white American cheese sells everywhere as well. Any chef anywhere in the world will tell you someone who calls American cheese not cheese is an idiot outside of poshness. It’s all shit for brains bullshit developed for making hate, like hating trans people, gays, gypsys or Jews. There is no difference. All of it is meant to make people dislike others for the name of conquering others.

the other 50% is mostly water. anerican cheese is basically just a hardened cheese sauce. it’s cheese emulsified with water or something similar to make it melt easier. it’s not some unholy amalgamation of horror. it’s just melty cheese.

Best I can tell, the criteria for calling something “cheese” in America is containing 51% cheese.
That’s just ridiculous. Either it’s cheese l, or it’s a product.

I’m unsure how most of what you said relates to the parent comment. Did you forget to drink your coffee before commenting?
LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 hours ago
I’m saying it’s a bs statement. It isn’t avout coffee. Tell me 19 cheeses that age and go from white to yellow. You can start by saying cheddar doesn’t. There are near 0 and if you think that’s not true, you are being lied too. Make a cheese, it won’t randomly turn unless you add something that makes it. It’s like saying copper turns to brass on its own. It doesn’t.

Aged gouda starts out mostly white and will definitely become a dull light brownish-orange as it ages/dries out. Cheddar, while not considered a white cheese (naturally yellow, that is - not necessarily with added color) will also turn a darker color when aged. I think that’s what the parent commenter was saying.

You seem to know a lot about bologna and cheese.

Yeah, it gets fucking annoying to see the Europeans mock American cheese based on their knowledge of Kraft fucking Singles (literally not legally allowed to be labeled cheese, btw) every single time someone mentions American cheese on the Internet.
There’s some great American cheeses. You just don’t find them wrapped in plastic, next to the butter at the grocery store.

They do the same thing with beer, calling us ignorant and then saying or beer is shit in reference to Bud Light. America has tons of great beer and cheese.

it’s like when people say Australian beer sucks because of fosters, or that Japanese cooking sucks because the gas station sushi in your landlocked nation is shit. it’s very disingenuous.
