People would just lie in the shitpost sub? What a preposterous idea!

This is a shitpost community. Screenshot here appears to be Twitter and so the context isn’t quite the same. Without context, any shitpost potential it has falls a little flat.

It is called lemmyshitpost, not lemmybullshitpost. So they have clearly a point. /s
KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
This is just a statistical error. The average American eats 0 pounds of cheese per day. Cheese Georg, who eats thirty billion eight hundred thirty-four million pounds per day, is an outlier and should not have been counted.

Those a rookie numbers. If you’re not slamming 100+ lbs of the orange every day, can you really call yourself American?

NFW I’m getting anywhere near slamming Chief Cheeto. Proudly “un-American” here.

Had to look it up, about 40 lbs per year per person www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/…/113732

If you’re eating 90lb of cheese a day, there’s no shit at all

Not so, once you’re over cheese unity the cheese flows like water.
dektep@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
no it’s true
kat_angstrom@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
It’s true, a much smaller number than most of us expected.

TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The average human eats like 3 pounds of food a day iirc. If even a pound of that was cheese you’d probably die within two weeks. I don’t get the joke in this post.

You know what? Unpopular opinion time.
Cheddar is a god-tier cheese and puts European cheese to shame.
It can be made sharp or mild, hard or creamy, white or yellow,. It easily melts in a perfect way. It keeps incredibly well. Pairs well with almost everything. It can be improved by aging or smoking (and holy shit if you have not tried a good smoked cheddar you are missing out on life)
The only reason it’s snubbed as common and low-quality is because it’s cheap and used so ubiquitously. But the reason for that is because, again, cheddar is a god-tier cheese.
And yes, I know cheddar was first created in England, but the US is responsible for industrializing and popularizing it.
Ozymandias88@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
Dude, cheddar cheese was popularised by Henry II. The U.S. didn’t even exist then
ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
That industrial polymeriszed milk sold in the US we see over here in England as “American Cheese” is barely considered food stuff let alone cheddar.
Propper cheddar from England that’s actually made for human consumption (not the cheap stuff or even the big brands sold here) will win over industrialised cheese in a one-on-one taste test hands down every single time.
Propper cheddar is on the same tier as other European cheeses and are chosen as the centre piece of a meal course because of the distinct flavours and textures.
However, the industrial “cheese” the US makes is perfect as an ingredient or topping in US fast food cuisine; it adds a cheese flavour and texture without trying to compete with the other flavours.
Hence why cheese singles or the European alternative of a thin slice of Edam are perfect for steam-melting on top of a burger.
I am fully willing to change my stance on this but I’ll need convincing, if I find myself in the US where should I look for the best cheeses from the different varieties of available in the US?

It sounds like you’re describing your hate for American Cheese not Cheddar cheese which is different, even in America.
Poppa_Mo@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I bet you have an air tight hobby coffin you hang out in so you can breathe your own farts all day.
CptOblivius@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Sharp and aged cheddar is amazing. I’ve tried cheese from all over and it does compete. Still my go to and Ive had a decent variety in my day.
TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
People don’t like cheddar? There’s like five cheeses I would say anything bad about. Cheddar is nowhere near that list.
Chee_Koala@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Maybe I haven’t found the right one, but the cheap cheddar here is like ‘fantasy cheese’ or 'cheese product or whatever you want to call it, and the expense cheddar is more expensive then a range of local cheeses with similar or better characteristics, while the local alternoves are often cheaper. If locally it can fill your needs then power to you. As long as we can al enjoy our cheese in high quality and relative peace, everyone is winning. But in my locality it feels like I’m overpaying for underperformance.
Hawanja@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Yeah but cheese-like product is fucking good and tastes awesome on a cheese burger while Venezuelan Beaver Cheese or whatever the fuck they eat in Europe is nasty.
LilB0kChoy@reddthat.com 2 weeks ago
This is how I feel about American cheese, but the real stuff. Not the crap Kraft sells (other than their deli style slices).
A slice of real American cheese melted on anything is amazing!
cattywampas@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
American cheese is just cheese mixed with milk and an emulsifier like citric acid. It’s as much cheese as sausage is meat.

Did you eat your 90 lbs of cheese today? Gotta do your patriotic duty.

I shoved a couple of blocks down my throat during the national anthem. For lunch I microwaved a couple of blocks and added them to my coffee. My remaining blocks I’ll probably have in a smoothie.

90 lbs a day.
I call bullshit.
Exatron@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
It’s an average. That means there’s at least one American out there eating more, possibly far more, than 90 lbs of cheese a day.
finalarbiter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Fromage georg out here eating 10,000 pbs of cheese a day, skewing the average
A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Man I wish I could afford to have 90lbs a cheese of day.
I’d finally experience happiness, both by having immense amounts of cheese, and from dying from eating immense amounts of cheese.
TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Is this a photo where the cheese wears camouflage or something? I’m trying really hard.
It’s very hard to say this, it really pains me, but… Here it goes… I agree with the French guy.

Can you imagine how much it would cost if was actually real cheese? That’s like 40% water by volume.

Ja, maar, Dan heeft Nederland ook wereld beroende kaas, toch?
TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Ja, flinke export ook, maar smaakt niet zo goed als in Nederland. Niet te vergelijken. Gouda bijvoorbeeld. Lekker in Nederland, plastic in buitenland.

No, Americans do not eat 90 lbs per day. She was making a joke.

Le fromage americain?
I am mostly sort of a cheese snob but just this morning had Cuban cheese toast - Cuban bread with white american cheese - not swiss - and butter, pressed in the sandwich press. Such nostalgic food for me and utterly delicious, utterly without nutrition. Has it with a big ol’ cafe con leche. Bliss.
DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I could easily do a pound a day without thinking.
That’s why I stopped buying cheese. The only thing I buy is 1 pound of grated Kraft cheese-analog per week.
