Googled Velveeta after posting this to get an image to compare to yours, and OP's image came up as the first result.

This is not 'Cheese' as Europeans know it. It's mainly colby melted down and added to gelatin and then reformed. It's only purpose is being an easy melt cheese, you really ONLY melt it for cheese sauces and the like. You don't eat it on crackers or on sandwiches or anything like that.
That's why it looks the way it does.

American cheese is similar to Velveeta, it is made with gelatin.
There is a shitty mexican version sold in mexican markets and dollar stores labeled as no-melt american. no idea what that shits made of, it's like bad yellow plastic and if you try to melt it it loses all flavor and gets nasty.

velveeta is an attempt at reacreating the flavor of government cheese by adding fake flavors to normal cheese and then adding starch to make it the same texture.

>British colonists made cheddar cheese soon after their arrival in North America. By 1790, American-made cheddars were being exported back to England. According to Robert Carlton Brown, author of The Complete Book of Cheese, "The English called our imitation Yankee, or American, Cheddar, while here at home it was popularly known as yellow or store cheese".[1]
>The Oxford English Dictionary lists the first known usage of "American cheese" as occurring in the Frankfort, Kentucky, newspaper The Guardian of Freedom in 1804. The next usage given is in 1860 by Charles Dickens in his series The Uncommercial Traveller.

American cheese is 2 cheeses melted together to make cheese? What part of this makes any fucking sense?

[Anonymous No.14282433]

>>14282421
I didn't think blending would be that hard of a concept, but you take a cheddar and a colby, and sometimes you add a little bit (But only a little bit) of extra things, sometimes including a spoonful of gelatin for extra melt, and you blend them together into one mass of cheese. American Cheese is a category, not one specific thing. The fact that you start with already existing cheeses and blend them into a new form is what makes it distinct.
"American Cheese flavored cheese product" is what most people think of, but that's actually just a cheese-like dairy product that starts with basic dairy components and artificial ingredients and is created to be what it is from the start. It's also basically just cheese flavored plastic.

It is (was) a processed cheese product, similar to velveeta, but made with top quality American cheddar cheese.

Thankfully EBT can only be used on the card you get it on from the govt. You can't take it out from an ATM or anything like that, your only real limitations on food purchases is if it's hot, pre-cooked food. There's no real limit to spending that EBT on junk food or other crap that actually isn't good for you, WIC on the other hand is very technical and specific on what you're allowed to buy but that's to ensure expecting or already established mothers don't get stupid shit that either isn't healthy or ultimately isn't food whatsoever.
I'm really surprised the majority who've been in this thread don't understand how this shit works. I can agree though, that most poor people either are too stupid with food prep/cooking, or that poor people most likely don't have the best ways to cook for their advantages. I consider myself just barely above the poverty line but hell I'm luckier than most that I'm able to even think about cooking and how I want to prep it, let alone have the money to put aside for kitchen utensils and shit.
