The prized Italian cheese has long symbolized tradition. Now it faces political pressure — and rising prices

        I buy imported Parmesan cut straight from the block for pasta, and savor it in each dish as it is expensive. Excuse yourself.

        I don’t think the people downvoting know that there’s really people out here putting American craft singles slices on their spaghetti. I should know, I’m related to a couple of them. Seen it a good chunk of my life, almost always in poorer homes, from the southern US and a few times here in the midwest.

          I’ve never seen that. American cheese is for bologna sandwiches or for melting in burgers

          It’s all fucking confusing.

          I am talking admit cheese made in the USA, kraft singles aren’t even legally allowed to be called cheese

          He’s not talking about “American Cheese,” he’s talking about e.g. Kraft grated (fake) “parmesan” cheese made in America.

              Nothing wrong with it, if you’re just making something basic. Not everything needs to be cuisine.

              But putting Kraft singles on pasta is a crime.

          You don’t. You can literally find them making dinner on TikTok.

            Just like all the thousands of people eating tide pods? Or maybe it’s just rage bait…

              Is it really that hard to stomach the idea of melting American cheese on pasta?

            Oh I thought you meant “American cheese” a la Velveeta. Yeah, we definitely put shitty grated fake Parm on stuff. It’s an acquired taste/texture lol. I don’t recommend trying to grate Velveeta.
