If they didn’t they would all melt together cause that stuff isn’t real cheese.

They could use parchment paper I think.

Was just about to say this. A decent amount of brands do use paper instead of plastic to separate individual slices, but I’ve only seen it with real cheese. Never with American cheese

Also before anyone says something, no, American cheese is not real cheese. In fact, it contains less than 50% cheese. It is officially considered a “pasteurized processed American cheese food”.

Also it’s only good for grilled cheese, bacon egg and cheese sandwiches, or melting onto leftover spaghetti. I will die on this hill.

I would go so far as to argue it’s only good on grilled cheeses. Maybe the occasional American style cheeseburger. Other than that Cheddar is superior.

And honestly I prefer swiss for my burgers I just never have it on hand.
