Let's Talk About Cheese.

Hey Friends! And by friends I mean hi Mom, and my 8 classmates that read this blog. Long time no see. Today, I'd like to skip past the filler and get right to the point: What are your thoughts on American cheese? See the other night, my boyfriend asked me if I had any food ("FEEEED MEEE" in caveman voice), to which I replied, "Sure I can make you a grilled cheese with American." He replied in disgust and said something to the effect that he would rather die than eat American cheese. My reaction? I almost broke up with him right on the spot.

You see, I love cheese. I love really fancy cheese that smells slightly like a dirty old Italian man that hasn't showered in 2 months. I love cream cheese on my bagels and I love fresh shaved parmesan on my pasta. I love gouda on a turkey sandwich and nothing makes me weak at the knees like fresh mozzarella on a margarita pizza. However, the tried and true way to my heart is American cheese. Preferably as part of macaroni and cheese, on top of a cheeseburger or fit perfectly between two slices of bread and grilled. And don't even get me started on how good it tastes on a breakfast sandwich.

Once upon a time when I lived in an apartment in San Francisco with my girlfriends, we had a cheese drawer. That's right, a drawer in our refrigerator dedicated solely to cheese. It was glorious (see photo above).

What's your favorite type of cheese? What are your thoughts on American cheese-ya or nay?
