    I'm starting to wonder how your supermarket cheese offers look: American cheese, Swiss cheese with holes, Swiss cheese without holes (which might just be american cheese?), and... that's it?

          Here's a good quick guide to the main groups of British cheeses:

            the supermarkets are great. on one side, you have the "real cheese", or the expensive stuff that doesn't come in individual slices.

            then you have the processed cheese section, where you can get things like string cheese, american cheese, and "swiss" cheese.

            this is all refrigerated, mind you.

            if you go the the aisles with the crackers, you can get cheese wiz.

                Amercan cheese is apparently classified as a very young cheddar, which is shredded and blended with a variety of stabililizers, flavor modifiers, emulsifiers, etc., to create a bland cheese 'product' whose cheif virtue is the ability to melt smoothly and attractably. A true industrial cheese.

                I will admit to liking it.

                      Cheeze Whiz?

                      Cheddar (or other flavors) that has been 'modified' to a consistancy and texture slightly thicker than whipped cream, and sold in an aerosol can.
