I'm starting a burger business and what is it about American cheese that make it essitienal? Is there a number 1 brand? Is white american better? Help me out ck

>>21468615 (OP)
>that make it essitienal?
Its not. “Melted cheese = good” is the result of a 50-year brainwashing campaign to get rid of industrial dairy waste.

Yes there are brands that melt better than others. You will have to buy the 250,000 bux package to find out which one it is though.

>>21468615 (OP)
i would tell you which cheese to get, but i don't trust that you're not a food terrorist.
i will not risk the correct cheese for a burger.

>>21468615 (OP)
>I'm starting a burger business
no you're not
>what is it about American cheese that make it essitienal
it isn't. cheddar it perfectly acceptable. american gets used because it's an all rounder choice, but combos like 'mushroom swiss' exist because specific cheeses can be used with certain ingredients to great effect.
>Is there a number 1 brand?
it doesn't matter
>Is white american better?
white and yellow are the same, pick what works for your aesthetic (use both even)
>Help me out ck
idk why, this is all made up anyway

>>21468645
>>Is there a number 1 brand?
>it doesn't matter
you are wrong on this.
it's literally irrefutable that you are wrong on this, but i don't trust that there are not food terrorists in the thread.

>American cheese

>>21468658
the superiority has caused some controversy.

>>21468656
what are they then, proof that there are superior restaurant supply brands for american cheese

>>21468615 (OP)
The best burgers I've made were with provolone. It's the perfect burger cheese in my book. Melts well, strong flavor but not overpowering, and best of all, it usually comes in a circle, like it was designed for burgers.

>>21468677
>what are they then
not getting the info, food terrorist.

Deli counter sliced is the best variety and then Land Of Lakes

>>21468615 (OP)
>what is it about American cheese that make it essitienal?
It goes with the other poor quality ingredients that Americans use, synthetic plastic cheese just helps cover it up.

>>21468625
Cheese has a history before you were eating the five pound brick of yellow government cheese your mother kept next to the fortified grape drink.

>>21468710
mmmmm love americhads

How much does the Australian beef industry pay you to discredit the USDA?

>>21468742
I don't need to be paid, the USDA does a good enough job themselves.

>>21468742
Those bants aren't quality enough to be Australian, and besides, they love American sloppa, can't get enough of it.

Assuming anyone itt is not trolling, I think the standard answer is Cooper Sharp White, available at fine supermarket deli counters.

>>21468754
Philadelphia psyop.

>gubmint cheeze thread
fucking niggers man...

>>21468759
Maybe, but you can't deny it's better that Boars Head fecal plague cheese. It's still astounding to see delis stocking Boars Head products in current year, especially with the risk of cross-contamination.

Unironically Boer's Head, the big blocks of course

>>21468768
The heat of the burger cooks the listeria?

>>21468615 (OP)
Brand isn't terribly important, just get the stuff that looks like this in the size of slices you want. White american doesn't taste any different and isn't as widely carried. If you need to get some from somewhere that isn't your normal supplier they may not have it.

I'm one of the people that thinks white american is superior to yellow and one of my most favorite cheeses.

>>21468615 (OP)
It's not. Muh american cheese is a massive meme. I have not found it better in any way when compared to other soft cheeses.

My standard burger cheese is colby jack, but depending on the toppings you can and should change it up.

>>21468615 (OP)
American cheese is terrible and you should not put it on your burgers. The white kind is worse than the yellow kind. Just kind of a thick, flavorless, gooey blob. Sort of like if someone blew their nose on your hamburger.

If you are going to use American cheese, you should use Kraft for the same reason you should use Hershey's chocolate when making smores. It will taste even more off if you use anything else.

>>21468884
it still tastes unique (assuming you get a decent one e.g. not Kraph Singles) and if that's the flavor in your mind nothing else will suffice. It's good. Melted in a steak & cheese or on a burger or just cold on a salami sandwich. No it's not the best or specialmost cheese in the world, but it is one of a kind

>>21468615 (OP)
Gruyere is way better than American cheese

>>21468888
>just a patty with white American cheese on it
I imagine this is approximately what they feed the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay.

>>21468895
that's very glib anon

>>21468904
The only way it could possibly be worse would be if you boiled the hamburger.

>>21468906
that wouldn't have been worse

>>21468884
The fact you would choose any kind of colby only proves you have shit taste.

>>21468919
Colby jack is a great cheese especially for the application you fucking retard.

>>21468921
Colby is what midwesterners (excluding Wisconsin) think ‘fancy cheese’ is.

Legitimately there is never a reason to use Colby over cheddar. 0 reasons.

>>21468895
>he thinks thats what a cockmeat sandwich is

Too optimistic, pal

>>21468615 (OP)
It melts super easy

Apparently Five Guys uses Kraft Ameican cheese, but how is that possible? It taste like nothing from what you buy at the store

>>21469457
They’re not using the little shits individually wrapped in plastic

love this stuff but it can be frustratingly hard to find. most stores don't seem to have it

>>21469141

The regular, standard, default cheese is “fancy”? Now you’re just projecting.
>there is never a reason to use Colby over cheddar.
It’s much more mild and creamy than cheddar you fucking retard. You can’t just put cheddar on any fucking burger. You can put colby jack on any burger.

>>21468672

I have tried every American cheese they make. Pic related is the best. Accept no substitutes.

>>21468615 (OP)
being non orthodox, in fact going balls deep into it, crunchy moist breaded chicken breast "burger", oven painted almost dark from the oven paint briox bread, semi-tender goat cheese, if it can be melted even better, crispy fresh lettuce, a nice and wide tomato slice, a bit of browned onions, and mayo/mayo-valentina sauce

>>21468615 (OP)
If you can't answer these basic fucking questions you don't deserve your business.

Why would you use american cheese over a slice of regular cheddar?

>>21470164
because I don't want a burger that tastes like fucking sharp cheddar cheese

>>21470461
You're dumb as fuck

>>21469677
People like you are good
>>21469829
People like you are bad

USA cheese is the only cheese that belongs on a burger. If you don't like it then just don't use any cheese. it's not needed anyway.

I hate a big piece of solid, strongly flavoured cheese on a burger because some pretentious hipster retard had to make improvements to the classic formula, and instead of using his brain to consider the unique qualities of ingredients and how they will affect the final product he just slaps a more expensive and prestigious slice of cheese on the burg.

>>21468615 (OP)
Cheese is for sissies, that's why the french and the british make so many varieties of it

>>21468615 (OP)
There are two products that are called "American cheese". Look at these two labels, one says "pasteurized process cheese" and the other says "pasteurized process cheese product". This legal distinction is important.
The former, the deli style American cheese like you'd purchase in blocks or from a deli counter, is actual colby and cheddar cheese with emulsifying salts to improve melting capability.
The latter, the "singles" product with individually wrapped squares, is essentially a cold coagulated cheese sauce that is made with added milk and whey. It is largely considered to be an inferior product to the deli style American cheese.

Thank you Chat GPT

>>21468615 (OP)
OP you may as well stock some American cheese but if I had a choice I’d eat a different cheese over American.

Also good luck with your with your business, did you decide on type of fries? Or are you going the chip route?

>>21469558
I like colby but I also like cheddar.
