cheap cheese why is it so disgusting???

its made with oil bases rather than dairy and most contain dairy substitute.

Read the label closely before you buy it!!!

"Processed cheese FOOD" or "pasteurized process cheese" or just pasturized cheese? These is a difference. If it says cheese food or cheese food product it's not even cheese!

YOU HAVE TO LOOK CLOSELY OR YOU WILL BUY A PRODUCT THAT RESEMBLES CHEESE. It is nasty!!!!

For instance Velveeta isn't cheese,

Due to the processing and additives, some softer varieties cannot legally be labeled as "cheese" in many countries, including the United States and Britain, and so are sold as "cheese food", "cheese spread", or "cheese product", depending primarily on the amount of cheese, moisture, and milkfat present in the final product.

In the United States processed cheese is defined, categorized, and regulated by the Food & Drug Administration under the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Title 21 (Food and Drugs), Section 133 (Cheeses and Cheese Related Products).[1][4] Pasteurized process cheese can be made from a single cheese or a blend of several cheeses. Cream, milkfat, water, salt, artificial color, and spices may also be added. The mixture is heated with an emulsifier, poured into a mold, and allowed to cool. The definitions include:

Pasteurized process cheese (Includes "American Cheese" and "Pasteurized process American cheese"),[1] (e.g., "Kraft Deli Deluxe American Cheese")

Pasteurized process cheese food, which contains as little as 51% cheese

Pasteurized process cheese spread

Pasteurized process cheese product (e.g. Kraft Singles, Velveeta), which contain less than 51% cheese

The various definitions are mainly used to distinguish minimum/maximum amounts of cheese ingredient, moisture content, and milkfat.

Well I'm not sure what kind of cheap cheese you are talking about. But it is probably because it is processed cheese. Are you talking about Velveeta? That is very hard to grate because it is soft.

I don't even know what cheap cheese is.

I've bought all types of cheese in various price ranges and had none of the problems you described.

Is the cheap cheese you're buying from some type of "factory seconds" store, past its prime?

I know what you are talking about. Cheap cheese has PLASTIC in it...my kids learned that in high school along with tooth paste has seaweed in it and others I can't remember off hand, but it is true.

Its the grease in it. Nothing less.nothing more. The fattier the cheese the smoother it is.

crappy cheese is made from oil and water, good cheese has milk as its first ingredient.
