I put Dorito's flaming on my burger, big success, will replicate again in the future.
Muenster is superior to american in almost every way. Better flavor, and it gets melty yet stringy at the same time. With american, as you eat it, it goos up at the end of everything you're eatting so the last bite is a nasty glob of american.
American cheese does have its place. I present to you Shady Glen in Manchester, CT, home of the Bernice Original. 4 slices of a "good" american, on one patty. Cooked on the griddle until crispy and then folded up. You can also order a side of just the crisped cheese.
They also make their own Ice cream on premises. The place is straight up locked in the 1950's.
There's a spot up in Napa of all places that does a burger like this. Never been but I really want to.
Behold the Beefless ‘Impossible Whopper’ (Published 2019)
Burger King is introducing a Whopper made with a vegetarian patty from the start-up Impossible Foods. The deal is a big step toward the mainstream for start-ups trying to mimic and replace meat.www.nytimes.com
I'm interested in trying something like that just to see. Couldn't tell if April fool's or not

Burger King’s chief marketing officer, Fernando Machado, said that in the company’s testing so far, customers and even employees had not been able to tell the difference between the old meaty Whopper and the new one.
Thats because there are other better cheeses for quesadillas.American is superior to cheddar on anything where the cheese melts. Cheddar is garbage for melting. Ever make a quesadilla with cheddar? Oil fucking runs out of it.
American is really just mild cheddar with an emulsifier to keep it from separating when it melts which is what makes it good for burgers, grilled cheese, quesadillas, etc. Personally I'm not looking for a bunch of funky cheese flavor on my burger and if I do I'll have a blue cheese and bacon one.
Kraft singles are what i think of when people talk about American cheese. Its conplete and utter shit and probably thr best seller by a huge margin. So it all gets lumped in as that.That's a key point. Kraft Singles are hot garbage. GOOD American is a decent basic cheese.
