Fake!

I love cheese. Let me say that again for emphasis. I LOVE CHEESE! Being a true wisconsinite I have nothing but the utmost passion for the delectable substance known as cheese. Before my college days, there was nothing better then sitting down with a bag of cheese curds from the local grocery store, a handful of pretzels, and the remote. And you knew the cheese curds were fresh and real because they had that squeeky sound every time you took a bite. Sadly though, I have been forced to move away from fresh cheese curds to the processed Kraft singles simply because of my money situation. You can tell that the singles are fake, processed cheese. They disintegrate in your mouth and leave a terrible after taste that lingers in your mouth the rest of the day. Real cheese stays in your mouth long enough to be savored. I have to believe that the fake cheese though, provides me with the essential preservatives that a growing boy needs; enough HGH to keep me strong and developing at a faster then normal rate. I hope some day to return to my favorite food, REAL cheese. If it wasn't for the fact that I'm a broke college student, I may be able to enjoy a fresh brick of aged cheddar right now. But sadly this is not the case. Instead I'm forced to enjoy cheese in its less popular varieties, singles, nips, and of course whiz. The article I have linked to this post is by an author who agrees with me. Not only does he love cheese as much as I do, but he also believes that we are settling for fake processed cheese instead of going the extra mile for good cheese. American processed cheese is either sliced, put into a cracker, or crammed into an aerosol can simply for our convenience and not for health reasons. We choose these items because are lazy or do not know better. We (and myself included) need to get back to health, real foods that don't have whiz as the last word of the title. We need to get back to what we are used to and what is good for us!
