Cheddar is not really orange. Sort of off-white.
I was imagining something coloured like an orange.

Yeah, he couldn't know that the orange stuff I talked about tastes like plastic.
I'm not going to declare the entirety of American cheese as shit, though. Just sayin'.

Another thing that was already mentioned comes to mind. Bread.
From what I know American bread is mostly for people without teeth. If you have teeth you'll love German bread. Or not, but you should give it a try.

No, there is a variety of cheddar here in America that is clearly orange (you can really tell when its sliced, which I personally don't care a wit for. I prefer aged sharp white cheddar myself (from Cabot, as I've mentioned).

I don't know how its processed, but it does seem to have a lower melting point. Which is why I think restaurants prefer to use it.

Of course, you might be talking about Kraft Singles too. Which are by far, the worst cheese in existance. They are yellow/orange too, and they indeed do taste like plastic.

Yeah German bread is good but it'll totally kill you if eat it every day. Or make you like a million kgs. It's so ridiculously heavy on the stomach.
And you can't really make much like a sandwich out of it.

I'm well aware of that. Where in my reply did I imply that he wasn't?

When you replied to him with what 'you get in American supermarkets'?

Whatever.

I think you all may be talking about 'American Cheese' Velveeta, or Kraft Singles.

None of which are actually cheese at all, but some kind of synthetic cheese-esque monster that's not even made with milk, but rather oils. THOSE are pretty terrible.

Edit: Kinnnnda wish you guys would stop insulting American foods. We ALSO have access to heavy breads here. I tend to prefer the softer ones for sandwiches and what not, outside of subs/'rolls', however. But the thicker/heavier stuff is totally great when it comes to that type of sandwich, and is much better if you're just eating it with butter.

Hey now. Take a slice, spread some butter on it and add some cold cuts, maybe a few slices of pickle and some mustard, top it off with another slice and you're good to go.

This reminds me that I need to find a better bakery, the bread in the ones around my house is either ridiculously soft and spongy with a thin rubbery crust or will go dry within a matter of hours.

You ever see Red Leicester? That's about the colour of American orange cheeses.

I think some brands actually add food coloring to their cheddars for some reason or another...
