They're just called Cheese slices over here (UK), which i always thought was kind of odd. I would've expected it to have been called that in the US, and american cheese everywhere else!
Yeah, it's also called "cheese slices" and not "American cheese" in France.
I'm from America, and I just called it "cheese slices."
I always thought American cheese was it's own type, but I guess not.
The best known processed cheese in the United States is marketed as American cheese.... It is orange, yellow, or white in color and mild in flavor, with a medium-firm consistency, and melts easily. It is typically made from a blend of cheeses, most often Colby and Cheddar.
Hehe, that reminds me, when I was a kid I refused to eat yogurt. My mom once asked me why they disgusted me so much and I said "that's because it's bacteria's vomit". She corrected me "well technically, it's more like bacteria's shit".
That failed to convince me to have some xD
This makes me terribly sad. There is nothing more refreshing than a nice, thick, whole milk yoghurt mixed with Monster drink. It's the perfect mix of caffeine and one-celled organisms!

I'll make you sadder: I don't know what Monster drink even is!
(That was just a phase though. Afterwards I realised most of the stuff we it is just as gross if not worse, and got over it. I only had yogurt with whole berries in them, or big pieces of fruit, though.)

Monster is a sweet, carbonated, "energy" drink. I found out that if you pour a carbonated drink into yoghurt it "traps" the bubbles, so you get a mild tingle on your tongue when you drink it, even the next day. The cool/sad thing is that when my brother went to Paris a couple of years ago there were people in the streets handing out free samples of a carbonated yoghurt drink. I should have patented my idea when I had the chance ...

Interesting. Since we're talking about gross stuff, I used to dip my bread in coke.
I've never tried the carbonated Yop-like think you're referring to, but I've tried the milk juices (fruit juices with milk in them). Like, orange or pineapple juice, but with milk in it. They're very smooth and nice, although I'll take regular fruit over it any day.
I guess it's kind of how you've got sherbet here, which is like sorbet but with milk.
Which I very annoying because the stores here don't have sorbet, only sherbet, which I can't have due to the milk. On the other hand I got an ice-cream machine for Christmas. Woo!
Made ice-cream every day for a week, then I stopped because my brain was freezing. But with the summer coming I can see making some more again ^_^
my French Canadian buddy introduced me to Poutine, Its french fries, fresh cheese curds and hot gravy.... when you have a few beers in you this stuff seems like the best tasting food on Earth.... also horrible for you... I am surprised its not common in Wisconsin seems like something we would have stolen by now. http://neatorama.cachefly.net/images/2007-01/poutine.jpg

Thanks! I've had one energy drink before (I can't remember the name. It was pink). I found it much to sweet and chemical-tasting. I can see how it would taste better mixed with something milder like yogurt though, but I certainly don't want to try.

I'm glad I skipped breakfast today. That's just nasty!
My wife hates cheese, especially the smell, and she totally freaks out when she has to touch cheese (or cheese touches her; her siblings used to throw cheese crusts on her for fun).
Unless it's melted, then she thinks it's delicious.
I like cheese, but only young cheese, usually of the Gouda or Emmental variety.
Other cheeses I often enjoy are feta and mozzarella, but of course as ingredients for larger dishes and not on sandwiches.
I've tried Marmite, which as I hear is close to Vegemite.
It's too salty, although it's otherwise tasty I guess. I can see adding it to stuff instead of salt but I never add salt in anything, so I am forced not to have it ever again.
How sad.
Well, everything tastes better with bacon I suppose...

I'm pretty sure most things on there are jokes... right??
Also, special coffee! (I'm sorry for derailing this thread further, but grossing out puzzlebox is too much fun )
This is the first one that hasn't grossed me out (finally)!
Stephen Fry gave Prince Charles civet crap coffee as a wedding gift... I mean, what do you give the man who has everything, including title of heir to the British Empire? Civet crap coffee.

I do not think we could ever be friends...... just kidding.
I think he won't have that drink with you in the end, Lena.

In Wisconsin almost every restaurant and pub offers fried beer battered cheddar cheese curds.... Horrible for you but so so so good....

Not today sir, no.
Monster is an energy drink, like Amp or Red Bull (all of which I have not tried.)

You crazy American folk will never cease to amaze and disgust me.

That's what we do! But we definitely don't have a monopoly over awful culinary monstrosities. =]
I heartily endorse this statement.
Hahahaha, touche sir.
I very much agree - I've never been able to stomach the stuff, and it smells rancid!

OT: I also love Red Leicester! And Cheese on Toast!
Frito scoops dunked in nutella. My brother swears by it.
Also ... and yes, she really made it.
...
voodoo doughnut maple bacon bars.
i love them so much.

Although I do approve of "Sparkle Bacon: Presumably what you get when you thin-slice and smoke a vampire from Twilight."
I second this approval and add some bacon gumballs.
