American Sauce?? Made in America?

[Steve Kroll]

The only bonafide American Sauce I know of is BBQ sauce, and we don't even have a consensus on what that is.

Ask Teresa Heinz. She might know what "American" means!

It is loud, obnoxious and wears Bermuda shorts everywhere?

Don't forget sox with sandals too.

Argyle sox.

No that part of the outfit will be difficult...only white sox around the Ogre.

Ugly American Phrase Book:

No wonder nobody knew what I was talkinabout before! (reading menu) BOW - EE- OOF AY LAH PROVEN KALE ... WHAT THE HECK IS THAT? I want MEAT, not froo-froo salad crap! (to the waiter) JUST BRING ME A BURGER AND FRIES. YOU KNOW - PARLEY VOO FRENCH FRIES? YOU OUGHTA KNOW FRENCH FRIES, THEY'RE FRENCH!

(UAs operate on the unwritten rule, "When in doubt, SCREAM AND SHOUT!")

Now, now, there's nothing wrong with American Cheese. I even like the food-product sort on a burger or in a grilled cheese sandwich.

There is actual American cheese that is actual cheese - it is very similar to Colby. Or maybe it's Longhorn I mean. Maybe a bit of both.

 

[Caslon]

I'm gonna try a bottle (Either Heinz or Miracle Whips sauce) cause I'm tired of mixing French dressing with mayo and a little relish and dry onion flakes in order to make my burger "secret sauce".

 

[Sir_Loin_of_Beef]

It's the sauce you serve when you are eating an American. Spaghetti sauce with spaghetti, barbecue sauce with barbecue, taco sauce with tacos, enchilada sauce with enchiladas, etc.

Sooooo many responses running through my head right now.

We call it plastic cheese around here.

 

[Kitchen Barbarian]

YOU may call it plastic cheese ... the rest of us call it Grilled Cheese.

 

[taxlady]

Maybe not all the rest of us. I call it plastic cheese too. Actually, here in Quebec it's called "slices", because there isn't enough cheese in it to call it cheese.

 

[Kitchen Barbarian]

Again, not all American cheese is the processed food product. It is an actual cheese. And it is not remotely plastic. Though I have found that I do prefer the stuff you think is "plastic" for grilled cheese. I'll use either on a burger.

 

[Caslon]

American Cheese slices come in 2 forms. There are "American Cheese" slices made with 2% milk and "American Cheese food product" slices made mostly with vegetable oil and water and hardly any milk. I never buy the latter. My brother insists the two are about the same, we argue about it.

 

[CatPat]

Grilled cheese sandwiches are of Provolone and Swiss cheeses on good firm bread such as the Pumpernickel or the seedless Rye.

With pickles! Ha!

Hey you're forgetting an important ingredient in American CheeseFoodProduct - the bright yellow dye!

Though I'm pretty sure they use that in Colby, Longhorn, Cheddar, Velveeta, and butter as well, LOL!

In Quebec, butter, when coloured, is coloured with carotene.
