it's ok to eat an English cheese!

As long as it's not "American cheese," which is, you know, not really cheese. I'm ashamed to say I was actually addicted to the stuff...admittedly, that was when I was eight years old.

I shouldn't reveal this, but a certain cheese snob with whom I live has been known to eat several helpings of a casserole of secret Midwestern origin, containing the dreaded Cheez Wiz.
