The cheese is bad enough. And then they have to go and individually wrap it!

Poison oak is a natural plant
Why don’t you put some in your food
Natural food
I don’t care if there’s chemicals in it
Is long as my lettuce is crisp
Preservatives might just be preserving you
I think that’s something you missed
Ya you missed it

Yep, one of the better processed cheeses. I stopped eating them decades ago, but I remember them well. According to Wikipedia:

Ingredients: milk, whey, milk protein concentrate, milkfat, sodium citrate, contains less than 2% of calcium phosphate, whey protein concentrate, salt, lactic acid, sorbic acid as a preservative, cheese culture, annatto and paprika extract (color), enzymes, vitamin d3.
That's pretty much cheese, with some other stuff.

Woe is me. Now I can no longer get my daily dose of artificial chemicals (pun intended). Next Diet Coke is going to say they will no longer use artificial sweetners. Disaster!!!

Anybody who says it’s cheese ought to be required to disclose his relationship to the manufacturer of this edible plastic, its subsidiaries, distributors, marketers and hired law firms.

It’s not. It a “cheese product” or “cheese food”, whatever those are.

Plastic cheese.

Gave me a kidney stone (along with 4-5 other things I no longer consume).
