Us real Americans make our own cheese with melted plastic and yellow food coloring. We don't need that commie dairy shit.
American cheese isn't made of plastic in the sense of polymers, it is plastic in the sense of being easily deformed or molded.
At its most basic, American cheese is literally just cheese, water and sodium phosphate. It's "not cheese", but in the sense that meatloaf isn't meat and mayonnaise isn't eggs.
Man I don't even wanna know what's in the powdered cheese you get in a macaroni box. (I don't eat any cheese cause I'm lactose intolerant, but I always see people just toss the cheese pouch and use their own cheese.)
It's powdered cheese sauce.
It's mostly made using spray dryers. Basically, a spray dryer uses hot air to quickly dry a fine mist of something. It's how they make milk powder and egg powder as well.
