As promised, I have returned with "bio cheese".  I don't know what it has to do with faith-based fasting, but other than that it all seems pretty straight-forward. Well, except for the "vegan flavours" listed in the ingredients. But whatever those are, they're not animal products, gluten, soy, lactose, palm oil or genetically modified.  What good is cheese if you can't eat it on crackers? And you can eat this on crackers. It's kind of cheesy. The flavour and texture is sort of half way between cheap cheddar (like Coles Smart Buy tasty cheddar) and processed cheese (like Kraft singles). Fairly bland, fairly inoffensive. But I notice that it also claims to be "easy melt", and that seems like a claim that must be tested.  It doesn't look very melted but it turns out it just holds its shape disturbingly well. It's actually very soft, almost liquidy now. It has a very smooth texture, and a more interesting flavour as well, almost like a bechamel sauce.  Straight out of the pack it's entirely unremarkable, but melting definitely improves it. I actually quite like it. I'm impressed really. It's a serviceable replacement for cheese in sandwiches and would probably work pretty well on pasta, maybe even on pizza. I wouldn't go out of my way for it, but I'd happily eat it again.

Efexeye posted:"cheese food', which is how Kraft singles are labelled, isn't cheese. It actually is though, by any reasonable definition. quote:Kraft singles do not qualify for the US FDA Pasteurized Processed Cheese labeling. For this reason Kraft labels them Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product to avoid FDA sanctions. They were calling Kraft Singles Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Food until the FDA gave them a warning in December of 2002 that the product could not be legally labeled as 'food' due to the inclusion of Milk Protein Concentrates. Kraft complied with the FDA order by changing the label to the current Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product. Kraft singles do however contain ingredients in common with cheddar cheese (pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, enzyme(s), annatto vegetable color) So unless you're making the stupid and pedantic argument that this solid, edible substance is actually not food because the FDA says so, it's also dumb to argue that it's not cheese.

Roro posted:What does kangaroo taste like? Aldi has sold it in the past I think but I never tried it. All the kangaroo I've eaten came from Macro Meats, and it varies a bit. It's mostly like really lean beef, but sometimes it tastes really gamey. Kangaroo sausages are incredibly dry and awful, but the mince works well in basically anything you'd put beef in. You can also get steaks, which are weirdly shaped and therefore difficult to cook, and fillets, which are better, and burgers, which are actually pretty great but take a surprisingly long time to cook. I don't think I've tried any of their other products, because they're still pretty niche and even the bigger supermarkets don't carry the full range.

So you could open a shop that sold open-faced sandwiches and that would be fine because those sandwiches are not sandwiches. I think we can safely ignore this ruling as it's clearly insane.

cyberia posted:Also meat pie flavour which they release every winter in Australia; they always taste like gravy but horribly fake and greasy cyberia posted:Also these abominations. They're sort of 'fancy' so there's always a bag of them on the table whenever you go to a party and I think they taste absolutely disgusting. Speaking of snack food flavours, I tried some of those new "improved" barbecue Shapes recently, and I was really surprised by them, because they claim to have more flavour but actually seemed to have much less. I think because with the old style ones it was all one the outside (and only on one side of each biscuit) so you got it all in one place, so the new ones might have had more but it was spread all over (and through) them. It was weird though. And the new flavour is crap too.
