How do you feel about Kraft individually wrapped orange American-style cheese food product slices?

45. Classic kid food. I think of it like iceberg lettuce and boxed pudding

I know others have been way more successful than I at getting their kids to love and enjoy gourmand foods but mine (and all the other gazillion kids that have come through my house) seem to have needed to start on the crap stuff before they morphed into savvy eaters.

Its akin to comfort food for them, they may LOVE homemade mac and cheese - prefer it actually - but they won't turn down Kraft boxed if its that's the only thing within their budget.

I've got a package of american singles in my fridge as we speak. That pkg takes a LONG time to disappear (and sometimes I use it as dog treats so they'll take meds) but sometimes I see my daughters sneak a wrapped cheese slice as a snack..... no biggie. Its AMERICAN right? Part of our cultural heritage like peanut butter imho
