In LA

If you haven’t done a double-take at the packaging, you are either from China or you are not looking hard enough. Note the flavor listed in the lower-right corner.

Hmm, smells ok…

Tastes vaguely like salt-free chocolate-flavored processed cheese. Not bad!

On a purely rational level, chocolate processed cheese should seem no more objectionable than the oft-encountered Kraft American Cheese or any other gooey yellow-orange processed slab which only just meets the legal definition of cheese. Perhaps the bar for my expectations was set very low by the fact that I’ve been in China a while –certain colors of amorphous food now scream to me,”don’t go there”. Hence my instant original interpretation of the photo on the packaging: pork-blood flavored cheese. Nowhere to go but up. Chocolate Cheese Slices: yum.
