> It seems wrong to me that most of what people now call cheese is not at all like what I think of as "real cheese"

Not sure at all what you’re referring to. Surely it’s not “american cheese”, which has been the punchline of obvious cheese jokes for decades. Or the powder in mac & cheese boxes, which is its own thing.

From where I stand, I see grocery stores in the USA stocking large varieties of cheddars, fontina, gouda… all “real cheese.”



In the USA the main problem is everything has to be pasteurised which rules out many "real" cheeses like camembert.
