What is it made of?

I sometimes buy cheese slices, but I buy the type that is in individual wrappers inside the packet. I only buy then when we want to make cheese burgers though.

Ah, this could be a mine field Oldwoman70. Before now we have bought cheese slices for cheeseburgers. They are individually wrapped, quite soggy and processed with a distinctive taste. Packs of sliced cheddar and presumably other varieties are available. To me these taste more like “normal” cheese. Wonder which you have and whether the little madam will like them. Do you have an in-date passport handy just in case?

It's easy to buy ready-sliced non-processed cheese in e.g. Marks, I think their slicves are interleaved with greaseproof paper sheets.

Can you not slide the blade of a knife between your slices?

Would have been easier to suggest you and your friend swapped so she had to do the ghastly white bread and processed cheese sarnies to suit fussy DGD.

Oh dear - it's probably too late now, but could you soften them for a few seconds in the microwave and prise them apart with a spatula or butterknife?

I think I would have given her a rain check

Always individually wrapped but if not can’t you slide a knife between the slices it doesn’t seem that much to worry about

I tried sliding a knife between the slices but they just broke up - the little darling ended with a sandwich made up of broken slices but seemed happy with it. I presented the opened packet to my friend as she left - no-way would I eat it!

Pleased to hear the (spoilt) little darling didn’t go hungry.
