John Besh was on the TV Show "Greatest Thing I Ever Ate" and they were doing cheese dishes. Besh's choice was their Crab au Gratin. He was speculating on the exotic combination of cheeses that must have gone into it.

Somebody off screen then handed him a page that had the actual recipe on it and he had to laugh - apparently the cheese component was very simple. Maybe it was American cheese, I don't know.

Yes, it was American cheese and, freshly grated, as I remember. Bon Ton doesn't use much of it, though.
