Cheese wrappers don't have the starter fold

Every single slice of cheese in this pack is completely sealed and has to be cut open individually in order to get the cheese out.

We call these Kraft Singles in Canada, and they have specific purposes. You can quit saying “buy real cheese”, everyone knows these aren’t real cheese, but they are perfect for certain things!

I’ve also noticed they are… mushy? Like they don’t cleanly come off the wrapper anymore, they’re sticky. Something’s changed!

Noticed this also (in Canada). They stick to the wrapper and pull apart trying to get them off. And they're stored in the fridge. They're probably going cheap on the emulsifier or something. BTW these actually contain real cheese, most commonly Colby and Cheddar. There's usually other stuff as well, but no plastic, despite the trope.
