I haven't seen those in a long time, Nanc, and I've looked. Tillimook, a
onetime quality cheese producer, has recently come out with AC shingles, but
thay don't really do it, either.

Most of them aren't. Borden's, once an icon for wholesome milk, now has
zero milk in it. They didn't even bother to put in a poor facsimile of
cheese flavor. They're just plain ol' yellow vegetable oil-based polyvinyl
crud, as are many house brands, like Albertson's, etc. They taste just like
brie.
