To use Hannaford American Singles, simply unwrap a slice and place it directly onto your food. They are ideal for adding to hot sandwiches, such as grilled cheese or burgers, where their rapid melting properties create a gooey texture. They can also be incorporated into casseroles or layered into quesadillas. For a simple snack, place a slice on a cracker or toast.

How it differs from similar foods
Compared to natural cheese slices, American Singles have a more uniform texture and meltability due to the emulsifying agents used in their production. They tend to create a smoother, creamier melt without separating, which can be desirable in certain applications where a consistent, liquid-like cheese sauce is preferred.

How to keep the rest
After opening the package, store any remaining slices in an airtight container or resealable bag in the refrigerator. This helps to maintain their freshness and prevent them from drying out. Consume within the recommended timeframe for best quality.
