    Smash burgers are all the same. Crisp edges and juicy center. The only thing I’m asking is what cheese.

          ‘american cheese’ is fine. it’s what most fast food joints and many restaurants use.

          it’s the individually-wrapped ‘singles’ that is the abomination.

          they are two distinctly different products.

            As I understand it, it’s cheese melted with an emulsifying salt to make it able to be served hot without turning into a pile of curd and grease. I’d prefer real cheese like cheddar, but will admit that American cheese was made for the job.
