i don't like fake cheez

I have always avoided most foods with that fake orange cheese look (and taste). Cheezies, Ritz, fake orange crackers, Velveeta - none of them ever taste like cheese and they turn your tongue orange (cool if you a Lion's fan - not so cool if you're normal) So of course I was a tad (maybe a lot, no - I freeking avoided them) suspicious of Goldfish.

Sure I let my son eat them, I even nodded my head politely when the Queen B said I should try one. How could they be any different than all that orange chemical on the market already. So one day there was a stray Goldfish swimming upstream from Ronan's hand so I though, "OK, try one so you can finally say no thanks to them." To my shock I actually liked it. They didn't taste like marine shaped ritz, they weren't aquatic cheezies - they were Goldfish King Triton of the cheese flavoured snack food. So today I bought the Costco sized box. Mmm.... finally some good seafood.

I get this. There are places that offer "scramblers" as part of their breakfast menus, but these are made with that fake liquid cheese. I can't stand it. I refuse to eat the 7-11 nachos with that fake cheese. Eve Ritz crackers come in a cheese flavour that is gross. But the cheese goldfish doesn't taste that way. The plain is better, but cheese is okay.
