		American cheese is another word for processed cheese, it's not really a real cheese per se.
 
 No one ever puts it on quality burgers.

		American cheese might as well be Cheeze Whiz. 
 
 Y'all described it exactly the way I was trying to.
 
 It's good on a grilled cheeze sammich, but on a burger? No way.

		A good cut of beef made into a hamburger and cooked medium/medium-well just needs salt and pepper and it is tasty as all hell (though if it is a tenderloin cut you could go blue or rare, though at that point I'd rather have tartare).  Though a cheeseburger with Jalapeno Monterrey Jack is awesome.  Both are good really.
