Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

Taiwanese breakfast food.
Those brilliant bastards made me buy american cheese, on purpose, to eat.
Danbing is made with a chewy rice flour crepe, very thin. Crack an egg on a frying pan. Break the yolk with chopsticks and swirl a bit. Mixed but still distinct, not scrambled. Put the crepe on top. Fry the egg a bit. Flip. Put american cheese on top of the egg. Let the crepe side cook a bit while the 'cheese' starts to melt. Roll it up. Slice the roll so the cross section is 3 spirals of chewy crepe, fried egg and melted cheese. Eat by the slice.
I don't know why american cheese makes it better but it really does. Real actual cheese that's good just isn't as good for danbing.
American cheese is good for melting, either in hot sandwich-like dishes, or as a sauce additive. If it melts, american cheese will probably be nice in it.
