What is the point of individually wrapping cheese slices in plastic, only to cover a bunch of them in more plastic? - eviltoast

Title.

It feels like such a waste.

EDIT: This is the type of cheese I am referring to. It comes wrapped in a piece of plastic then bundled together with x more and all of them get covered in plastic

    I was talking about the outer plastic.

    The kind of cheese slices I’m thinking of are sort of a solidified cheeze-wiz substance, I suspect that if there was nothing between them they’d merge back together into the blob they were probably originally extruded from.

      Not only that, but iirc they are packaged in liquid form and it solidifies into flat sheets as they are pressed together.
