They still have that. Mrs. Flash knows an elderly Chinese lady who every now and then gives us cheese and powdered milk, neither of which she would ever eat.

Yup, at one time not long ago there was actual genuine government cheese in the Flash family fridge.

About a million years ago, My Mom used to work for a program that distributed the cheese. We were getting by on $3.78/hr, so she gladly accepted the "rejects" (box might have been crushed a little on one end, or something. Nobody pickier than people on welfare...).

Anyway, that gov't cheese was GREAT! Flavor like Cheddar, melted like Velveeta. Haven't been able to find anything like it in the stores, ever.
