Jonathon It’s a Jersey thang. Here’s a the deal, in northern Jersey you order a breakfast sandwich as Taylor Ham and get white cheese. In Southern Jersey you order pork roll and get yellow cheese.
They are the same. White or yellow American cheese is the same only the coloring. Taylor Ham is a brand of pork roll. Different brands have their own subtle difference. CORRECTION: In North Jersey it’s yellow and South Jersey it’s white. My mistake.
