It's processed cheese, not real cheese in my opinion, but it's pretty much the same as those cheese slices from Kraft.

Which is better cheese food or cheese product?

Both are different names for processed cheese, such as Kraft American cheese. The legal definitions in the U.S. are:Pasteurized process cheese (100% cheese which includes "American Cheese" and "Pasteurized process American cheese"), (e.g., "Kraft Deli Deluxe American Cheese", "Land o Lakes American Cheese", "Laughing Cow").Pasteurized process cheese food, which contains at least 51% cheese.Pasteurized process cheese product which contain less than 51% cheese and cannot be advertised as cheese under FDA regulations (e.g. "Velveeta, "Kraft Singles")Pasteurized process cheese spread which is just like "cheese food" or "cheese product" and must contain 51% cheese, but may have added sugars and is softer and more spreadable.

Are there any legal govt requirement's on a process cheese product for the amount of cheese that has to be used in it?

Yes, but companies get around this by marketing products as something other than cheese. You will notice that many of them are labelled "cheese food" because that's different from cheese. I believe that in Canada they are much stricter, but in the US you can have a lot less cheese in a product. For example, the product known as "american cheese" does not exists in Canada, as it's actually processed in block form. Here, it would have to be packaged as "cheese food" or "cheesy" product. In Canada, you never see blocks of processed cheese, except for Velveeta, which is labelled a "cheese spread." The legislation around this is very complicated, but the link in related links may be helpful.
