Explanation
This is a common loanword from English “cheese” and is used much like the English word. There is no single classifier for every form of cheese. The classifier depends on its shape: แผ่น for a slice, ก้อน for a block or lump, and ชิ้น for a piece.
Usage
It is commonly used when discussing ingredients at home, shopping for food, or ordering cheese as an ingredient or extra topping at restaurants, especially with pizza and burgers.
Caution
ชีส refers specifically to cheese, not dairy products in general. For “dairy products,” use ผลิตภัณฑ์จากนม.
