It feels like such a waste.

They are also packed per slice because they last a lot longer. Plastic cheese or not, cheese slices have a lot of surface area and get funky relatively quickly. Also, every time you reach into a regular bag of deli sliced cheese, you introduce funk-generating organisms.

In this context, “funk” = microorganisms that can harm you if consumed. The bacteria used in producing the cheese are safe to consume.
Not all cheeses are funky, and funk that is not characteristic of a certain style of cheese is considered a defect.
