A negative term describing the form of Tai Chi taught in a popularized format. It implies that is it nontraditional, often mass-producing students with very little depth of knowledge by instructors who either are not knowledgeable or water down the curriculum to where most traditionalists would consider it unauthentic or even useless.
That school isn't even a real school -- it teaches Tai Cheese!
The Tai Cheese practitioners out there are making a lot of money these days.
