grilled cheese


So as I'm sitting home contemplating, "what should I eat" i figure let me look up some foods that can make my mouth water to figure out what I am in the mood for.

First thing I look up is grilled cheese, I'm not in the mood to cook all out, just a simple, quick fix. I came across this photo and thought, this is a bit cute, and a lot of bit creepy! Fortunately, it had no effect on me choosing my sandwich choice for lunch, but I thought I'd share this ad for grilled cheese.

On the other hand...the description below happened to catch my attention and my taste buds too! :) Bon Apetit.

Quickly becoming a diner specialty as well as a hearty home food, the grilled cheese sandwich’s simplicity has lead to its great success.

Once the cheese sandwich was grilled, broiled, or fried a whole new phenomenon was created. Delicious, fast, cheap, and easy to make… what more could you ask for?

On an international level, grilled cheese sandwiches and cheese sandwiches are still very popular. Commonly found in delis the sandwich usually comes with a lovely cultural twist.
