We get a whole month to celebrate one of the great comfort foods.
April is National Grilled Cheese Month
- Thread starter Cyclones_R_GR8

Today is also National Party day. Anybody up for a grilled cheese party?
I expect some arguing over cheese, what spread to use, and melt vs grilled cheese.

expand your mind, man. There's a whole legion of awesome cheese out there.
Cheddar has its place, to be sure, but don't short yourself.
Are you including melts?
You people make me sick!
A grilled cheese consists of only these following items. Cheese. Bread with spread (usually butter). This entire subreddit consist of "melts". Almost every "grilled cheese" sandwich i see on here has other items added to it. The fact that this subreddit is called "grilledcheese" is nothing short of utter blasphemy. Let me start out by saying I have nothing against melts, I just hate their association with sandwiches that are not grilled cheeses.
Adding cheese to your tuna sandwich? It's called a Tuna melt. Totally different. Want to add bacon and some pretentious bread crumbs with spinach? I don't know what the hell you'd call that but it's not a grilled cheese.
I would be more than willing to wager I've eaten more grilled cheeses in my 21 years than any of you had in your entire lives. I have one almost everyday and sometimes more than just one sandwich.
Want to personalize your grilled cheese? Use a mix of different cheeses or use sourdough or french bread.
But if you want to add some pulled pork and take a picture of it, make your own subreddit entitled "melts" because that is not a ******* grilled cheese. I'm not a religious man nor am I anything close to a culinary expert. But as a bland white mid-western male I am honestly the most passionate person when it comes to grilled cheese and mac & cheese. All of you foodies stay the hell away from our grilled cheeses and stop associating your sandwich melts with them.
Yet again, it is utter blasphemy and it rocks me to the core of my pale being. ****, I stopped lurking after 3 years and made this account for the sole purpose of posting this. I've seen post after post of peoples "grilled cheeses" all over reddit and it's been driving me insane. The moment i saw this subreddit this morning I finally snapped. Hell, I may even start my own subreddit just because I know this one exists now.
You god damn heretics. Respect the grilled cheese and stop changing it into whatever you like and love it for it what it is. Or make your damn melt sandwich and call it for what it is. A melt.
Reads like a man who is bound up from grilled cheese.
Man looking at their recipes it's making me crave a sando, borederline horny.

That guy from that subredditt might actually explode if he saw that page
I understand your point. However, cheese is my favorite food. All cheese is. But a grilled cheese is at its best when it is cheddar and white bread. Period. /thread
I have some leftover remoulade sauce from this weekend. I wonder how that would be for the outside spread on a grilled cheese instead of mayo or butter.
Munster is the ultimate grilled cheese sandwich cheese, the perfect melty goodness.

It will depend on fat content. More fat = more browning and less burning. Also, any sugar present would burn. Hopefully you didn't have any sweet additions.
Definitely not the ones with the special sauce on them, at least.
