Ahhhhhh the good ole' EF. Its been awhile since i've seen that mentioned. I said something about it a couple months ago and people thought I really was talking about the beer :drunk:
 
I showed this tread to SWMBO, she got a good laugh about it..... then last night we made each other a grilled cheese sandwich right before bed :ban:


Well then, you should show her the Edmund Fitzgerald thread...:ban:

(I see somebody already brought it up, but that's what I thought of when I read this).
 
You guys all prove exactly what women think- that when it comes to grilled cheese, you aren't the least bit selective.

Nope. I'm actually quite selective. Only Lady Fingers can melt the cheese for this barley muncher. Shame on you for being so pessimistic, Yoops. You're usually so bullet-proof. Many of us here didn't specify or actually indicated our chef of choice quite specifically. :(
 
You guys all prove exactly what women think- that when it comes to grilled cheese, you aren't the least bit selective. Any grilled cheese will do, no matter what kind of diner it is. I mean, any old greasy spoon is good enough for you. Oh, sure, you'd love a grilled cheese from Spago's, but wouldn't have too much of a problem with being served a grilled cheese from Trucker's World Truck Stop, either.

Women are a bit more selective when we have a sandwich. We want to make sure the diner is top notch, and not just in cleanliness. We want to get the feeling that that diner is secure, and not going to be disappearing in some fly-by-night business scheme. We want to make sure the Board of Health isn't going to be closing the place down, and to make sure that the sandwiches are fresh. We also want to feel that OUR sandwich is special, and not just fast food that is served all over the place. We take time in ordering, and in contemplating what we want.

Hey, as long as the table is washed up before I sit down to eat...

Sometimes the sandwich is just the appetizer though. Just to prepare for the MAIN COURSE!

well, being choosy about grilled cheese is like, thinking one can of coke is going to be better than the next.... so i guess you are right mostly. There really is no such thing as a "bad" grilled cheese.. sure there are amazing ones sometimes, but the worst one ever is still a good one. :)

that being said, I feel I must state that truly, a grilled cheese served from someone you love is truly the greatest. bar none.
 
I know a guy that likes to dip his grilled cheese IN the tomato soup, not me though.

SWMBO makes grilled cheese sandwiches only on my Birthday and anniversary. Now I would like to eat them way more often, but only getting them a couple of times a year makes them taste even better.

(on a funny side not, she made me an actual factual grilled cheese for lunch today)

I hear the tomato soup doesn't like it.
 
Ever had a grilled cheese while sitting on the can? It takes a special gal to make one of those...
A blumpkin? Never heard of it :D

As an aside, this makes me think of one of the funniest things that ever happened to me while working retail. While I was helping an attractive female customer, one of my employees walked up behind me and whispered, "Give meeee a blumpkin!"

It was all I could do to excuse myself before completely losing it :)

I wouldn't mind getting a grilled cheese at Spago or at a truck stop for that matter. The thing is, when at the truck stop if the plates are dirty then there is no way I am getting a grilled cheese. However, I like getting my grilled cheese sandwiches served by someone with personality. I tried to get a grilled cheese sandwich last night, but to no avail. Might have to have it with tomato soup pretty soon here.

And Yoop, I know some ladies that don't care who they serve a grilled cheese sandwich. Kinda like a handshake these days. In fact, that is how some ladies say hello according to a guy I worked with that was served two grilled cheeses in the same evening from two seperate ladies on seperate occasions.
 
This is messed up in more ways than one.

First off, that dude needs to learn to make his own grilled cheese sandwiches. He's 30! It would be completely different if he were, say... 12. Got Google? Not hard...

Second, the fact that she 'refuses' to make a grilled cheese sandwich is ridiculous. Is she somehow 'above' it? Make toast much? Not hard...

Thinkin' these two have more to work out than their grilled cheese issues... ;)

Umm, yeah...

I want grilled cheese all the time, but take it when I can get it....
 
Huh, I thought that the older you got the more difficult it would be to make your own grilled cheese.
 
I haven't had a grilled cheese sandwich in like ten months. Wifey couldn't stand them when she was pregnant, they made her gag.

Funny, when my wife was pregnant she only wanted to make grilled cheese sandwiches.

Grass is always greener on the otherside, eh? :(

Edit: Wait... I see what you did there... well played!
 
I got grilled cheese this weekend too.

Grilled cheese is great but, I'd always rather stuff the Kanish.

I mean GC is like Tofu. It fills the body and gives it what it needs. But it's just not as satisfying and as hour long session of stuffing the Kanish.
 
Works as a good first course though.

Or as a snack between meals.

Or when drinking a shower beer. Life is good when drinking a shower beer and your wife ends up delivering a grilled cheese sandwich.

Edit: Shower Beer is NOT a clever euphemism. Try it sometime. Hot shower, cold beer. Glorious!

That never happens anymore. We have one of those over head rain heads. She forgets to turn the water off and I forget that there is even water.
 
There's an amazing number of videos online about cooking grilled cheese sandwiches. Lots of different techniques. Sometimes more than one piece of cheese, depending on what sites you go to. Different types and colors of cheese.

People REALLY love their cooking videos.
