how come wheatier, heartier breads are so much better than white bread

[xfer]

EXCEPT when you make grilled cheese?

grilled cheese on wheat or rye is gross.

also:

1. peanut butter and bacon sandwiches

2. fried vealloaf with ketchup sandwiches

<3 peanut butter (sans bacon)

the source is going to write about alex's refusal to eat brown bread with his cheese.

i mean, it really really sucks that i wouldn't touch white bread with a ten-foot pole, but if i want to make one of the aforementioned sandwiches, i have to buy a loaf.

and then make six of the aforementioned sandwiches.

 

[xfer]

i have a liberal's paternalistic love for brown bread 99% of the time.

Am I the only person that smashes their bread as flat as it can get for my sandwhiches? People always look at me weird when I do that.

I think wheat makes damn fine grilled cheese you stupid bread-racist

 

[xfer]

xxxxxxx: the all natural white bread not the gross cheap kind
xxxxxxx: grilled cheese on whole wheat is nasty
ozmagreed: i agree

 

[xfer]

it tastes like grilled sawdust!

I had a pumpernickel grilled cheese sandwich last weekend; it was ok, but I agree that white bread's the best for grilled cheese.

I think a grilled cheese on rye would be killer.

xfer you are a BREAD RASCIST like Eminem probably is.

 

[xfer]

i eat about forty or fifty times as much rye bread as i do white--i even get rye toast when i go out for breakfast. but no, when it's grilled, it's not especially good.

i think the problem may be that the key with grilled cheese is the butter soaking into the bread and then being fried, and the heartier breads don't absorb it nearly as completely.

 

[minxnim]

when my mom makes me grilled cheese i always ask for italian bread because alex is right, wheat bread is yucky with the cheese.

 

[xfer]

italian-bread grilled cheese must be awesome. i've never had it, though.

 

[avi]

BREACIST!

 

[minxnim]

alex it's totally awesome although my dad eats it with mayo with is YUCK.



olive oil + bread + cheese + grills = neat

 

[xfer]

UGH.

so avi i hope you realise the folly of your ways now that you've seen this thread.

(sourdough is actually pretty tops as far as I'm concerned)

 

[mindspell]

A good whole wheat bread with a year-old cheddar is pretty top in terms of grilled cheese

Add to that a few olives and you got something amazing...
