Happy Grilled Cheese Day everybody, hope you make it a gouda one! Sorry if that pun was cheesy. Oops, we did it again. We apologize; we’ve been jamming out to some R & Brie. Ok, that was the last one.
In honour of today’s holiday, here are four fun facts about grilled cheese sandwiches that you probably never knew:
- Japanese competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi once ate 13 grilled cheese sandwiches in one minute. Please, please, please do not try this at home.
- There’s a Wisconsin Grilled Cheese Academy! Sadly, it’s just a website with recipes and not somewhere you can get a PhD in cheese.
- A grilled cheese was once sold on eBay for $28,000 because it bore the image of the Virgin Mary. That’s a lot of cheddar!
- In the 1993 movie “Benny and Joon”, Johnny Depp uses a clothes iron to make a grilled cheese sandwich. He’s quite the innovator.
We all know a grilled cheese sandwich is the ultimate snack and every person has their perfect way to make one. That’s why we’re asking you to share your favourite grilled cheese combination! Are you a bacon and cheddar, or more of a swiss with sun-dried tomatoes? Or maybe you’re a visionary who has cooked up something we’ve never dreamed of. Havarti, truffles, and unicorn tears?
Comment below with your favourite grilled cheese combination by Thursday, April 19th by 12:00pm and three winners will be randomly selected to win a $50 Public Mobile credit. Why are we doing this? Because we think you’re grate. Ok,THAT was the last pun.
