This Grilled Cheese Sandwich Will Tear Us Apart


I was minding my own B.I. and trolling Epicurious for some cheap thrills, when I came upon THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH IN THE HISTORY OF FOOD. The reviews for this one recipe go on for days. And evidently, some were so vituperative as to not pass the standards of food reviewing decency and have already been deleted by Epicurious summer interns. (fuckin interns ruin EVERYTHING...) Nonetheless, the remaining reviews are hilarious. Click here!

A few hi-lights of the hard core web-based fisticuffs:

To previous reviewer: Chill out dude/dudette - you have way too much anger going on.... Save it for what counts, ya know??! (The review referred to here has been deleted. Clearly, the person who wrote the deleted review is Paula Abdul.)

Why do reviewers like the cook from Miami feel the need to snipe and make spiteful remarks on a site like this? (Perhaps 'roid rage?)

I'm sure there are plenty of food snobs on this site whose big dark secret is that sometimes they hide in their closet with a big bucket of Kentucky fried chicken or a bag of pork rinds. (Martha Stewart)

That last one is now officially our official slogan.
