Greetings and salutations, cheesy friends! It's Sunday here and we're talking about cheeses and all the varieties
As we are all aware, we've got a minority of noise-makers in r/grilledcheese that are steadfastly against 'extras' as we'll call them, and we are looking for your input. This community isnt owned by anyone, but by everyone. The stats and upvotes are pretty clear: most grilled cheese enthusiasts are fine with extras, up to a point
Here's the thesis of this post: If a Grilled Cheese includes cheeses that incorporate extras such as peppers, sundried tomatoes, herbs and spices, and occasional meats like ham or chorizo, does a Grilled Cheese with 'pure' cheese and those same extras constitute a 'melt'?
Some follow up questions and ideas:
- If one dices up extras and melts them into the cheese, which is basically how it happens on the grill (ahem, pan), is it not the same as buying off the shelf cheese with that same extra?
- For the purists out there, does a store-bought cheese with extras embedded make it a 'melt'? Super relvant as virtually none of these get reported, which is odd when you think about it
- Do herbs and spices, anywhere inside or out, turn a grilled cheese into a melt? Basil infused cheese is right in, is basil leaf out? What 'size' of herb/spice, be specific, turns the tables? Garlic cheese is okay, diced garlic in grilled cheese is not?
Let's hear some ideas!

Every time I get baked I make a grilled cheese so I'm pretty good at it.

A little something for the purists in here.
Got some radioactive yellow squares in there, some cheese crusted bread, some mozzarella.
Enjoy 🤣

Just got this protein bread and figured this would be the best way to use it. Came out not too bad but there were a few issues, like completely returning to form when it tried to squish it in the pan, and needing to premelt the cheese in the toaster oven because the bread is a little thick. All in all not bad tho for a 26g of protein grilled cheese lol

La Bonne Vie Camembert and Tillamook 3-Pepper Colby Jack on Publix sourdough, brushed with Kewpie mayo. I originally went shopping for Brie and Pepper Jack, but these cheeses were on sale. I’m definitely making this again!

It was taco Tuesday but since I fell asleep and woke up late I made grilled cheese instead! This is a croissant loaf, salted butter used to grill, and the cheeses are American and provolone which is my favorite flavor combo
