Fear the cheese, or: The Day I Declared War on “Yahoo Health”

August 31, 2010

The headline:

Scariest New Restaurant Foods

The list includes:

It’s a grilled cheese sandwich…with mozzerella sticks.

Genius!

But not to this Yahoo writer, David Zinczenko, who apparently hates Wisconsin, good wholesome food, children, and America.

Prepare to be incensed. David writes:

If Denny’s was serious about improving the grilled cheese, they would have skipped the novelty and brought in big-flavor ingredients like sautéed mushrooms or sliced figs.

My complaints, from least-to-most on the “incensed” scale:

  • “Improving” the grilled cheese?
  • If it has mushrooms in it, it’s not a grilled cheese.
  • Sliced…figs?

Are you crazy, or just rabidly un-American?

    I don’t think that writer had been to a Denny’s before. Sliced fig newtons, maybe. Sliced figs? The short order cook would be out back smoking the figs.

    Denny’s? Figs? It’s apparent that Mr. Foodie has never been to a Denny’s (NTTAWWT-it’s my go to place at 1:00am). As for improving a grilled cheese sandwich, once you add anything other than cheese it’s no longer a grilled cheese sandwich, Einstein.
