LINKS: Denny's New Cheese Sandwich

By Erica

Last week, Denny's put a new item on its menu: The Fried Cheese Sandwich. NPR sent some investigators, including Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me's Peter Sagal (below) to try the new sandwich, which a grilled cheese with mozzarella sticks instead of plan cheese on the inside.



Their report has some great lines, including "All the layers, it's Inception in sandwich form. The mozzarella sticks are really just a dream the grilled cheese sandwich is having. It's a good dream," and "It's really like the grilled cheese sandwich is smuggling the mozzarella sticks into your stomach."

I've never said no to fried cheese, so I think that this is an EXCELLENT invention. Maybe the Wisconsin version will include fried cheese curds instead of mozzarella sticks!

We're back! With a bonus tasting from the archives...

By Kara and Erica

We just got back from cheesecation, and we're ready to eat. As we search for the perfect back-to-tasting cheese for our next review, we thought we'd share with you a video from the archives. Regular readers will know that this sort of several-month aging process merely serves to bring out the flavors in a good cheese... video... right?

Enjoy, and look back here for fresh posts this week!
