Cheese, grated or sliced?

[RATTER15]

I'm not talking about the obvious instances when grated cheese is required, like a recipe of a pizza.

Do you just grate cheese to make it go further?

It does wind me up a little when people grate cheese to put in a sandwich!

or to go with a salad.

I know sometimes people will grate cheese to make it go further, don't do it, just put less cheese in or buy more cheese, don't be so tight with the cheese!

I like thick cut cheese in a sandwich or a big! big! chunk of cheese with a salad.
I like my cheese so I can get my teeth into it.

and as for the pre-made sandwiches the sell in the garage, grated cheese with mayo!!! Why do the have to put mayo in every bloody sandwich they make grrrrrr!!

as its ranting cheese day , who and why would anyone buy ready grated cheese in a supermarket ??????????

I do both on a sandwich, a nice big slab of cheese topped with light fluffy grated cheese welded to the slab with salad cream...fantastic:)

[anneasquith]

salad cream is the devils food. yuk.

I can't abide cheese straight from the fridge. It must be room temperature or the flavour is killed.

That pre-grated cheese has stuff added to it to keep it from sticking...it may be potato flour....;-)
I sometimes prefer grated cheese in a sarnie-a 'lump' would be too overpowering,particularly as I hate insipid cheese. I love vintage cheddar-something with a '6' rating.

I hate and detest mayo ! ! ! Should be banned....its filthy stuff, same with salad cream...

[whiskeryron]

I agree PP. Ron.

Anybody else like cheddar and beetroot sarnies? Wholemeal bread naturally.

Yes Yes YES @ SandyRoe - I adore cheese & pickled beetroot sarnies ! ! Truly a taste sensation...

[marval]

cheese & pickled beetroot sounds lovely, must try it sometime

[Purple_Popple]

My late father used to enjoy cheddar & strawberry jam sarnies ! ! Not quite to my palate but he loved them....

[RATTER15]

My favourite cheese sarnies: Cheese by itself, Cheese and onion, cheese and beetroot, cheese and tomato or go the whole hog= cheese (thick & strong) with lettuce, spring onion, beetroot, piccalilli, onion tomatoes, coleslaw, maybe some cold meat if available.

I also know someone who loves cheese and horseradish sandwiches!

[anneasquith]

ratter. do you like cheese ? :)

[Purple_Popple]

Ratter, coleslaw has mayo in it ????

[Purple_Popple]

Im weird, I hate mayo but I like coleslaw - what is that all about ?

[EcclesCake]

I'm almost ashamed to admit it but...cheddar, beetroot and salad cream on wholemeal bread is delicious!

[RATTER15]

P.P correct it does. I love mayo, I didn't say I don't like it, I just like the option of sandwiches without Mayo. Garages appear to have Mayo in every single sandwich.

I think if you took the bread and butter out of a bread and butter sandwich from a garage, you would still be left with a handful of Mayo!
