A Quickie: Even NPR Loves Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

NPR recently posted a new blog entry for their Kitchen Window series and it just happens to feature the wonderful grilled cheese sandwich. Yum!

This blog post would have been great when I was writing my History of Grilled Cheese Sandwich entry, but oh well. Besides the wonderful recipes that NPR and Susan Russo suggest, and they are wonderful, I just had to post this wonderfully amazing stat.

The love affair continues. Americans eat a whopping 2.2 billion grilled cheese sandwiches per year, according to the NDP Group Inc., a consumer research firm.

Wow! I think I account for 1 billion of those! Keep cooking and keep eating America. (And then send me the recipe!)
