“Did you know that our own government won’t give grilled cheese to its prison inmates, even those being held in double-secret jails? It’s true! Waterboarding, electric shocks, it’s all fair game except for sodium wads, or as some people call them, ‘Grilled Cheese sandwiches.’”
Creator Commentary:
This is one of our more popular early comics. Oddly, a lot of people are passionate about grilled cheese. The Internet is a strange place, full of people who are sexually addicted to sites like girlsreadingpoetryinthemud.com and like to post anonymous praise for this “sandwich,” which I personally wouldn’t give to a homeless man. I suppose I shouldn’t be so critical though, since I’ve spent most of my Saturday reading comics, playing Heroes of Might and Magic Three, and enjoying the free samples at girlsarguingaboutproseintheshower.com.
If you’re looking for legitimate commentary, I guess I would say that while I’m happy about the concept of the script, at the minimum I’d like to re-write all of the jokes except for the last bullet, because they are kind of long and awkward.
A local restaurant serves an great grilled cheese sandwich with 3 kinds of real cheese, and mayo. Breaded and DEEP FRIED! It’s heart cloggingly awesome.
Look, before I crashed the site there were a bunch of grilled cheese apologists posting comments just like yours Jamie. I’ll tell you what I told them. Grilled cheese is fit for three groups of people: The suicidally depressed; prisoners who also happen to be dicks; and maybe people without teeth, if they’re on like Death Row or something. Anyone eating grilled cheese outside these groups is basically in defiance of God, taking the worst of his creation and cramming in his/her moth like so much dirt.

“too fancy” .. just sayin’
Jane, I don’t know what to say. I thought we had fixed this typo months and months ago, but after the second site crash, I must have put an older version of the comic up by accident. Thanks for the watchful eye, it’s much appreciated. Either Dana or myself will be fixing the error in the near future.

It is fixed Jane, thanks again!
love it !
Thanks Mia!
man, i really wanted girlsarguingaboutproseintheshower.com to be real.
I won’t lie Neil, I kind of do too.
Wait… so when I add fresh tomato to my cheesey chemical bread lump, i am doing it WRONG? Shit, now i understand why people are so suprised when I put basil and feta into my tomato soup. it’s like putting gucci on a crack addict. IT ALL MAKES SENSE!
Exactly Soma, exactly …
love this comic…. that its a lump of pure awesomness !
Thanks Ashling!
I have teeth, ask my rich dentist. suicidally depressed?nah, my medstake careof that. Prison? do marriage count? cheese is one of the greatest ….I forget, must be the pot…anyway, my favorite grilled cheese sandwich is two slices of whole wheat bread, to make me feel good, two slices of LOL american cheese, a layer of tuna salad between the slices, and a slice of greenhouse grown tomato. that gives me a hard on.
Kookiedoktor, I hate to tell you, but that’s a tuna melt, not a grilled cheese sandwich. They are good though, I will argee with you on that point.
Let me open your eyes, dear.

while I agree that anything which involves that crappy not-cheese is absolutely horrific, I am so thoroughly in love with Tillamook cheddar that I occasionally fry up a sandwich full of it so that people don’t look at me weird for eating just cheese.
Jenn, you’ve got to take the plunge and just eat the cheese. I’ve been open with my “just cheese” eating for a while now, and sure, Dana and my girlfirnd both give me a hard time over it, but I’ve got to tell you, that doesn’t make the cheese taste any worse.
Free yourself from your fears of social persecution!
Tillamook Cheddar is my favorite too.
You know, it’s funny I made one for myself today. X3; But…it’s really not too bad when you have fresh, homemade sourdough bread and smoked gouda cheese. =P Simple, yet tasty. =3
Nice comics, by the way. =3
1) Glad you like the comics Matt
2) That sounds good, but I feel it’s just an example of a good way to eat the saddest food.
