On the topic of Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup

That sounds fucking delicious and I'm suddenly starving.

Panera Bread does a pretty good GC&TS

Pro-Tip: Red Pepper Soup is like fucking delicious-er tomato soup, especially with crushed garlic. So damn good with a grilled cheese.

Give it to me

@mordeaniischaos: Noted!

My mind interpreted the subject as "soup made from grilled cheese and tomatoes" as opposed to tomato soup and a discrete grilled cheese sandwich.

Pondering if that would work better as a soup or as a flavor of potato chip.

"Gimme that funk, that sweet, that nasty, that gushee stuff"

damn now I'm hungry too :(

Those are both good, but I don't really see a reason to have them together. If I had either one for lunch I'd be satisfied.

Now I know what I am going to have for lunch tomorrow.

Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup is my go-to winter meal. Delicious.

Can never go wrong with tomato soup and grilled cheese.

When I was in college I ate grilled cheese almost every single day and didn't get sick of it. Tomato soup was not offered very often though, which was a major bummer.

Man, now I need some grilled cheese.

Slightly Off Topic:

I have some wheat bread. Should I make grilled cheese with that or is that a travesty (because grilled cheese should only be made with white bread)?

@andorski: I'd totally eat a wheat bread grilled cheese. I say make it then report back with the results.

I'll need to buy some tomato soup first. Any recommendations (other than making it from scratch; I'm too lazy to do that)?

oh my god I don't have tomato soup in my kitchen

you got my hopes up for NOTHING

JERK

Fuck yeah! Tomato soup and grilled cheese is awesome.

@demoskinos Your recipe?

I will often dunk said grilled cheese sandwich into said bowl of soup. Fuck yeah.

This is one of the most lopsided polls I've seen here in a long time. At least you guys chose the only correct answer.

Your words symbolize the motherfucking truth. Fuck the fuck yeah!

@rebel_scum: Take a can of Campbell soup to the can opener hit the button dump in a pot add water. BOOM. Tomato soup.

Grilled cheese is awesome but fuck tomatoe soup! That shit has tomoatoes in it! I would totally take pretty much anything else with the grilled cheese though. I've had grilled cheese and sushi before...what? Don't look at me like I'm crazy!

I like grilled cheese a lot. I've had it with tomato soup. It was okay. I'll have it with a little bit if it's available.

That's it.

Love me some Grilled Cheese with Tomato soup. Goldfish crackers are mandatory for my soup if I make it. Some heavenly stuff right there.

Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup is the best cafeteria day. Probably the cheapest food day too.

@theunsavedhero: I can't believe I never thought of that before. Shit, now I need to try this ASAP.

Oh dear...

How do you guys like your grilled cheese? Because in my head its kind of gross, but that's because I can only picture wonder bread and kraft singles.

So next question Is which I should have already asked but... buttered bread or no butter on your grilled cheese?

@demoskinos: oh buttered definitely

deep fry the sucker for bonus points.

Butter on Pepperidge Farms and your deli's finest cheese makes an excellent grilled cheese.

This feels like a Hizang poll, not that I'm complaining. Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup is never not great.

Fuck that does sound good. I wonder how many people will actually eat a grilled cheese they wouldn't normally have because of this thread.

Grilled cheese is great and all, but tomato soup is some hot fucking garbage.

Fuckin' A they do, man!

Oh dear lord no. You need some good bread and real cheese. I'm a fan of the classic style grilled cheese so for me it's some good po-ta-to bread (buttered on the outside for sure, inside if you're feeling luxurious) and just tillamook cheddar. Some people like sharp cheddar but I feel it melts poorly and it's got too much of a bite to it for grilled cheese. You can also experiment with various cheeses and breads to find your favorite. I've done a baguette with some good cheddar and that was certainly tasty. Another great option is to pry the sandwich apart right when you take it off the pan and add a decent layer of classic homemade mac and cheese. Not that kraft shit (shit is a strong word, I honestly love craft mac), has to be the real deal. Ads some texture and flavor and substance to the sandwich, still goes great with tomato/red pepper soup.

Never had it, so I can't comment on whether I'd like it. Sounds like something that could go either way with me.

So grilled cheese is cheese on toast, right?

If so, fuck yes. If it's just cheese melted on top of the soup, that's still a fuck yes.

That's the only acceptable way to eat such a dish. Steep that sandwich like a tea bag.

That sounds like an unlikely combination, and a potentially desirable one. I was unaware this was a thing.
