Four dairy farmers from different regions selected four different chefs to participate in a grilled cheese throwdown. There was one stipulation - they had to use cows milk Canadian cheese. And it had to be really wack and creative.

The chefs threw in some crazy shit. Like olive tapenade, curried brie, pear and mango chutney, Chinese duck ...

Which is all well and good I mean but like, why fuck with a good thing? A simple grilled cheese sandwich is probably the most nostalgic childhood snack for everyone. It was MADE for kids. Throw some ketchup on there and thats as funky as it should get. I'm no conservative lame-o when it comes to crazy sandwiches or anything, but a grilled cheese should be simply that - grilled bread and cheese, mang!

The spokesman for this whole thing says “it was very important to demonstrate that with some imagination and everyday, ordinary, familiar cheese, you can really accomplish wonderful creations, but the important thing is not to overpower the cheese with all of the other ingredients.”

True that.

A dude from Nova Scotia won. There was havarti, roasted red pepper, arugula and proscuitto involved. I say take your proscuitto, Michael Howell, and put it where it belongs - wrapped around some melon.
