In the sandwich world, thinking outside the box can get pretty scary

It’s official: 2010 is the year the sandwich turned into a nutritional train wreck.

KFC started things off this past spring with the appalling Double Down sandwich that replaced the bun with two fried chicken filets. Pure genius.

Then earlier this summer, Friendly’s introduced the Grilled Cheese Burger Melt–a burger wedged between two grilled cheese sandwiches. Pure excess.

And now Denny’s steps up to offer the newest member of this bizarre artery-clogging family: the Fried Cheese Melt. And the name delivers everything that’s promised.

The FCM is four fried mozzarella sticks wrapped in American cheese, and then grilled between two slices of sourdough bread.

If you’ve ever eaten a grilled cheese sandwich and thought, “This is way too healthy,” then Denny’s Fried Cheese Melt is your dream come true.

Or nightmare. You make the call.

To Your Good Health,

Jenny Thompson
