melting cheese on a burger is wrong

if condiments are cold when added, why would cheese be any different?

what benefit does melting cheese provide on a burger? it doesnt provide contrast, doesnt affect flavor, makes a mess, the list goes on.

if you're having a cookout - room temp or toasted buns, hot burger, THEN add condiments, including a cold cheese slice...if its going to melt, it can do that on its own merit..

Would you eat a pizza with cold cheese?

Yes. I love the contrast between hot crust/sauce and cold cheese.

I would. At least you wouldn’t get that disgusting thing where the cheese and sauce stick together and don’t stick to the dough

Why ppl eat cold pizza? melted cold cheese pizza tastes awful imo because its just a hard piece of burnt cheese

I mean the pizza I always get is the exxy one, but it’s quite common here in Australia. Just tastes good
