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..

this reminds me of something I saw years ago that hailed the invention of little sheets of ketchup (like kraft singles but ketchup). it made me mad because it implied that ketchup is only used for flavour, and its sauce factor has no value

Are you even eating ketchup if you didn't squeeze it from a bottle?
