if loving these sandwiches is wrong, i don’t wanna be right


It’s the sign of the digital times — even cheese makers have a Facebook page. In this case, it’s Tillamook, a farmer-owned cooperative cheese company headquartered in Tillamook, Oregon. I thought I was just expressing my love for the taste when I signed up as a fan, but now they’re sharing fun things with me like this easy recipe for melted cheese sandwiches with rabbit and kitty faces. Too cute! But cute enough to eat. –Mary T.

I love Tillamook cheese. My grandma was originally from Oregon, so she’d always bring us back large bricks of the sharp cheddar when she returned from a visit. It’s almost impossible to find in Maine now, though, and expensive to ship. I suppose I can drool from afar!

Caroline, try Trader Joe’s, if you have one? They usually carry the regular cheddar. (I’m an Oregon Native who grew up obsessed w/ visits to the Tillamook Cheese Factory and eating the squeaky curds in the shop!)

Thanks Kate! Alas, the closest Trader Joe’s is in Massachusetts, about five hours away (yep, I live in the boonies). But the next time I’m in that area I’ll definitely check it out!
