There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

Melting without breaking. It's cheese and emulsifier mixed together so the oils don't separate out. People often use egg for the same reason when making cheese sauces.
It was developed specifically to melt perfectly on burgers. As a cheese enjoyer I'll tell you, American cheese is not bad, but it's only good for two things: on burgers, and in grilled cheese sandwiches paired with tomato soup. Anyone that's so snobbish as to not recognize these uses, is not fit to dine on the cheese they're so full of.
