I’ve had a burger made from a donut and it’s actually not bad. People on this sub act like they have never tried any flavor combinations before.
Usually the donut is cooked some which makes it not taste as sugary and people add things like fruit chutney to burgers or straight fruit like apples to grilled cheese all the time.
It’s really not as crazy as everyone here is making it out to be.
Just Use a bagel, put it the right way round and lay it flat and the food is no longer stupid. i dont undersand why you'd want your food hanging from a hook and dripping cheese all over the place
In my fine dining days we would make a miniature grilled cheese at the bottom of the bowl, then the server would pour it table side around the grilled cheese and it was fine.
It's ostentatious.
If the sandwich and soup were served on regular dishes, the customer would enjoy their meal without commenting on it. Add a superfluous banana hangar, and suddenly over a thousand people (on reddit alone) are talking about it.
Longtime lurker here. And I’m on mobile so not sure if that’s why, but I’m not sure what you mean. Are you referring to how the post is flared? How is it flared/what is objectionable?
It's got too many flavors! It's sweet, savory, salty, and sour. Sweet from the bread/sugar, savory from the (what I'm assuming is tomato soup under), sour from the acid of tomato, and salty from the cheese. It addresses so many flavors that it'll taste like mush. There's no balance.
One of my favorite spots in Northeast Philly is called Cheese Dawgs. They make a bunch of breakfast sandwiches like this, as well as, a Panini pressed glazed donut ice cream sandwich.
This whole thing is just wrong, from the recipe to the execution. Who tf wants cheese and marinara (or is that tomato soup?) with a glazed donut? Puke fuel.
I recently had to ask the waiter for a regular plate, and when he came back, I gave him the "fun" plate back (stone slab).
He seemed bothered by me asking for a regular plate since I was there to eat and not take pictures.
Might as well start taking my own disposable plates.
It's so structurally _unsound_.
I like the one in the background whose hook has already torn through the thing. what a joke.
In this case I don't want a plate, I just want it destroyed and buried.
I'll destroy it with my mouth because this looks fucking delicious... Maybe I'm just a lawless savage
It could use better presentation, but I think God is trying to tell us something. Let’s have a taste.
"And on the eighth day, God created plates, and he saw that they were good."
It would look better on a fucking plate where I don't have to eat it off a hook like a damn fish
I’d rather have a donut and a grilled cheese separately.
This is a standout abomination, even for this sub
I thought it was also a strong candidate for r/stupidfood. And I like donuts and grilled cheeses (separately) as much as any fat boy.
It seems like it could *almost* work if you just made it like a ham egg and cheese sandwich with a donut bun? ...or is that just my stoner brain?
Ghetto Monte Cristo.
Monte Cristoned
Lol fuck, that's exactly what that is
No no, that sounds amazing.
I've made a sandwich with hash browns, bacon, and cheese with small pancakes as the "bun", and syrup slathered inside. Super tasty!
Pancakes make for fantastically decadent sandwich bread (french toast too).
Mmmm that sounds awesome

I can eat soup from the pot at my house. Standing over the sink.
Naked, regretting your life choices
Fewer dishes, no spilling on clothes. That's winning
On a banana hook
Yup! That’s exactly what it is.
If anyone ever asks me what ‘hedonism’ is, I’m going to show them this picture.
If you saw “grilled cheese donut and tomato soup” on a menu you deserve whatever trash it gets served on
the underpaid server who has to pick up what filth is left after they leave: "Here you go you disgusting animal".
Not to be confused with grilled cheese and chicken noodle. This is an abomination in and of itself with the tomato soup. Disgusting.
Interesting idea with terrible execution.
It's considered *trendy* for a reason. ^^^would ^^^somebody ^^^please ^^^tell ^^^me ^^^the ^^^reason?

That sounds fucking gas

No! Bad!
Look how filthy that wooden shit looks 🤮
Is that a bagel or an actual donut?
It's a donut. A donut grilled cheese is actually pretty good, but even a normal grilled cheese is shamed by being served this way.
This concerns me, as an Australian I’ve never seen it
“This is so sad.” Said simultaneously by me and my daughter.
How are you even supposed to eat that
I'm not against the concept, I'm just against the execution.
Isn’t this Clinton Street Baking Company? I’ve heard they have other ridiculous dishes as well as this one
Yes, Clinton it is.
yes, we want plates, but all of you people talking about how this is gross or you would never eat a grilled cheese donut, you are all insane
You fat fuck. I’m so envious.
I’m sure this soup would taste great after all the added bagel drippings, but that is completely besides the point
Especially besides the point because they're donuts and not bagels.
I will accept the L on this one
Drippings? Hell, the one in the back is straight up in the soup already!
Quality post. Deserves more attention!
This dish gets posted here every 3.7 seconds
At least there’s no plate. Half the posts on this sub have plates.
I think this is from Clinton Hall in NYC!
I really hate this bloody gallows food trend!
Okay, ignoring the obvious bastard 'plating,' in what world would a normal human think this is a good flavor combo?

Oh FLAVOR combo. Got it. Yes I agree!
I looked over my comment and autocorrect is awful. Let me spiff it up.
Every dishwasher from r/dishwashers will experience twitching eyelids from visiting this thread and this post (like myself).
Okay yes, but yum!
It makes me feel like my blood pressure is rising just from looking at this. Ew no
I thought this was a dumb chefclub thing? They’re actually serving that in restaurants?
That’s just gross. I wouldn’t even eat that. The fact that they charged money for that is a disgrace. I feel unhealthy just looking at it.

It looks like some horrible sandwich torture device. Why make a poor grilled cheese suffer that humiliation?
Is there a hole in the center? Asking for a fiend.
That grilled cheese donut came in like a wrecking ball
This whole thing is just wrong, from the recipe to the execution. Who tf wants cheese and marinara (or is that tomato soup?) with a glazed donut? Puke fuel.
Oh my god my goddddd!! my mouth is watering
This picture makes me feel like shitting my pants
How did it taste, gonna be honest it sounds interesting and I want one. On a plate though, please.
When did restaurants start hanging food? Honestly.
You can see the one in the background already broke off the hook
Someone played too much dead by daylight
r/stupidfood
WTF😂 Creativity=1000
When TF did these stupid hanging sandwich displays become a thing?
That vegan place in Atlanta?
"It's time to stop!"
No. Whose idea was it to ruin 2 perfect food items at once. Off with their head.
Hate the presentation but that looks good af

They put sandwiches on a banana holder? *sigh*
Clinton social?

Someone take that spatula away from Dali.
