    IMO the ideal thing to do for hamburgers, mac and cheese, and grilled cheeses (the three foods that I would consider using American cheese for) is this:

    Half american cheese for meltiness, half gruyere or other aged flavorful cheese for flavor.

    A lot of modern recipes suggest that approach and it has worked well for me.






  • This is just about possible in NYC if you 1) work in a high-rise by a station 2) commute during peak times with frequent trains 3) live in a high-rise by a station.

    For example: Downtown Brooklyn or Exchange Place high-rise <=> WTC.

    The other option would be to live within walking distance. A <20 minute walking distance to a downtown or midtown office is reasonable.











  • +1. The joy of camping (for me) is that your experience is directly related to your preparation. You plan your location, activities, meals, sleeping arrangements, and companions, doing all of the research and investment up front to make each of those work well, taking into account weather and conditions, and then you get to enjoy a trip where everything goes well with people you care about, with the satisfaction that the experience that you are having is the direct result of your actions.

    Of course, the pain of camping is that any and all of the above can go wrong, and then, indeed, it’s probably gonna suck.
