Grate mistake
Perhaps it's because I'm a messy eater, but I almost always end up surrounded and covered by the stuff when I eat a cheese sandwich at my desk.
The reason: most sarnie shops use grated cheese rather than slices and (in my experience) it always spills out of the bread on to trousers, my desk and the carpet beneath.
That might be good news for any mice lurking about - but it's very bad news for office cleaners,
I'm sure the reason sandwich-makers use grated cheese is because a little goes a long way, but I wish they'd stop.
Come on - use sliced cheese, folks.

Features Editor Paul Fulford gives his verdict on the region’s restaurants.
You are so right, Mr Fulford. Grated chese in sandwiches is an abomination - compounded by the fact that the grated yelow substance is frequently that exercise in pointlessness - mild cheddar. It is nothing more than a brazen cost-cutting (and bizarrely, I think counter-productive) tactic - and it's well past time it was exposed.
To its credit, Philpotts uses slices of cheese. I have no shares in Philpotts.
I share your admiration of Philpotts - their coronation chicken sandwiches are wonderful - even though, as a republican, I despise the name. Perhaps they would agree to rename it the October 1917 sandwich.
