I may. Looking at the recipe, it sounds perfect for me.

For me it's a peanut butter and jelly sandwich but a grilled cheese comes close, hence why I had it for dinner.

It's decadent, but very warming on a cold day. Raclette can be hard to come by, but is carried occasionally by Whole Foods as individual slices in a small pack, IIRC. Take the rind off, and you're all set.

I've probably had <5 in my 50+ years. My mom isn't a sandwich person so my school lunches never included a sandwich. And even today, if I'm going to eat a sandwich it is going to be an exceptional one. So I might have a foie gras and jelly on some artisanal bread, but I'm never making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Sandwich. In fact, the only peanut butter that gets consumed in our house is by my husband, or maybe in a dessert recipe.

I'm an oddity when it comes to food. I'm a very adventurous eater, but there's some stuff I almost never eat. The average American allegedly eats 71 pounds of ketchup a year, and I may use the equivalent of two or three fast-food packets a year (maybe a twice that if we make meatloaf, which we make very infrequently).

In a typical year, we might consume one bottle of ketchup. Thats maybe 1/2 pound each. This year was different. We bought a bottle every Air BnB stay, so now I have 4 partial ketchup bottles in the fridge. Good reminder to look at the expiration dates.

rye slices with butter

Hot corned beef sandwich on dark rye with Cole slaw & fries

I make pb&j for my child at home as school is nut/free and we all dislike sunflower butter. I still enjoy peanut butter on toast. I loved foie gras and only ate it as foie gras without distractions just like eating caviar or oysters on their own. I dont want their accompaniments.

Pork chop with Marsala cream sauce and broccoli for dinner tonight.

Re: pb&j. I have been lactose intolerant since birth so that and peanut butter and crackers were two of my go to easy meals as a kid. It’s only as an adult that I’ve been able to add grilled cheese, and I have to be careful with that. For those of you that can’t or won’t have peanut butter, thank you for saving more for me.

As to ketchup, I may have used one fast food packet size if it this year, if that much.

and of course now one can understand how someone hasnt had a pb&j - its due to nut allergies. Some people really like sunflower seed butter as an alternative :-)
