OK, I'll bite - why is there a thermometer in the grilled cheese sandwich? If you can't tell when one is done (brown outside and melty inside) perhaps you shouldn't be using hot things like a stove. Come to think of it, the examples in the picture look kind of anemic and pale.
thanks for biting. I found the photo in our archives and thought it was weird. it accompanied a story about the twice-yearly inspections of Maryland high-school cafeterias. I'll try to hunt down that article
