Yet another thing that PISSES ME OFF to no extent is yuppie-bitch-marketing people, [not you Mr. Middlebrow], that make up a new fancy way to describe an old thing.
After careful & deep research I found out that Panini is just another way of saying......
A GRILLED SANDWICH!
Nothing more, nothing less. A couple chunks of bread, meat, cheese, and grill. THAT IS IT!
I did not know as a child, and continuing through the years of college, every time my mother, friend, or myself, made a grilled ham & cheese. We were making a 'gourmet delicacy'.
So cut the crap marketing people. Call a grilled sandwich, a fucking grilled sandwich!
And save us the cost of the bullshit ads that jack the goddamn price up of said sandwich.
Because I know many people that would rather pick up & eat a grilled cheese sandwich for $.50 than spend $5.00+ for the same damn thing that is called a name that nobody really understands.
Ohhh, wait, I finally see the ploy now. Not many people know what panini means, they just know it is trendy & that they gotta have it. Now it makes sense.
Blessed Be, And now I'm gonna go grill myself a panini on my George Forman waffle grille.
{note the 'e' on the end of grill? It makes it more trendy}

Not to twist your knickers tighter, but do you know what you say when you want a grilled ham and cheese sandwich in Italy?
"Un toast, per favore."
Mmmm...irony.
