We also have Dietz & Watson at certain groceries, and they’re roughly equivalent. Their steakhouse caramelized onion cheddar is a GREAT workhorse cheese. I get it every time I see it; it’s a nice cheat cheese for making a faux-Philly cheeseteak.

What kind of cheese?

Called "Munkens svarta". Translates as "The Monks's black". The brand is known as "Wästgöta kloster" (West Gothia abbey) It is relativerly mild, with a bit of salty taste and small holes in in. I think the type is usually called Prästost (Priest's cheese).
I don’t knock simple. Simple can be awesome.
That looks like it qualifies.

I’d say yes, but if it’s sealed, that’s a calzone, and thus, a hand pie.

Currently a lot of places near me are doing collaborations with bands for Warped Tour, so I decided to try the I Have A Date Shake and Anarchy Burger (Hold the Government) combo. The former is just a normal date shake, and not a sandwich, so I won't talk more about it. The latter has charred pineapple, pulled pork, sriracha, pepper jack, and a coleslaw that allegedly has kimchi. I didn't detect any, but it's possible they just mixed white kimchi into their regular cole slaw mix. They also branded the top bun with the anarchy symbol.
All in all a pretty good cheese burger, and for the part of town it's in the 15 dollar price tag (this was a condition Warped insisted on for all the participating restaurants) for a burger, fries, and a shake is a great deal.

I’d be on that, hard!
I’m still getting some stuff at my local Farmers’ Market, including things I put on sandwiches.
Recently, I’ve been making faux pastrami Reubens with one vendor’s pickled red cabbage instead of sauerkraut. Their product is slightly sweet, so it’s a little departure from the classic recipe.
And another vendor has been keeping me in onion, garlic and radish sprouts for a few years now, when conditions permit. I mostly use them on soups, salads & sandwiches, but also on pasta or potatoes on occasion.
The garlic ones are my 3rd choice for when the others aren’t available.
The radish sprouts are #2, and have a grassy/peppery flavor.
But the clear winners are the onion sprouts. They’re grassy, too, with a subtle ghost of onions presence. Not only do I like them, Mom has started requesting them herself.

I don't think I've ever eaten any bulb sprouts that were intentionally grown. I might have to track some down, or grow some, they sound interesting.
