    Don’t call it a grilled cheese if all you’re going to do is put cheese between bread and microwave it. Literally Islands made a better GRILLED cheese the week before. I don’t like posting bad reviews but get it together..

    It's Panera. They have changed the recipe for the cinnamon roll for the worse.
