Nah… when it comes to parmesan on garlic bread, you’ve gotta go with the ole’ green can with the sprinke/scoop top thingy.

I’m against the stuff (canned crap, not parmesan) in all other usages, but on garlic bread, it’s the only way to fly.

I disagree. There simply is no place for that vaguely cheese-flavored sawdust that comes in the green can.

Anyhow, I like my garlic bread without cheese, although a light shaving of pecorino, grana padano, or even parmesan will do fine.

I worked at a pizza joint in high school. You get bored with the regular way to make the food when you wanna eat. Why I started eating ranch dressing with pizza and toasted ravioli.  
[/QUOTE]

This is exactly how I found out about the awesomeness of ranch on pizza. Working at the pizza joint is also how I discovered the divinity of the pairing of pineapple and jalepeno.

Back OT:  
I have never dreamed of putting parmesan on garlic toast but now I am definitely going to experiment.

There is one danger in Garlic Parmesan toast however.

Over a year ago for a birthday I got a Panini grill. Now I love Paninis, but I still havn’t made one yet one. Because everytime I get yummy, good bread for a proper Panini I end up eating it all as Garlic Parmesan bread. I have had to fake the “How well does it work, we were thinking of getting one for ourselves” conversation for over a year now.
