Viral paneer toast is a grilled cheese midlife crisis

Hot honey paneer toast is the latest recipe taking over the internet because apparently the bar for culinary innovation is now just pouring sticky glaze on basic protein. I have seen more creative uses for cheese at a mid-tier airport lounge. People act like they have cracked the code of fusion when they are really just making a sticky mess of their kitchens for three hundred likes. It is the same branding logic that makes people think a designer t-shirt is a luxury investment when it is just a heavy cotton rag with a font. It is bread. It is cheese. Grow up.
