I did say perhaps in another thread that I spaced out and used it a few
times on a grilled or toasted cheese sandwich. Combined with my faux cheese
and done in the microwave (not the way I normally do it), it is edible. I
think because the microwave will make it a tad soggy anyway. But in a
skillet or in the oven? Will be inedible.

My friend is the one who said not to try to cook with it. Her son
accidentally bought this for her when she was home recovering from an
operation. It is not what she normally buys and apparently she did try to
cook with it. That wasn't a good time for her. Her son didn't even buy
half of what was on her list and since she had been stuck home and ill, had
been unable to get groceries for some time. So seeing as how the cupboard
was pretty bare, she tried to make do with what she had.

In case anyone is wondering, I was unable to get out there to do shopping
for her. She lives in another city. I can't remember now what all was
going on in my life but I do remember that I simply couldn't do it.
