7 fast-food chains that use real cheese

Daily Mail​a day ago
Cheese can elevate a basic sandwich or burger into something crave-worthy – especially when it's made with minimal ingredients and little processing. Whether it's rich cheddar, mellow Swiss, or creamy Pepper Jack, real cheese adds irresistible flavor and texture. While some menu items call for processed cheese like American, there's no substitute for the real thing. These seven fast-food chains are known for using real cheese in their menu items.
1. Wendy's
Wendy's incorporates real cheese in several of its offerings, including the Spicy Asiago Ranch Chicken Club, which features Asiago cheese. 'Over the years, we've used smoked gouda, blue cheese, asiago and feta on hamburgers, chicken sandwiches and salads. Fresh mozzarella is the latest evolution of delivering fresh cheese to customers,' the company said when they launched the BelGioioso cheese on their menu in 2017.
2. Chick-fil-A
At Chick-fil-A, sandwiches like the Spicy Deluxe come topped with real Pepper Jack cheese. 'Spicy deluxe is truly one of the best things in life' one fan said. Another commented: 'I always get their spicy chicken with pepper jack cheese. It's a good combination.'
3. Shake Shack
4. Freddy's
5. Burger King
Burger King uses real Swiss cheese on its Bacon Swiss Royal Crispy Chicken sandwich. 'It's one of the best non-Whopper items on the menu' one fan says. 'Prefer it in Fiery form but the bacon/swiss one is good, too. And the crispy wraps are worth a try, too. Honey Mustard is the best of the 3, IMO.'

Backlash as iconic landmark removed from Lake Mead reservoir

An iconic Nevada landmark has been removed from Lake Mead as officials labelled it an 'eyesore.' A vertical speedboat that stuck out of the lake's waters, known as the monolith of Lake Mead, served as an unofficial water level marker and a popular spot for a photo. National Park Service officials confirmed that the famed wreck has been removed in an effort to preserve the area's image as part of the Love Lake Mead program. 'We understand that some were curious about the abandoned boat in the Las Vegas Wash area. But the boat, like other abandoned boats, was also viewed as an eyesore and nuisance - and poorly represented the quality of boating recreation at Lake Mead,' Lake Mead Superintendent Mike Gauthier said in a statement to 8 News Now. 'We communicated with our concessioners, recreation partners, and gateway business community, and they agreed that removing trash, abandoned camps, pop-ups, and derelict boats helps to restore and protect the grandeur of Lake Mead.' The boat garnered attention as waters in Lake Mead disappeared during the summer of 2022, and the boat was seen above the waters surface for the first time. A devastating drought had brought the waters of the 112-mile-long lake on the Nevada-Arizona border to dangerously low levels, exposing sunken boats, the bodies of missing dead people, and dried up fish carcasses. Shocking photos emerged of the cracked dirt where waters that millions in the state rely on used to sit. A devastating drought had brought the waters of the 112-mile-long lake on the Nevada-Arizona border to dangerously low levels, exposing sunken boats, the bodies of missing dead, and dried up fish carcasses Water levels receded almost 60 feet in the two years before the drought, at which point it reached lows of 1040 feet above sea level. Since its surfacing, the iconic boat served as a symbol of the areas diminishing water levels. 'That was our Statue of Liberty,' one fan wrote on Facebook. Many social media users said the boat was often used to mark water levels and described it as an 'icon' of the lake. 'Hopefully they move it to the visitor center entrance,' one user commented. 'Icon!! It should have went on a vote for the lake mead boaters community,' another said. Others queried why the boats weren't removed during the 2022 drought that exposed most of the sunken wrecks almost entirely. The iconic upright boat became one of the most famous throughout the reservoir, and was named 'Skyward' by one regular visitor. 'We had named all the boat wrecks back in 2022 because we kept finding so many, we wanted the audience to be able to keep track,' Joey Alexander told the outlet. '"Skyward" by far was the most famous. The next popular? "Higgins," at the marina.' It's contents, including a teddy bear and other personal items, were documented as part of the mystery surrounding the vessel. However, despite the attention that the abandoned wrecks were getting, Gauthier made it clear in a community meeting in 2023 that he believed in a better reputation for the lake. 'We don't want our visual to be abandoned boats,' he said. 'We want our visual to be people having a great time at the lake.' Jill Lagan, CEO of the Boulder City Chamber of Commerce, told 8 News Now: 'Lake Mead is one of our region's greatest assets, and how it's cared for matters - to our visitors, our economy, and our identity as a gateway community. 'We support the Park's efforts to remove abandoned boats and other blight that detract from the lake's beauty. Restoring the shoreline is not just about aesthetics - it's about protecting the experience that brings people back to Boulder City and to the lake year after year.' Alexander, although a fan of the iconic landmark, added: 'Though the Skyward boat had become an icon of the Lake Mead drought and was a popular landmark for many, including me, it was also a reminder of our water quality.

Trump says he ‘had to' pave over White House Rose Garden lawn

Donald Trump has claimed he is receiving "great reviews" for his makeover of the White House Rose Garden, which involved replacing the lawn with a stone patio. He justified the redesign, saying 'we had to do it' as the previous grass area was often wet and muddy, making it unsuitable for its intended purpose. The new patio features white stone, described as matching the White House and designed to reflect heat. Despite Trump's positive assessment, social media users widely criticised the redesign, likening it to a "parking lot" or "concrete jungle" and "devoid of life". The historic Rose Garden, opened in 1913 and enhanced by Jackie Kennedy, now features a layout that pushes its signature rose bushes to the periphery, reminiscent of Trump's Mar-a-Lago property.
