You'll be having all the fun in the world with these fundido flatbreads. (You thought we wouldn't go there. We're going there.) Fundido means “molten cheese” and these flatbreads have cheese sauce on the bottom and cheese on top, for a double cheese experience that puts the "more" into molten. As in, we want more of that flatbread. … … … Okay, that one was a stretch.
