Double Play Burgers

When I moved to Southern California in 1986, I discovered t what is known as a double - double. Double cheeseburgers were a common offering at the drive in stands when I grew up, but the west coast selection of cheeses was very different. Our options were American or Cheddar. The American and Cheddar used by small burger chains in California are completely different. The White American used in California (a combination of Swiss and White Cheddar), has a more pronounced flavor. The cheddar is pretty much the same, but sliced a little thicker.
