Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

When we visited street food champs Grill My Cheese’s pop up in Selfridges Foodhall, we were treated to mouth-watering toasties including their Hot cross bun cheese toastie.

What is it, we hear you ask? It’s Grill My Cheese’s limited edition treat specially made for Easter. Think soft, classic hot cross buns filled with brie, cheddar and spiced salted caramel. The humble hot cross bun has been given a makeover!

This seasonal toast is already doing its appearance on social media and national press…

Its makers are going to be at Selfridges for four weeks from its 19 March launch.

Grill My Cheese’s menu includes classics such as the GMC (Signature cheese blend of Farmhouse mature cheddar, Farmhouse cow milk mozzarella and béchamel sauce) and Mac Attack (Mac ’n’ cheese, homemade BBQ sauce and signature cheese blend) with an option for customers to make it a Selfridges Special i.e. with lashings of extra truffle.

And of course the infamous Rainbow Toastie, which is made up of beetroot and caramelised onion flavoured cheeses, goats cheese and truffle hunter truffle oil, is firmly in the menu. The beetroot, rocket and caramelised onions (plus a tiny bit of blue colouring) make up the colours of its Rainbow Toastie.

And all these seriously indulgent toasties can be washed down with a refreshing, all natural fruit slushie.
