URA World Assembly Recommendation

Grilled Cheese Act
The General Assembly,

Recognizing the universal significance of grilled cheese as a culinary delight for all ages, whether it be children eating lunch on a weekend, an adult making their own and dipping it in a soup, or anybody looking for a late-night snack;

Acknowledging the diverse and often misguided interpretations of grilled cheese across cultures, and seeking to rectify these misguided interpretations;

Affirming the need for a universally accepted definition to promote grilled cheese purity;

Hereby:

Defines a grilled cheese as containing melted cheese between two slices of toasted bread, served hot, with optional spread on the bread;

  • Defines bread as a baked good made primarily of flour, a leavening agent, water mixed together;

  • Defines cheese as a food made primarily from pressed curds of milk; may also have cream, buttermilk, or any other flavor altering agent;

  • Defines spread as any spreadable food, e.g. butter, mayo, oil, animal fat;

Encourages World Assembly member states to promote variations of grilled cheese to further culinary variations of grilled cheese and to improve the grilled cheese experience for citizens of World Assembly member states multiverse-wide;

Emphasizes the importance of using high-quality cheese and bread in the preparation of grilled cheese, and to toast the bread until golden-brown, not black or light brown, and to ensure the cheese is fully melted without turning to liquid;

The World Assembly requires that all member states shall prohibit any heated sandwich that does not contain only bread, cheese, and spread to be labelled a "grilled cheese sandwich", and that any sandwich not containing only the aforesaid ingredients must be labelled a "melt". The labelling requirements are applicable to all sandwiches sold or imported/exported by any WA state. The Food and Drug Regulatory Agency of the World Assembly is responsible for enforcement of this labelling requirement.

This GENERAL ASSEMBLY resolution was written by Eternal algerstonia to clarify the usage of the term "Grilled Cheese Sandwich" particularly through labelling requirements. You can find the drafting thread on the forums here.
The United Regions Alliance recommends that you vote AGAINST the resolution

QUICK This resolution seeks to define what a grilled cheese sandwich is, as well as protect its status through the enforcement of labelling requirements. Unfortunately, it falls short of accomplishing this goal effectively. The definitions provided for a grilled cheese sandwich are too broad on several aspects of the sandwich, resulting in the potential allowance of a technically legal "grilled cheese sandwich" that utilizes a primary spreading agent that is not appropriate for grilling, such as jam and/or jelly. Additionally, the definition does not cover other essential considerations for grilled cheese sandwiches, such as the method of cooking them. As such, the United Regions Alliance recommends a vote AGAINST this resolution.


The following comments were given during discussion on the LinkURA Discord server:

Suvmia wrote:Strongly against, the definition of "spread" allows for the creation of a grilled cheese sandwich that has jam as the primary spreading agent, instead of an appropriate grilling agent like butter, oil, etc.

And

Suvmia wrote:There is also a disturbing shift between a strictly defined grilled cheese (as discussed, poorly defined) but also a call to action for culinary expansion - pick a lane, Algerstonia

Conch Kingdom Voting Member Duby wrote,

Duby wrote:The only reason I go against is for the reason Suvmia listed above about the spread. Clearly it should go more specific that it should be a fat-based spread, instead of just spread. If a revision came in the future that went more specific on the spread, I would be in favor. For now, I must be against.

URA World Assembly Recommendation


[center]Education And Availability Of Basic Medical Devices

This GENERAL ASSEMBLY resolution was written by Walfo this resolution aims to bridge the gap in emergency medical care outside of traditional medical centers.

The URA believes that its members should vote for this proposal because providing basic life-saving equipment in public spaces like Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs), First Aid kits, and Opiate overdose prevention kits. Will help save lives before first responders get on the scene. Ensuring that citizens have easy access without unnecessary barriers will save lives.

The mandating of the Curriculum which includes basic medical device operation and basic life support maneuvers, equips our youth with life-saving skills. This resolution will also ensure all nations in the World Assembly get aid from the General Fund so that poorer nations will not be left behind in implementing this.

In conclusion, this resolution looks to improve the overall health and well-being of our World Assembly Nations.
