You can add too much mozzarella and the strings will be infinite. Stilly tasty.
You must be my friend that got high cholesterol in his thirties.
Ewww cheese.
I do the same with garlic. Usually two or three times of what the recipe says.
There is not a single reason in the world not to do so.
I do that! Recipes say "add one clove of garlic" I do at least 5. I swear recipes are written by vampires
I do the same because I love garlic too .... unfortunately, this past winter, I discovered there is an upper limit to this 'one neat trick' ..... an entire head of raw garlic on a piece of toast is enough to wish you could physically remove your colon from own body for a few hours.

No recipe should ever have only 1 clove of garlic. Unless it’s a recipe for 1 clove of garlic and even then you should at least double it.
There's actually a better way to get more garlic flavor into your dishes without adding more. The secret is to add the garlic at the last possible moment in the cooking process to reduce the garlic oxidation. The more it oxidizes the less flavor it has. It oxidizes the second you break the cell walls so waiting until the end of possible helps retain the flavor and make it more potent!

I might be an outlier here, but I absolutely think there is such a thing as too much cheese. My partner and I have regular disagreements about how much should be put on a pizza when we're making one at home.
There is such a thing, but it's never wrong to put double the amount in the recipe.
Adding too much cheese can keep the the middle of the pizza from cooking properly, just like too much sauce or too many large chunks of vegetables with high water content. It takes a LOT of cheese to reach that point, but it is very possible when combined with the large chunks of vegetables.

Recipe: Add 1/4 cup of cheese.
Me: Adding 1 cup of cheese got it.
One 4 cups of cheese, got it.
Oh, there is DEFINITELY a point where too much cheese becomes a mistake. Somewhere around 400%, I think. I felt sick for days…
400% of a body mass?
'a' body mass
Betelgeuse's body mass?
Cheese black hole devouring the universe.
I just watched the climate town video yesterday and that was a hell of a journey. I didn't realize how pervasive milk was in America, and it's not by choice

It's a curse. All my pasta dishes join the Mac and cheese family.
