Impossible. At least my method for a cheese toastie. (brit engl. possibly similar to grilled cheese) Two pieces of bread in a toaster, toast to preference. Build with slices of cheese (cut from a block, not from packets you monsters!) put this ‘toast cheese sandwich’ in a microwave for 15-20s, Again to taste of how melted you want the cheese. Result; the toast is still crisp because it’s not microwaved long enough to soften, the cheese can be melted less than those horrific toaster iron things, it’s less greasy.

A grill cheese is cooked on a stove, not a toaster and microwave.

And not on(under) a grill either so the point is moot. Also the ‘toastie’ I’ve mentioned as possibly similar - clearly not similar apart from bread and cheese ingredients.

They’re cooked on flattop grills, hence “grilled cheese.”

I’ve only ever seen these in restaurant kitchens or street-food vans. By the way people refer to grilled cheese, it’s as if everyone grills at home.

This is a deal-breaker. It should be like fried bread, not toast

I least can eat this as often as I want and not expect a heart attack.

Cholesterol is mostly genetic anyway. Got tested for mandatory work health inspection same time as my friend who weighed 40 kilos less at the time. And is at least 2-3 cm taller than me. Healthy eater. One year younger than me.
I don’t remember the exact numbers but their “bad” one (I never remember if it’s the HDL or the LDL) was a bit over the limit, my entire blood panel was perfect. I’m an overweight slob who eats tons of fatty meats, etc.
If you’ve already got high cholesterol, you’re doomed and probably shouldn’t be eating cheese in the first place. If you don’t, you might not need to worry about it at all.

In the same way microwaved spam is possibly similar to a steak
