Sunday is officially National Grilled Cheese Day, and honestly, it’s the perfect excuse to keep lunch as simple... and satisfying... as it gets!
Despite 61% of Americans crowning it their favorite sandwich, a surprising 75% admit they’re not confident in their grilled cheese game. Maybe that’s because people keep overthinking it. Sure, there’s debate, 71% swear by butter for that perfect golden crust while a bold 12% ride with mayo, and 68% say multiple cheeses are the move, but at its core, this sandwich thrives on simplicity.
Whether you’re team white bread (43%) or leaning sourdough or brioche, and whether you cut it diagonally like a civilized human (52%) or just dive in whole, the grilled cheese is comfort food without the complications.
And let’s be real, Sunday is also the final day of the Masters, so a pimento grilled cheese might feel on theme!
But before you get fancy, remember the basics still win: Spread the butter, margarine, mayo... whatever you are using, all the way to the outside corners of the bread on both sides, and give it a couple minutes to toast up nice in the pan on one side before flipping it over to the other side and repeat! Simple. Easy. Tasty.
Golden brown (just how 70% prefer it), melty in the middle and maybe paired with tomato soup... no bacon, no eggs, no distractions. Sometimes the best bite is the simplest one!
