Let battle commence - Cheese on toast Vs Cheese Toastie

[TheBloatedFish]

From the people who brought you Jam Vs Marmalade, comes a new battle that could change the fate of human kind everywhere but will probably jst serve as a means to keep me from the brink of insanity.
In the red corner we have the classic, the big cheese, the original CHEESE ON TOAST!!!
and
In the blue corner we have the new kid on the block, the melt, the filling CHEESE TOASTIE!!!
FIGHT!

I was in a "diner" in Southern Illinois once and saw Milktoast on the menu. Not being able to imagine that it was just milk on toast I asked the waitress what it was. She looked at me an in a Southern drawl said "You 'aint from around here are you sweetie?".

Yeah, it was milk poured over toast. Duh. The cheese over toast looks good.

Baked Beans on toast.

Shits on all the rest.

[StudMuffin]

Toasties - sometimes known as "jaffles" - are great when filled with stuff out of a tin, like braised steak and onions, or spagetti in tomato sauce ...

[Thyrd]

I shall try these jaffles this morning for breakfast.

[SOC]

Jaffles are best cooked over a campfire in the bush using a JAFFLE IRON (http://www.discountcamping.com.au/index/products/castiron/cooking?PHPSESSID=71d4ef69a5803820b156564a41c8a017 #728) :D

You can also cook a jaffle with baked beans, but I don't like baked beans so I've never had one so cannot tell you what they are like. But the braised steak and onions is yummy, especially when you also put in some cheese.

[TheBloatedFish]

In my opinion you cnt beat the classic cheese on toast with a bit of lee&perrins quality!

[TheJackal001]

Go a toastie but then you have to cut it in half and chuck some BBQ sauce in the pocket. So damn tastie, now i want a cheese toastie..... foood.

[Thyrd]

Actually the greatest cheese on toast recipe I've had is:

Cheese(as much as you like)
worcestershire sauce(1 tsp)
tomato sauce (2 tblsp)

And if you like some chopped onion and in my case 2 tblsp of dijon mustard too. Melt it all together in a microwave and spread it on the toast or put it in a toastie. Delish!

[deevil]

um, is a toastie just a grilled cheese sandwich? ...

Anyways, if a toastie IS just a grilled cheese sandwich I highly recommend eating it with strawberry jam.... YUM!

[deevil]

Oh, and no generic processed cheese slices either, has to be good quality (i've had some nasty processed cheese slices in the past, the only one's i'll eat are Kraft).

[TheBloatedFish]

mmm kraft dinner :)

[eeefreak]

Cheese on Toast is the supreme ruler of the universe, but only if you put vegemite on it first.

So to recap.... Toast, spread on vegemite, put on cheese, GRILL!!!!!

I challenge you Toastie infidels to beat that recipe for breakfast goodness!!

[TheBloatedFish]

"That sure was fun Phillip, let's go home and eat Kraft Dinner"

[BlueBoy]

Toastie =Jaffle.
Now if you want something really good: butter two slices of bread, lay tasty cheese on both and sprinkle with Tunisian Tabil. Grill.
Fold them on to one another and grill the outside of both slices.

Toasted Cheese Sandwich of the Gods.

Theres nothing better then kraft diner, except for sex while eating kraft diner.


Except for paper pirate hats.

*has made one for every person on my team*

What you guys are calling a toastie looks like what we call grilled cheese, and from the jaffle iron it looks like I'm correct. Now grilled cheese is wonderful with thick soups like tomato or cream of mushroom and can be delicious topped with jelly or jam, or with mustard.

The other looks like cheese toast which can be topped with ham, bacon, tomato or any number of wonderful things, and also goes well with soup.

So both are delicious and nutritious.

[Arcainus]

Ah, well if they're grilled cheese, then I'm giving it two thumbs up. I was wondering what teh hell a jaffle was.

[TheBloatedFish]

A jaffle is a toastie and a toastie is basically a sandwich that has been sealed through heat using a toatie maker. Its a toasted sandwich with melted cheese in the middle simple !

It's always been just a jaffle to me.

What really annoys me though is when people call it a Breville, breville is just the name of a company that makes kitchen appliances(& invented designed obsolescence), they weren't even the first ones making electric jaffle irons, Sunbeam were.

[ms edeity]

In our house jaffles/toasties are called flat Stanleys. (the kids like to think that we sqished Stanley up(from a book) and made a sandwich - so I usually include ham and sauce with the cheese for them. Also - whatever you put in it YOU MUST BUTTER THE OUTSIDE OF THE BREAD!!! No-one wants the healthy option if your eating melted cheese, and it's damn good!

[TheBloatedFish]

It is true please do butter the outside cause honestly who needs good health when you have a tasty toastie/jaffle/grilled cheese/flat stanley.

Do you know what these "jaffles" are called in my house? a fucking grilled sandwitch. I may come from a simple people, but at least i dont need a dictionary to find out what I'm eating. :elefant:

[TheBloatedFish]

Whats wrong with the definition of toastie the picture should be pretty self-explanitory anyway.Plus this thread is about which is superior not what do you call a toasted cheese sandwhich.

[Conny!]

Then what is it called when i put a cheese sandwich in my sandwich press?

[jambo]

This thread makes me hungry (and not the country).

I had a toasted sandwich for lunch today. 'twas filled with 2 cheeses and smoked ham.

[MADCAT]

[latino-oz]

[TheBloatedFish]

It's called a jaffle not a toastie, and they're great with spaghetti from a tin. Cheese on toast is better with Tomato and Ham, using a good tasty cheese. If it's just cheese use that Kraft single stuff that bubbles up because that tastes nicer. Don't bother making a jaffle with just cheese because you need to make it with spaghetti from Heinz.
