        When I make a shitpost, I screenshot it instead of exporting, and I make sure to include a couple pixels of some different background color on one or two of the sides for the authentic feel. Sadly, the screenshot program auto hides the cursor, so I can only dream of such greatness.

        Aussie here, I’ve always considered a cheese toasty to be a cheese sandwich that’s been toasted in a jaffle iron. A toasted cheese sandwich, however, would be more similar to a grilled cheese.

        Not sure if this was just the nomenclature used by my family or is in line with what others call them, though.

          Cool, sounds a lot like a grilled cheese overall.

          Way back in the day, when all we had was a space heater, my mom would sometimes crank the oven and then leave the door open. Just another space heater, but in the kitchen.

          Often, before school, she would put a few slices of cheese on bread and then put them on a cookie sheet under the broiler (overhead heating element in an oven, in case that’s not immediately clear). The cheese melts, the top of the bread toasts, and the underside steams a little bit.

          You can eat them in slices, fold them over, or put two melty cheese bread slices together to make a sandwich, which was my favorite. It was one of the only things I knew how to cook for a long while, and I have fond memories of it.

          Problem is that I never really knew what to call it. Mom called it cheese bread, but I never really thought that fit. Given my penchant for making sandwiches out of them, I eventually started calling them baked cheese sandwiches. I was hoping maybe cheese toasty would be the thing, but the search continues.

        See around where i live, we call it a cheese toasty. We had class debates about if its a cheese toasty or a grilled cheese. Most people say a cheese toasty is when you take a pan on a stove or micowave. Then take 2 pieces of bread a sandwitch the cheese in the middle, then “toast it” sometimes including butter on the outside of the bread when using a pan. Grilled cheese is when you grill the sandwitch in the same way as toasting except its grilled.

        Honestly its just kinda a silly little argument between people, i mean its bread with cheese! But its just fun to see what others call things. Very simular to coke/pop/soda debate.
