The Best Grilled Cheese Sandwich You’ll Ever Eat: And The Japanese Get-up Test

No matter the effort, I could not have my cake and eat it to.

Take two pieces of white bread. Preferably Wonder.

Place them in the toaster.

Unwrap the cheapest cheese slice you can get. Not Kraft — that’s rich people’s food. Think cheaper. Think rubber.

Leave the opened cheese on the counter and get ready.

When the toast is done, place your cheap cheese between the two slices quickly and press. Hard. Bonus points if you can mush the crust together and form a Hotpocket-like seal.

Naked, with no plate or paper towel, throw the entire concoction in the microwave until the cheese is melted.

Plate alongside half a dozen bite-sized Three Musketeers — because variety is important — and call it lunch.

The very same lunch I ate for years, well after I started training.
