For me, it's baby swiss. My secret sauce is honey mustard squirted on one of the bread slices for a little kick.

A grilled cheese consists of only these following items. Cheese. Bread with spread (usually butter). This entire board consist of "melts". Almost every "grilled cheese" sandwich i see on here has other items added to it. The fact that this thread is called "grilledcheese" is nothing short of utter blasphemy. Let me start out by saying I have nothing against melts, I just hate their association with sandwiches that are not grilled cheeses. Adding cheese to your tuna sandwich? It's called a Tuna melt. Totally different. Want to add bacon and some pretentious bread crumbs with spinach? I don't know what the hell you'd call that but it's not a grilled cheese. I would be more than willing to wager I've eaten more grilled cheeses in my 43 years than any of you had in your entire lives. I have one almost everyday and sometimes more than just one sandwich. Want to personalize your grilled cheese? Use a mix of different cheeses or use sourdough or french bread. But if you want to add some pulled pork and take a picture of it, make your own thread entitled "melts" because that is not a fucking grilled cheese. I'm not a religious man nor am I anything close to a culinary expert. But as a bland white mid-western male I am honestly the most passionate person when it comes to grilled cheese and mac & cheese. All of you foodies stay the hell away from our grilled cheeses and stop associating your sandwich melts with them. Yet again, it is utter blasphemy and it rocks me to the core of my pale being. Shit, I stopped lurking after 3 years and made this reply for the sole purpose of posting this. I've seen post after post of peoples "grilled cheeses" all over 4chan and it's been driving me insane. The moment i saw this thread this morning I finally snapped.

You god damn heretics. Respect the grilled cheese and stop changing it into whatever you like and love it for it what it is. Or make your damn melt sandwich and call it for what it is. A melt.

That works. It's not plastic. It's emulsified cheddar and milk. It's made to taste good on things and be melty

Grilled cheese is the only use for the yellow "American" cheese, IMO. Using that garbage in any other fashion makes want to gag, but on a grilled cheese it takes on a decent flavor.

God no. Processed cheese product of any form is never the right choice. There are plenty of real cheeses that melt well.

Head cheese. Image failed because they didn't grill it, and google fails for providing no good image results.

it does not taste good though. its melting qualities are admirable but it really does not taste good. it doesn't taste bad either, it just doesn't taste like anything.
i remember because as a kid being subjected to american cartoons and tv-shows i excitedly sought this out in the supermarket multiple times and i got different brands and it always tasted horribly disappointing. it just tastes like nothing. i'm sorry. i'm not saying it's fake cheese. i acknowledge it's great at melting. but its flavor is just pathetic.

To me it has a distinct flavor, just not a strong one. It tastes like salty milk. Salty milk is how I'd call the flavor.

Now, this is very different to the kind places like McDonalds use, which for all intents and purposes, is labeled just the same as your store bought kind, but it has a uniquely sharper and more tangy flavor, some have dubbed it "lemon cheese".
