Of course. The toast was on top of the cheese was it?

Toast. The cheese was in the middle. I keep telling you that.

I told myself not to get involved with this madness. 'Don't do it' I said. But the evil machinations of Ralph's culinary vocabulary are just too fascinatingly perplexing.
I can't picture this. Are you saying one piece of toast? Folded over with cheese inside?

Or is this a toast, cheese, toast situation?

If you have two bits of toast but just put unmelted cheese between them...that is not a toastie. That is toast on cheese.

Ah right. Now we have defined the status of the cheese. No, that is not a toastie. It's...
Well it's weird for a start but I concede in this situation there is indeed toast on cheese.
But also under cheese.
Toast under and on cheese?
Cheese between toasts, perhaps.
I went to a cafe for lunch today. If I'd asked for that I would have got a Paddington Bear hard stare I think. As it was, the waitress had no idea what was going on. The menu said 'ask for sandwich fillings'. I asked. The reply was, "I'm not sure." Bit of a stalemate there. I don't think it was a cafe used to having customers.

It's only a toastie if it has come from the toastie machine.

That is toast on cheese. -Ralph Technically a toast>Cheese>toast setup would be adding a slice of toast on top of Cheese on Toast. So I'd have said it was Toast on Cheese on Toast. Toast on cheese would be Cheese>Toast and I would have thought that the cheese would melt and drip through the grill onto the grill pan rather than adhering to the toast above it.... Karl |

In the world of Ralph on implies under.
And yes, Cheese on Toast is an open sandwich of one piece of toast with cheese melted on top.
Unmelted cheese between two pieces of toast is a toasted cheese sandwich, surely?

A toasted cheese sandwich is melted cheese in bread.

A toasted cheese sandwich is melted cheese in bread. -Ralph I am now intrigued to know how the cheese is melted (or 'toasted') and transferred to the bread? |

A sandwich can be pre-toasted! So of course it can be cold!

If I ordered a toasted sandwich (= toastie) in a cafe and the filling was cold, I would complain.
