Most times I prefer the traditional white bread with Kraft American or
Kraft Cheddar sliced cheese, buttered on the outside. On occasion I will
add cooked bacon or a thin slice of tomato inside. I generally don't put
condiments inside the sandwich, although I might dip the outside edge of
the sandwich in mustard as I eat it.
My favorite combination is a grilled cheese sandwich (as above) with a bowl
of cream of tomato soup.
