A Grilled Cheese Toaster Exists For Those Nights When You Just Can’t

Fact: Nothing is greater than a gooey grilled cheese sandwich, except for a gooey grilled cheese sandwich with tomato soup to dip it in. The only problem? Grilled cheese takes some time to make. Sure, it’s not the hardest dish in the world, but it does require some prep and a little bit of patience. Thankfully, a product exists that makes it way easier to get your grilled cheese on. It’s a grilled cheese toaster that makes two sandwiches at once. One for you, one for your BFF. Or just…both for you. We’re not judging!

Created by Nostalgia Products, the toaster — which is currently available on Amazon Prime for just $19.99 — works with both plain or buttered bread, depending on how you like your sandwich. For me, it’s all about butter and I didn’t realize there were other options. But, you do you.

After that, you assemble the cheese. The toaster includes two toasting baskets on the inside that will keep your sandwich in place while simultaneously catching any cheese runoff. Minutes later, your sandwich will be ready and will taste as if you grilled it up yourself. Plus, no pan to clean! Bonus.

The company made an instructional video, which includes the crucial “pulling apart” of the sandwich so that you can see the cheese in its best form. Suddenly I feel the urge to gift this to pretty much everyone this upcoming holiday season.

Your diet might not thank you for buying this, but your stomach will.

That’s probably the one con about this fantastic product — you’re going to need to make a lot of grilled cheeses to justify all that counter space for this thing. But if you’re a mom who needs to whip up a quick lunch for her kids in a pinch, it might end up being one of the most worthwhile purchases you make.
