    I’ve read that using mayo is something that people do. To me it’s complete psychopathic behavior.

    Plenty use it but I didn’t care for it.

    It depends on the quality of the mayo. The original Japanese version of Kewpie mayo, heck yeah! Best Foods mayo? Barf. Of course butter gives a grilled cheese part of its classic flavor, so I’ll take good butter over great mayo any day.

    Definitely, especially if it is homemade and contains different herbs and spices!

    I use it primarily, because of spreadability and convenience. It has a nice tanginess, and it doesn’t get absorbed by the bread. Its lighter and brings out the breads texture and the flavor of the cheese. Might try butter again if i have some on hand that’s not too cold and unspreadable.

    Mayo on the outside for a lovely bitter crust is what I’ve seen top chefs do on tv. Inside is a bit much.

    Nah…for me butter is where it’s at, making a GC with mayo always tasted like it’s trying to get into the NBA and it’s pretty good at 3 pointers but it’s 5 ft tall

  8. My boyfriend does. I thought the whole idea was weird, and I don’t really care for mayo. To my surprise, grilled cheese made this way is delicious.

    I use both. Idk if some of the replies are digging into purist ideology but I don’t think it matters in this case.

    Butter is great. But I often don’t have enough softened and it is a bit greasier.

    Mayo is easily spreadable and lighter while not really impacting flavor in a negative way.

    Lmao I used both in college to fill me up quick. And yes I felt like a fatass but I thought it was delicious

    I should say I’m like…180lbs so this fat meal was what I looked forward to back in the day

    Yup. Wife showed me and I prefers it over butter on my grilled cheese.
