Local versions?

I live in western Canada and to everyone I know here a "cheese dream" is a buttered slice of bread topped with a Kraft singles slice of processed cheese, salt and pepper, then placed under a broiler until the cheese is deep brown and bubbly. Bacon or tomato is sometimes, but rarely, added. Just wondering if this is a local or more widely known variant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.207.64.148 (talk) 10:53, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

Is this a joke?

Serious question. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.198.242.104 (talk) 12:48, 14 October 2019 (UTC)

Why would it be? --King Starscream (talk) 14:22, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
@King Starscream Well for one, in the featured image it is clearly burnt. 66.169.54.35 (talk) 22:28, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Disambiguation, other subject with the same name

I was completely unaware of this being a sandwich until I came upon this page. I've live my whole life in America and never heard of it. The thing I've always heard of referred to as a cheese dream is a purported phenomenon where eating certain types of cheese have an effect on dreams, like making them more vivid, unusual, or scary than normal. This is theoretically linked to either the tryptophan or B vitamins that many cheese contain, or potential psychoactive compounds produced by the mold in some types of cheese. It might be better to name the article I was looking for "Effects of cheese on dreams" or something, and have a disambiguation link on this page for that. --King Starscream (talk) 14:21, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Perhaps English origin, not American?

I'm not sure why this has it's own article when it is not distinct from cheese on toast (maybe you could claim it is a regional variant, but even that is stretching it.)

Don't get me wrong, this article is insane and I love it. I ended up on it today because I had to show my partner (an American) what Americans think cheese on toast should be. Derifity (talk) 15:13, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

Open faced? Combine articles?

This article has a grilled cheese sandwich being referred to as a Cheese Dream in 1916: https://columbiametro.com/article/living-the-cheese-dream/. This article from 1908 has a grilled cheese sandwhich referred to as Cheese Dreams: https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85066387/1908-08-23/ed-1/seq-13/

However, this one states it's open-faced: https://www.sandwichtribunal.com/2020/09/i-dream-of-cheeses/

Honestly I don't see why we need separate articles for cheese on toast, grilled cheese. They're all basically the same thing. Tengu99 (talk) 05:18, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
