Did you grow up in a different region than your husband? Based on my mother and grandmother, I’d bet that ‘Toasted Cheese’ was prevalent in the southwest US in the mid-1900s. Both terms sound right to me.
No, we grew up in the same region of the same state and haven’t moved from there. Most of our friends are native to the region as well. I have no idea why I call it something different, it is the term I have used all my life. Even my sister calls it a ‘grilled cheese’!
