cheese sandwich

Sliced dairy meal

A cheese sandwich is bread with cheese between the slices—among the simplest of sandwiches.

The cheese may be melted (as in a grilled cheese) or cold.

The term sometimes represents basic, unremarkable fare: The cafeteria offered nothing but cheese sandwiches.

In British slang, cheese sandwich can mean something plain or boring.
