I think a toastie and a panini are very similar, but a panini typically uses a stiffer bread and the toastie is kind of sealed on the sides. A grilled cheese (US) is typically a cheese sandwich toasted in a pan, so kind of somewhere in between a toastie and a panini
I can get behind these rules to be honest. I think panini would be a ciabatta or something like that.
I hadn’t realised that the American grilled cheese was basically a sandwich toasted and you’re quite right to point out toasties are sealed all around.
I wonder do Americans eat toasties. I’m reluctant to assume your country of origin.

It’s 100% based on the bread. If I ask for a ham and cheese panini and get a regular toastie I’m gonna be upset

If we do we don’t call em that, what makes a toastie?
