Kids Vs. Science: Making The Greatest Grilled Cheese
The grilled cheese: simple, gooey, delicious. A cheesemonger, a food scientist, and a seasoned chef will attempt to create the ultimate version of this classic sandwich. Their competition? Three hilarious kids. Who will win?
Kids Vs. Science is a new show from Mental Floss where we assemble a team of experts to take on a simple childhood activity, and of course, put them head-to-head against a group of kids. Will the superteam of professionals be able to pool their knowledge together to make something extraordinary, or will the living balls of energy that are human children take the crown?
In this episode, the two teams will take on a culinary classic: the grilled cheese. Will they stick with a familiar recipe, or try to wow the taste buds with something new and creative? May the best team win.

cutting cheese isn't so much a skill as it is a necessity for life
Kids vs Science: Model Cars or Boats
3 slices American processed "cheese" product (I prefer Kraft myself)
Butter
Garlic salt
2 slices cheap white sandwich bread
If I have to explain how to put it all together then you don't deserve this grilled cheese sandwich!
This is about grilled cheese SANDWICHES.
Based on two episodes, I have a feeling every episode will be biased towards showing the adults discussing and using their knowledge, compared to kids just screeching and slapping shit together with guesswork, and the kids winning because no one can dare to let the kids lose to people vastly more knowledgeable than them.
But if it has tomato on it, it's a melt, not a grilled cheese. See the post on /r/grillledcheese about why: https://old.reddit.com/r/grilledcheese/comments/2or1p3/you_people_make_me_sick/
So she's an expert at cutting cheese…..
Mayo instead of butter? Gross.
Yes I have tried it. It burned to easily, was greasier than butter, and tasted weird.

"It's whole wheat" omg
I love it when little kids use the phrase "my whole entire life!"…???….the adults ruined a classic simple perfect treat….go kids, you dont need fancy words and degrees, KIDS RULE adults drool.
This was super fun, please continue this series
yes Sean rocking the Phillies cap ??
cheese lady
High acid means low ph. She has no idea what’s going on.
If it didn't come from a briefcase type toaster, it probably sucks.
Would the kids have lost really? In the world we love in today…. not a chance.
The competition was grilled cheese. Not hot sandwich… respect the game
If you pronounce Gou-da as Goe-da, it's not because you are non-pretentious – it's because… Americanese 😉
Grilled cheese is boring/bland af lol need ketchup/siracha
I love this show!
The results were rigged.
Eyy it’s the best level 3 chef! He grows his own cows for cheese
I do not like cheese but i do like this video
"It's whole wheat…"
