That's why you eat them hot. I never use "American cheese" of any variety in a grilled cheese, I almost always use cheddar, and occasionally throw in some form of jack (Monterey Jack, PepperJack, etc). The trick is to cook it on medium-low heat and cover with a lid so it thoroughly warms the sandwich, if you cook it too hot w/ the lid off, the cheese doesn't heat enough to properly melt.

There's a pretty small window between not burning yourself and it cooling to the point the texture gets weird. I don't like having to eat that fast.

Idk, they stay reasonably warm for like 15 minutes for me, which is plenty of time to enjoy eating it.
