The history of National Cheese Toast Day began in the second half of the 20th century. Cheese toast is made with just two ingredients: toasted slices of bread and fresh cheese. It was invented by the creator of the Sizzler restaurant in 1958. Shortly thereafter, cheese toast began to be very popular with visitors to the establishment. Over time, various options for snacks appeared: from wheat bread, from rye bread, from French buns.

Every year the recipe has been improved, new ingredients have been added. Cheese toast can be consumed both separately and together with other dishes: soup, salad, fried meat. In 2015, to commemorate the cheese toast that made the restaurant a success, Sizzler USA created a special day for the dish.
