1 sandwich (120 g) has about 410 calories.
Why estimates miss: Grilled Cheese Sandwich is a multi-ingredient dish. The butter griddled onto both bread faces is where most of the fat hides. Generic calorie apps undercount the hidden oil, sauce and portion — CalDesk AI's photo estimate is tuned to catch exactly this.
