Sammiches

[Leslie]

Do you prefer butter/margarine/grease of any kind on your sammiches? Or would you rather have 'em butterless?

[Professur]

Well, it's entirely dependant on the sammich, ain't it? A jam sammich doesn't need it. Meats do.

[Nixy]

UGH no butter/margarine!!

Mayo on meat sandwiches...nothing on PB sandwiches other than PB.

[BeardofPants]

Yep. Gots to have the butter on the sammich. Well, generally. Some don't need it like PB & J.

[Gato_Solo]

The only sandwich requiring butter is grilled cheese. Otherwise, I'm with the GAK crowd. ;)

[unclehobart]

I tend to avoid butter/oily additive agents unless the bread is dry, dry, dry.

[Aunty Em]

Bread? I've forgotten what it looks like... rye crispbread deffinately needs it with most things.

[Nixy]

The only sandwich requiring butter is grilled cheese. Otherwise, I'm with the GAK crowd. ;)

And even then it's on the outside not the inside...

[simplyred]

I don't think I've ever know anyone who put butter on a sandwich except a grilled cheese. I usually use Miracle Whip and sometimes (though very rarely) mustard. Unless It's a PBJ, then just PBJ.

[rrfield]

blech. Now, that fancy mustard, that's good stuff.

I like
that fancy mustard. You could put that fancy mustard on a shoe and it would taste pretty good to me.

[paul_valaru]

all this makes me want to finally make the canadian pwnwich

but I am scared

very scared

same here.


mustard on everything but PBJ.

[woodman19_99]

Let's see... no butter on any sammich but the grilled cheese...

Mustard on turkey sammiches, mayo on roast beast, crandberry sauce and gravy on turkey sammiches... that's how I take my sammiches...

[rrfield]

sammiches are beautiful
sammiches are fine
i like sammiches
i eat them all the time
i eat them for my supper
and i eat them for my lunch
if i had 100 sammiches
i'd eat them all at once!

[Professur]

Very arts fartsy.

[woodman19_99]

more fartsy than artsy...

[Leslie]

Backstory is...I can't eat a sammich (or pretty much anything else for that matter) without butter. It's too dry or somethin. Mustard without butter as a protective layer goes in the breadholes and loses half it's flavour, mayo disappears into the bread too. Bleach.

Someone told me that I'm weird. I agreed that maybe I am, but not about this. So I had to see. And I'm vindicated. I'm not in the majority, but I ain't weird!

[MrBishop]

Butter on the odd sammich, but the majority of the time... either mustard (Dijon) or mayo. :)

Regardless of these poll results, I am sure we will still think of you as weird...

[Leslie]

ok, but so long as it's not cause I butter my sammiches :laugh:

[A.B.Normal]

Butter is not a neccessity ,but I'll use it if I have any warm enough to spread.I don't eat a lot of sandwiches so the butter I have is in the fridge for use with popcorn.If I have turkey (christmas ,birthday),then I'll make sure I have butter to go with my turkey and mayo sandwiches.Mustard is for ham or roast beast ,not that I eat much of that .

[HomeLAN]

And even then it's on the outside not the inside...

Not if you wanna do it right.....

[Inkara1]

See, for me, the point of mayo on a sammich is to 1) add flavor, and 2) moisten things up.

That's the reason I put butter on my sammies. It's too dry otherwise. You need that oily layer to hold the flavours in. But then, most of my sammiches are made of spreads like jam, or marmite, rather than condiments. With the exception of the tomato sammich, if I'm making a sammie with salad ingredients, there's no butter needed.

you eat marmite, you don't count.

:D

[Professur]

:D


fuck you too.

[TexasRaceLady]

I'm definately in the no butter crowd. However, I did eat roast beef sammiches in England with butter and loved them.

Except for turkey which gets only mayo, all my sammiches have both mustard and mayo.

[BeardofPants]

What kind of commonwealth country do you belong to? :P

the one without marmite, except the small part where Prof lives I guess

(honeslty I have never tried it, but I have heard some interesting descriptions.)

[SouthernN'Proud]

No butter unless it's grilled cheese.

PB&J or PB&B notwithstanding, I require mustard on all sammiches. Mayo occasionally, never both.

Favorite homemade sammich is cajun roast beef and salami with colby, lettuce, tomato, onion and mustard.

[rrfield]

One sammich I will skip the mustard on and use mayo is a portabello mushroom sammich. yum!

[woodman19_99]

SN'P, that sandwich sounds damn good, but what the heck is colby? Cheese? Also, could do without tomato, but I may have to find some cajun roast beef, or whatever passes as that in NYC, as I am sure it can't compare to what you guys have down there...

[Leslie]

Colby is a cheese, yes. It's not my favourite, but it's ok.

I like just plain tomato sammiches. Fresh bread, butter, tomato, salt, pepper, done. mmmmm

[SouthernN'Proud]

Ain't nothing like a t'mater biscuit. Hot, homemade biscuit with a slice of (preferably Grainger County TN) t'mater and some salt.

[Winky]

Les, ya ain't never gonna fill out that werld
famous tushy eating like that!!!!

[Leslie]

If all the butter, bread, pasta, cheese, and snacks I eat won't do it then I'm definitely doomed.

[Slim Pickens]

The only sandwich requiring butter is grilled cheese. Otherwise, I'm with the GAK crowd. ;)

:wstupid:

[Leslie]

I will go without eating most of the time if there's no butter for the sammiches.

[BeardofPants]

Now Les, just to demonstrate that you are in fact the perfect woman, the tomato sammich : white bread or brown?

[Leslie]

It's brown. Fresh, brown.

White will do, but it's like...gummier or somethin'.

[Leslie]

Tomato on cracked wheat is good too!

[BeardofPants]

Oh, you are lost. :( It's gotta be white sourdough.

[Winky]

Les, is in fact the perfect woman


I'd agree with that!

[Leslie]

:eyemouth:

I am deeply sorry about the brown bread. I just feel like the sourdough overkills the tomato :(

[Inkara1]

Colby is a cheese, yes. It's not my favourite, but it's ok.

The local Food 4 LEss stores around here sell a cheese that is part Colby and part Jack. It's called -- are you ready for this? -- Co-Jack. :D

[simplyred]

Oh, you are lost. :( It's gotta be white sourdough.

Hear hear! I agree with Les that it makes it gummier with plain ole white, but white sourdough is YUMMY!!!

[Aunty Em]

Now Les, just to demonstrate that you are in fact the perfect woman, the tomato sammich : white bread or brown?
thick cut crusty white bread....

drool

[simplyred]

Okay Les, I have to admit...I too thought the idea of butter on a sammi was a bit off, but I just tried it on my PB&J on wheat and you're are right, the flavor was better. It also didn't stick to the roof of my mouth.

[A.B.Normal]

Peanut BUTTER ,see it already has butter in the name ,why add it :hmm: *handonhip

[simplyred]

Peanut BUTTER ,see it already has butter in the name ,why add it :hmm: *handonhip

Well, like she said, it kinda trapped in the flavor??? I don't know...I really didn't get it reading it. That is why I tried it. Now it makes sense, and it was good.

[BeardofPants]

See with the PB & J you either gotta butter, or use the peanut butter on both sides of the bread otherwise the jam seeps into the bread and tastes all blergh.

[paul_valaru]

oh great, now they are being converted to the butter cause

Would you two get a room or sumthin'?

[Leslie]

Peanut BUTTER ,see it already has butter in the name ,why add it :hmm: *handonhipIf it was really butter, they wouldn't be adding the disclaimer "Peanut", now would they? :P

Peanut butter is MOCK butter, and does NOT count.

that is what I said, butter ruins a good ol PB and banana sammich, unless of course you put it on the outside cause you are gonna grill it

[Gonz]

I don't much care for catsup/ketchup except on scrambled eggs...but, in general, folks like it on about anything

ketchup on his salami sammichs

Shoot him now. That is a crime in 16 states & Nova Scotia.

The apple butter folks will be along shortly to break your knee caps. Try to not scream too loud. It disturbs the neighbours.

[Leslie]

:headbang:

Or just butter the jam side. :)

I admit to having eaten buttered pb sammiches in the past... the reason I stopped buttering was cos of too much fat... but it does taste really good with real butter.... :licklips:

[HomeLAN]

The apple butter folks will be along shortly to break your knee caps. Try to not scream too loud. It disturbs the neighbours.

You ever met the apple butter folks down here? Scream just as loud as you want. Ain't nobody gonna hear you waaaay out here....

[Aunty Em]

What is apple butter?

Am I gonna regret asking?

[woodman19_99]

I think apple butter, has, um, apples in it. I am guessing not actual chunks but infused with the flavor somehow... I really don't have a clue, just trying to be a smartass...:nerd:

[Professur]

What is apple butter?

Am I gonna regret asking?


Condensed apple sauce. (I'm so gonna get killed for that)

[Leslie]

That's really what it is. It's yummy, but it's really just like applesauce cooked WAY too long.

[SouthernN'Proud]

Condensed apple sauce. (I'm so gonna get killed for that)

Y'all 'scuse me while I kill me a Canuck...



Apple butter is nirvana. It is ambrosia, food of the Gods. It is life itself. Put some on your forehead and your tongue will beat your brains out trying to get to it.


ketchup is for french fries only, not hamburgers not hot dogs, just french fries

You forgot onion rings, tater tots, hashbrowns, and frog legs.

You may wish to join a certain Canadian lass in the looney line.

[rrfield]

... I don't like apples

i like apple sauce, apple butter, apple pie, cooked apples, and apple records, but I can't stand eating a plain apple.

[BeardofPants]

Wot is an "apple record"? :confused:

[Inkara1]

Apple Records is the Beatles' label.

[rrfield]

thats the ticket. to ride.

[Inkara1]

But she don't care.

[BeardofPants]

Oh fer gawds sake. Apple Corp. Duh. I was tryin' to think of a food group. :wstupid:

Infidel!!! Slim...by Fleet order 68-9237, butter is not allowed on anything resembling a sammich except the outside of grilled cheese. Is that true?

[Leslie]

No! It's a lie! INFIDEL!

[Professur]

Ok, both sides are calling the other infidel. That always works out well.

[BeardofPants]

But... but... we didn't even start the pissing contest yet. :mope:
