I m sure the fourth Earl would be much happier if they were serving ham and cheese, turkey, and peanut butter and Marmite rather than a bunch of frou-frou sandwiches. Not that creative sandwich-making isn t a good idea. After all, we each have a favorite sandwich which others think is strange. I have a friend who to this day eats peanut butter with potato chips and mayonnaise and I can t be in the same room when he does it. Granted it was on a British baguette and didn t have the gravy, but it was close enough for me to give thanks and buy one to eat on the train.
Some people think that tossing anything between two slices of bread makes it a sandwich.
Technically it does, but that doesn t make it a good idea. Mayonnaise and tomato, maybe. When we were growing up my father would put just about anything on a sandwich. He d make sure my mother saved every conceivable leftover because it will be good on a sandwich. There would be more dolphins because we d eat less tuna.
