Ok, FH settles things as it usually does;

When you have a sammich that is square(ish atleast), do you take the first bite from the corner, or one of the edges?

Not counting your typical english triangle sammiches this time ;)

Never eat sammiches really. Not the 'bread' type really as i opt for warm food. But, if i had to, going for the corner first.

On another note, Raven's been spotted in the area:

Sorry, I thought you genuinely spelled it incorrectly.

I see a lot of kids call it sammich so thought you had picked up the wrong word along the way.

But if calling something by a different name is fun these days then "OK"

How about the peanut-butter variation? Never tried, any good?

Corner too. Bigger first mouthful and less chance of getting mayo (or whatever) all over the sides of your mouth.

I don't care, I just eat it but wherever I hold it that bit doesn't get eaten. Must be the stokey blood in me (miner's used to do it) or it's possibly because I'm a bit strange.

Oh wait, I like to eat the crust first, get that out the way because it's the shittest part of the sarnie.

Make your bread. Balls to shop bought stale in a day crap.

Which is what?

We buy good bread I just don't like the crust on sandwiches. Personal preference.

Most bread on sale in the UK is terrible, especially in supermarkets. Its the only thing about supermarkets in Ireland that's much better than the UK; really, really good bakery sections.

Not a massive fan of normal sandwiches (unless it's Warburton's, I do like Warburton's) as most bread in the UK is too heavy and stodgy. I do make a massive exception for Scottish Morning Rolls however, lovely and fluffy, and go great with some bacon and square sausage. They have started appearing in supermarkets down here too, so that is my usual choice, and being round, they remove the corner debate.

However this is one area that the French have us absolutely smashed - their bread is utterly divine.

I created something I call the Legendary Sandwich... except its not actually a sandwich its more like a toasty and it'll probably make your heart cry in pain and make you die instantly.... but its fucking nice!


3 slices of bread
ham
cheese
ketchup
mayonnaise

toast the bread lightly

first layer is Ham > Ketchup > Cheese

Put 2nd slice of bread on top of the first

second layer is Ham > Mayonnaise > Cheese

put last slice of bread on top of the lot, stick it in the microwave for about 50 seconds (just enough for the cheese to melt) take out and nom - you can prob replace the sauces with other sauces and even the ham with other stuff like garlic sausage etc etc :p you get the idea.

Depends on the sandwij, some freshly made one's require great care, you must approach them at the right angle or the entire contents slide onto the floor with the first bite....yes I'm talkin to you tuna mayonnaise and salad.

I just want to express my disgust at the thought of that horrendous mix.

You have to feed sour dough starter each week with flour. Its a natural yeast sort of thing. And then you use some of it to make the bread rise. Keeping some back to make more starter to make more bread etc etc.
