I once was working foodservice, and I pondered all the different types of sammichs we served.

Peanut Butter and Jelly  
Hot Dogs  
and  
Lunchmeat

I thought: What if…

Bread  
Mayonaise  
Mustard  
Ketchup  
Lunchmeat (turkey + salami)  
Peanut butter  
Jelly

That sammich was something to behold. It tasted awesome and completely revolted everyone who saw it. I am King.

For a good part of my life I worked in movie theatres.

Now in the theatres in the Midwest at least, it was common for the concession stand to have these giant dill pickles.

I couldn’t stand them.  
Anyway, one day these two teenage girls come up (14?) and one of them asks if I can put her pickle in a cup and put the ‘butter’ for the popcorn on the pickle.

Her friend and I were aghast. But she convinced her friend to try it and the friend was instantly converted to the butter pickle faith.

But I still like my PB and Bacon.

You can’t believe it? This is the first time I’ve ever heard of another person who does it.

It started when a babysitter wanted to make peanut butter n’ fluffernutter sammiches for her charges. I, being a difficult child, refused to eat marshmallow fluff, and so she substitued with mayo for appearance’s sake.

Jeez. Y’all are late to the party. We discussed that sammich in the MMP a couple of weeks ago. I’d link but I’m too lazy to search for it.

This has me wondering if peanut butter, bacon and vegemite might not make a good sandwich. **QtM** have you tried that?

Personally I only buy the freshly ground peanut butter from the market, no sugar at all so it’s definitely savory, not sweet.

PB and bacon sounds awesome. I can’t wait to gross out my wife.

Anyone here like Lebanon bologna and jelly on toast? Anyone here know what Lebanon bologna is?

Another great combo is ham and Cool Ranch Doritos. Then there’s minced bologna and ketchup.

Man, I can’t believe lunch is an hour and a half away!

Pff. My dad eats peanut butter and _Miracle Whip_ sandwiches. Beyond vile.

Peanut butter and bacon, on the other hand, is the food of the artery-clogged gods. Yum.

I feel a disturbance in the Force…

(Peanut butter and bacon is just _gross_. Grilled cheese, chicken breast, and bacon, with lettuce and mayo, on a white kaiser… heaven. Mmmmmm.)

Why? Do they have good sammiches there? _hopeful_  
There’s a whole group of sammich-sayers here and you can have our sammiches when you pry them from our cold dead sticky fingers. Which won’t take long if we all indulge in peanut butter, bacon and mayo sammiches.

SAMMICH!

My six year old son likes peanut butter and mayo too. He got the idea from a little girl at daycare who brought it every day. I make it for him, but I gag while I’m doing it.

Oh, barfity-barf! That’s my-two-year old-dipping-his-pancakes-in-ketchup degree of barfiness.

Is it Kinsey Millhone (Sue Grafton mysteries) who eats PB and pickle sandwiches? That makes me want to hurl, too, but PB and mayo may be The Most Vile Combo I’ve ever heard likes of.

PB with bananas and honey, OTOH is _divine_ .

That is so disgusting. I mean, come on … _white toast_?!?!!?!?

Now, wheat toast, on the other hand … hmmm, I may have to try that.

Oh, and **Martin** :

SAMMICH!

PB and dill pickle! Yes! (That’s between slices of bread of course, call it what you will.)

You could also try PB, banana, and Seville-orange marmalade.

Peanut butter and sweet pickle chips (or sweet pickled onions), the kind with mustard seed floating around in the brine. Man, that’s good eating!

Lately I’ve been eating BATs: Bacon, Avocado and Tomato sammiches. Ooooh… bacon…
