I am sorry. If I grill a chicken, I can’t wait for the bread. I am gonna tear the meat off the bones and eat it immediately. :D:D  
However, left-over chicken and a butter sandwich sounds delicious!

Yeh, I usually eat those from the leftovers the next day.

I wasn’t sure if it was a thing anywhere (I’m from Michigan too). My mom used to make them for me when I was a little kid, and I haven’t stopped devouring them.

Understand. It is kind of like chile cooked for supper and the next day It Just Tastes Better for some reason. I used to eat it for breakfast the next day after it has been in the fridge overnight.

^ Oh, well since you mentioned breakfast: a cold slice of pizza (or two) with a HUGE glass of chocolate milk is really the breakfast of champions.

Just about anything with tomatoes in it is better the next day, IME. Can’t explain it.

Is scooping sour cream out of the container with a plain corn chip and then down the hatch considered weird? Probably not.

Yup they are Mikes & Ike’s Hot Tamale candies. The are rather soft cinnamon candy and they get melty and delicious in hot popcorn (and slathered with hot butter).

It’s an exquisite combo.

Or a pint of Ben & Jerry’s Chunky Monkey. Hey, it has bananas in it!

Is that ON the pizza, INSTEAD OF the pizza, INSTEAD OF the choco milk, or (oh, yeah) the whole shebang? 'Cause I’m down for any combo of the above.

Maybe made into a shake to accompany the pizza. We need a breakfast sommelier to recommend a pairing.

French’s has a new BBQ mustard that I am looking forward to trying in my beans!! Brown sugar, hickory smoke flavor, apple cider vinegar, mustard. Mmmm. I think they’re calling it “Sweet and Twangy BBQ.”

I like mustard on my potato chips, too. I’ll have to try BBQ mustard on them, now!

You take that back!! It’s NOT gross, it’s wonderful! :mad: 😛

Try it with either salt and vinegar chips, or dill pickle chips!  
I like peanut butter and lettuce sandwiches on toast. Sometimes a light sprinkling of salt on the lettuce, but that depends on my mood.

I recently made some watermelon rind pickles. Out of the five people who tried them, one loved them (me, of course) one thinks they’re pretty good, and the other three are concerned about our mental state.
