Doesn’t matter.
Make me a sammich, woman.
Mayo’s good on some things, Miracle Whip® is good on others. Mayo would have been better on my sandwich this morning. Miracle Whip is good with avocados because it’s sweet tangyness balances the heavy fattiness of the fruit. Miracle Whip is also good on sliced pressed beef sandwiches if you make them with toast (but those are better with mayo if the bread is untoasted). Mayo on burgers and in tuna salad, ham salad, and chicken salad. Miracle Whip in Spam® salad sandwiches and on cold, canned asparagus. (Fresh asparagus is best eaten hot. It’s also good with a nice freshly-made alfredo sauce made with less than the normal amount of parmasan.)
I never did get my chicken breast.
Did ya get a portobello?
I also use both Miracle Whip and Best Foods mayo.
M/W, mixed with relish, makes a passable substitute for tartar sauce.
And in potato salad, with some good mustard.
Peace,

I think samarm was looking for the mushroom. I only get them when I make capellini al fredo con funghi. (Although Trader Joe’s does have some baked in sandwiches and things, and I get those from time to time.)
I do the mayo-end-relish thing for tartar sauce, although I usually eat my fish without. The mayo-and-relish tastes better than the store-bought kind.
Damn, Johnny, when are you gonna just get your ass up there? You can always get a job tossing fish around at Pike Place Market. Or something.
I’ll be going up there for a few days in a month or so.
Peace,
mangeorge
I had another one of these sandwiches a few minutes ago.
Two slices of Milton’s Multi-Grain bread: 260 Calories.
Two slices provolone: 200 Calories.
A little mayonaise: 100 Calories.
A half-teaspoon of French’s Spicy Brown Mustard: 25 Calories.
That’s 485 Calories – plus whatever is in the two Romaine lettuce hearts, six slices of Roma tomatoes, and a few rings of red oinion.
:eek:
That’s like a McDonalds Double Cheeseburger or a Filet-O-Fish!
Correction: 585 plus the salad.
*Scene: qts’s place. qts eating avocados at kitchen table.
Knock on door; qts gets up and answers it. Two burly uniformed officers enter.*
Burly Uniformed Officer #1: “Sir, we’re officers with the Federal Language and Liberty Patrol. We have a report of, well, unpatriotic language having been used recently here.”
qts: “Huh?”
Burly Uniformed Officer #2: Now, we want to make it clear that no offence has been committed, and we have complete respect for your First Amendment rights. At the same time, these are perilous times, and the Federal government believes all citizens should be pulling together, especially in our choice of words."
qts: “Excuse me?”
Burly Uniformed Officer #1: “Using certain phrases in our everyday speech, well, there may not be anything technically illegal, but still, it may spread fear and despondency. So, in accordance with House Resolution # 2003-375, we would like to ask you, sir, in full recognition of your constitutional rights, to consider not using such language.”
qts: “What the frick-frack are you guys talking about???”
Burly Uniformed Officer #2: " ‘French salad dressing.’ Americans using that phrase just bring a warm glow to Jacques Chirac’s heart."
Burly Uniformed Officer #1: "The approved federal patriotic term is ‘Freedom salad dressing.’ Or, if you prefer alliteration, ‘democractic dressing.’ After all, this is a bipartisan concern.
Burly Uniformed Officer #2: And anyway, shouldn’t you be using a real American salad dressing, like Ranch or 1000 Islands?"
qts: “That’s it?”
Burly Uniformed Officer #1: “That’s all. Have a nice day, sir.”
Burly Uniformed Officers exit. qts shakes his head, sits down at the table, and defiantly slathers his avocdos with French dressing, while humming “Sweet land of liberty.”
