I think I mentioned this in another thread (about inventions, IIRC): cheese, marmite and treacle. ---

Peanut butter, mayo, and tabasco sauce. I usually have it on a tortilla. ---

Peanut butter and Mayonnaise, it is. I just ate one to celebrate this thread. First one I’ve had in a year or so. Must do this more often. However, the pot of Russian borsch is calling to me. I’m ready, I have the marrow bones simmered, the beef meltingly tender and special Lebni yoghurt to float in it. ---

My current favorite is peanut butter with two Eggo waffles as the bread(flavored waffles, like strawberry or banana bread), but compared to some of these mine doesn’t seem all that weird. 🙂 ---

I am highly allergic to peanut butter - although I don’t think I knew that as a child; I would always refuse PB sandwiches, and was often offered MUSTARD SANDWICHES as an alternative. Yep, that would be bread and mustard. My 8 year old boy loves peanut butter/banana sandwiches. Viva Las Vegas… ---

Another vote for the peanut butter and butter. I ate those all the time as a kid. Also, American cheese, Miracle Whip, and pickle relish. ---

I eat macaroni and cheese sandwiches on bagels or rye bread. ---

I love fish finger sandwiches. I put three fish fingers on a slice of white bread with mayo, mustard, tomato, and cheese, on white bread. If I’m in the mood, I’ll put a squirt of lemon juice on it as well. I also like to make tuna salad with mayo, onions, green peppers, tomato, cucumber, salt and pepper and a bit of mustard. I finish this with a slice of cheese. For some reason, this sandwich is considered strange in my house and by many of my friends, but I really don’t see anything wierd about that one! Oh yes, and I really do like Vegemite and cheese sandwiches. ---

Ham, mashed potato, mustard and red cabbage (cooked). Can’t beat a leftovers sarnie! ---

It’s not very weird at all. Tell him to try it without the refrigeration or the bread. All that peanut butter stuff is mad though. ---

I eat peanut butter with butter occasionally. I also eat peanut butter, banana, and bacon sandwiches. You can have peanut butter with most things as long as you call the sandwich “satay”. ---

When working in the UK, there used to be a snack shop in our office block where the owner would make the strangest combinations for sandwiches. My Favorite: Boiled Ham Beetroot Slice of Fresh Pear Stilton In a Pita ---

Just plain mayonnaise on white bread. Lots of mayo. White bread, mayo, banana slices and hammered up peanuts, not peanut butter. White bread, lots of mayo, 1/4" thick slices of fresh tomatoes. BLT’s with lots of mayo. White bread, cottage cheese, banana peppers, tomato slices, lots of ground black pepper. ---

My mother ate EVERY sandwhich smothered in butter. Bologna, tuna, peanut butter. No wonder she is the size of a house! ---

My mother once gave my dad a sandwhich and he said “what there is nothing on it” She said it was a “jammed sandwhich” 2 pieces of bread jammed together. I guess that’s what he gets for complaining about her meal making skills. ---

You can always go for a bread sandwich: three slices of bread. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/weird-sandwiches-i-have-known/191552.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/weird-sandwiches-i-have-known/191552.md?page=3)
