sandwich questions..

1) Do you think sandwiches taste nicer when somebody else makes them?!

Now I'm not talking about, say, one of your mates using a nicer type of bread or something. I'm on about, for example, if your mother (cue loads of stupid "your ma" comments!!) made you some ham sandwiches out of the same food items (brands included) that you would have used yourself, if you had to have made the ham sandwiches yourself.

2) Do you prefer triangular shaped sandwiches over rectangular shaped ones?!

I'm not sure why this is in my case! I think it might be because I always got rectangular ones for my lunch throughout school and, hence, triangular ones are more exotic! Or maybe its an optical illusion and they appear bigger?

3) Do any of you's eat "sauce sandwiches"?

That is, 2 slices of bread buttered and then red sauce (or brown or whatever you like!) put in between with nothing else. I think its dead nice!

They're always nicer when made by someone else. I'm a krap sandwich maker..

1. My mother generally puts the sandwich together better.

2. Triangular hold the content better, if it's a really big sambo.

3. No, that's disgusting!

I have never made a sandwich so I have no basis for comparison.

InkSlinger67 · 29-12-2008 01:28AM

I response to your "sauce only" comment - I love Salad Cream sandwiches! Would eat them and them alone for the rest of my life easily! Salad Cream is THE king of sauce!

Sauce sandwhiches are awesome. End of!

Holsten · 29-12-2008 01:30AM

The best sandwiches I have are the ones I make myself.

Yes they're better in triangular form.

And unless it's a chip sambo, no... no sauce other than mayo.

Shacklebolt · 29-12-2008 01:30AM

It is simply a bizarre fact of life that triangular sandwiches are better than square. Nobody knows why.

Whats everybodys favourite type of sandwich? Chicken for me or else cheese and crisp.

Brown Sauce FTW

If the sauce is so nice what purpose does the bread serve?

Not really a big fan tbh. I made a burger once tho. Would that count for the purpose of this survey?

Sauce sandwiches are nothing without hot freshly cooked rashers.. mmmm

No, that's a different thing entirely. Unless you cut it into triangles.

antodeco · 29-12-2008 01:35AM

Funnily enough, sauce was only created to hide the taste of rotting food back in the olden days! The food was still edible, but tasted rank, so they masked their food with various concoctions (mainly based around vinegar).

Keeps the sauce from outside your lips!

I've never had a sauce sandwich but sugar sandwiches are amazing.

Aye, used to love them till I got to about 12 years old!! Now I wouldnt try it!

Ross_Mahon · 29-12-2008 01:43AM

1. Other persons hands are not magic? If you make it yourself, You will probably appreciate it more.

2. I'll eat a sandwich uncut thank you, I don't know what is with all this fancy fine cut triangle nonsense, I just want to eat it? Not make the Triforce from Zelda!

3. I will put brown sauce on a turkey sandwich, Because turkey does not deliver, So i cover the taste up and eat it anyways, I think that's why they put stuffing in turkeys.

An Irish Mammy (tm) always makes better sammiches.

My sammich line up is like this. Made by Mammy > Made by the nice lady in the shop on the corner from me > Made by me > Made by people in Spar and all other people

And with a triangular sammich, you can eat long delicious pointy corners while compressing the contents with your hands so they are nicely formed for when you get to the dense inner contents.

I couldnt quite put my finger on it, but I think that might just be why triangular sandwiches are nicer!!

"Thumbs up"

Banana and sugar sandwiches ftw... mmmm wish I was a kid again!!

Sharpshooter · 29-12-2008 01:51AM

Ploughman's Lunch sambo's are the biz.

Most likely because the pickle used in them bears a close resemblance to HP brown sauce , which I love on a slice of bread and butter, an open slice , though.

Let me tell ya about my Mammy, She used to make the most of the peanut butter left in the jar, Long summers days sitting in primary school, Brown bread sandwich's with no butter and barely any peanut butter spread on it...

I used to be gasping for a drink after it and all we got was these tiny cartons of milk, So i took the leftover milk outside other classrooms

m5ex9oqjawdg2i · 29-12-2008 01:56AM

1) Yes

2) Triangles are best

3) Chocolate, honey or jam sambos, yes... tomato ketchup and mayo sambos? No.

Firetrap · 29-12-2008 01:57AM

Yes, other peoples' sandwiches are nicer. I've no idea why. I sometimes get a sandwich made up for myself in a local shop and it's lovely. Yet when I make up the same one for myself, it's not. I've never been able to put my finger on why when we're both using the same ingredients. Maybe if I paid myself €3

samhail · 29-12-2008 02:37AM

a sandwich you make your self always has that extra bit of satisfaction, i think cos your building up anticipation while your making it.

i had to read your explanation of your own sauce sandwich very carefully. hmmm.

does any one else feel like a sandwich right now ?
