one of my favorite sandwiches is worryingly (atleast according to ryan)a pre-packaged chicken-and-pork-stuffing sandwich.

I don't like fast food sandwiches, but restaurant sandwiches are usually very nice. :]

However the most satisfying sandwiches come from something already described here, ‘sandwich night’ where you go to the store and buy all conceivable sandwich things and build yourself some yummies. Nice crusty bread is a must, a good sandwich is all about the bread. (I prefer sourdough, which England does not do properly.)

If course, if you're just one person, it's difficult to do that because then you have a ton of stuff left over and psychologically, it's not as nice to keep eating the same sandwiches for 4 days.

Seriously guys, Vegemite is where it's at.
You can live off those.

I agree with Skool about bread though. What you need to do is have a good section of different kinds of bread and just have Vegemite on ALL of it! That way you get some variety ;)

Use margarine as a base though, the kind with all the fat, cholesterol, and salt still in it. It's way better than butter or anything else. :P

that's why I often do different meat and cheese combations :)

Vegemite goes great with that too. ;)

At the pizza/restaurant place I work, there was this huge chicken sandwich I had. One of the best I've ever had :)

Ah, they put Vegemite on the chicken, yes? :)

Fav sandwitch…


1. Slice of bread.
2. Slice of something meat-based.
3. Some spicy ketchup.
4. Another slice of bread.

substitute something meat-based with something ELSE meat-based, optionally add some cheese.

Poor man's open sandwitch…

variant 1) Take a single slice of bread, spread butter, sprinkle with salt.
variant 2) As above, but sprinkle generously with sugar.

variant 1a “traditional”) Substitute butter with… not sure the english name, but it's pig-based fat used for frying things… and then add salt.

Anything green in the sandwich? = unedible :P

Lard on a sandwich? o_O

We need to introduce Vegemite to Poland right away! o_o

Lol, sure. Pretty much every small farm has pigs over here, even if they don't have cows. Or used to… anyway, you kill a pig, take the fat melt it on a frying pan, pour it into a jar and once it cools down, stuff it into the freezer/cool spot. And it lasts for months, unlike butter which goes bad in couple of days… there you go, supplies for the winter. You can use it to fry things, you can spread it on the bread (and I agree, alone it tastes terribly, with with salt added it's quite nice).

Also, as for the stuff to put on sandwiches. My aunt had her own unique recipee for pork. I don't know what she did with it exactly (I was a little kid back then) but the final product came from a glass jar. It was always delicious and the top was covered with this jelly (that you can sometimes find in canned meat)… I don't think I ever ate any tastier pork thing before or after that.

For nostalgias sake, a ham sandwich with crusty bread and that weird yellow crumb I scrape off. Or a Marmite and Cream Cheese sandwich. Or chocolate spread and Peanut butter. Sandwiches are good…

Most people seem to be listing a main course in their sandwich!

FINALLY Somebody else who agrees that Marmite is THE SHIT!!! MOTHERFUCKING vegemite is evil… Marmite and chip sandwiches are AWESOME!!! another favourite is motherfucking peanutbutter (Not Kraft… Kraft is the DEVIL) and chip (Salt and vinegar flavour) sandwiches with BUTTER, not margerine!

Lard… I think I can learn to like Vegemite.

Take it from somebody who knows… lard is better than Vegemite!

Marmite is to Vegemite what Robbie Williams and Justin Timberlake are like to REAL rock musicians.

Vegemite is the REAL thing man. It's hardcore.

If you don't like Vegemite, you're just a poser. Nuff said. ;)

My cousin applied Marmite to a sandwich in the same manner as Vegemite-really thickly. He was coughing like hell.

This, I think shows, that Vegemite is for PUNY WEAKLINGS. Only real men handle Marmite!

Nah, that just shows that Marmite isn't real food. Ewwww.

yeah I gotta agree with Ozone here, Marmite sucks, Vegemite is where it's at.
Although I only know (i think) one non-Australian who likes it, and he's Moroccan.

Wow, I thought I'd never see an non-Aussie that likes it! I live in the US and you can't get Vegemite or Marmite here. I've eaten Vegemite only once and I have no idea if I'd like it if I'd try it again. I have no idea about Marmite.
(by the way, anyone notice the Firefox's spell check says that Marmite isn't a word but Vegemite is?)

That's why Firefox is such a high quality browser.

I can feel an almighty MARMITE smack down of biblical proportions coming on… Did you know that there were originally 11 commandments… the final one being Thou shalt not spread Vegemite on thine toast or I shalt kick you upon thine bollocks!!!

…. Marmite? Or Vegemite???

Oh, well… since I can't find either of them here I'll still go with Peanut Butter and Jelly. :)

Or bologne… or however it's spelled.

noone loves homemade chicken salad sandwiches? or tuna sandwiches for that matter? insanity.

mayo, lots of mustard, onions, celery, chopped black olives (only with the chicken salad, though with tuna that doesn't sound so bad now that i think of it..) on toasted sourdough… mmmm….

ifelldownthestairs
tuna sandwiches

At school, they have Tuna sandwiches in the vending machine. I don't think they have moved in 3 years.

So you're saying Marmite is the religious alternative to delicious tasty secular Vegemite?. :)

Nope, a whole chicken breast, french fries, great sauce and few slices of sundried tomatoes :)

You have my condolences :(

VEGEMITE!!!!

Once a buddy of mine, a Kiwi in fact, came to school with a thing of white bread and a jar of Vegemite. The bread was kinda bad, but I really appreciate Vegemite's deliciousness. SO GOOD.

Im vaguely aware of the concept of Vegemite and I never heard of Marmite…but what is exactly?

I'm not sure DP, but I think it involves Satanic rituals or something…?
