My favourite sandwich has gotta be mayo chicken in a bagel with crunchy lettuce, satisfying in both taste and the crunchy texture of chopped iceberg lettuce from the shops.
Another one would be sausage and egg with some cheeky brown sauce (British lemmy users know what I mean)
What is YOUR favourite sandwich? Fillings or sauces to go with it, maybe your favourite type of bread?

A cheese sandwich. Buttered white bread, a thick slice of salty cheddar, and a layer of English mustard. No nonsense.
BLAT. Bacon, lettuce, avocado, and tomato. Best with a hearty or sweet bread type. My preferred is sweet rye. No condiments needed…just spread the avocado for the texture and added flavor. Husband prefers the bread toasted, but I like it pan fried in butter.
There’s a cafe near me that does a BLAT/americano combo lunch and it’s so good.
Make the avocado into guacamole and you can have an LGBT sandwich
Simple french baguette, roasted ham and provolone with home made mayo and Dijon mustard.
Turkey, sharp cheddar, pepper jack and pepperoni on toasted whole grain bread with spicy brown mustard and just enough hot sauce to add some bite.
I recently had a tandoori chicken salad sandwich that was --god damn…
Anything Indian or Ethiopian put between two slices of bread is absolutely amazing. The next time you order in Indian make a sandwich of some saag, vindaloo, korma, whatever and fucking enjoy.
The classic Ethiopian cuisine is stews served on a giant flatbread, it’s spiritually a sandwich even if it isn’t literally one
Jambon-Beurre!! With some freshly baked warm Ciabatta-esque bread 😍
A sandwich I used to make when I worked at a deli. Pastrami, turkey, and provolone, melted, on a toasted onion roll with coleslaw and Russian dressing.
It’s got to be ham and cheese. No matter where you go, usually two out the three will be excellent, so a good sandwich is easily available
France - Amazing bread, amazing cheese, good ham
Spain - Crap bread, reasonable cheese, world class ham
UK - crap bread, world class cheese, good ham
Germany - world class bread, good cheese, amazing ham
America - bread that has to be called cake in other countries because of the sugar content, homogenised dairy product, and chlorine-washed minced pork-amalgam
Ah shit it was going so well
I suspect this will be a controversial comment
America definitely has good bread and cheese, it’s just that the worst instances of each are particularly terrible
Their regular supermarket bread is way, way too sweet for me, but there are decent bakeries still
The great bakeries are going out of business because everyone shops at Walmart.
Ahem. That chlorine-washed minced amalgam has a name.
…and it comes in a can. Does your amalgam come in a can?
I did see spam once in 1987
But have you enjoyed the culinary delicacy that is TREET?
E: Albeit, I’d be lying if I didn’t suggest that you hold out for our true hero here in the states:
Deli-sliced turkey, muenster cheese, honey mustard, and my home-made pickles, on wheat.
Cuban sandwich. If done correctly, it is a masterpiece.
Chicken shawarma. Simply delicious.
A Dutch delicacy is Ossenworst, a raw lean beef sausage. It’s delicious with diced onions, pickles and a drop of balsamic vinegar and a light coating of remoulade.
I like to put it on a German bread roll.
Like Mett, but with beef?
A bit, it has some spices in it, though, like nutmeg and clove. It’s a bit like filet American préparé, but without the egg.
Interesting. I’ll have to ask for that next time I’m across the pond.
Albert Heijn supermarket has it in stock, usually.
2 weeks ago I said this when someone else asked;
Baguette from our local bakery in Schinnen, they do the original French method. Tick sliced tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, home made mayo (whisked, no stickblender stuff), salt and pepper. Delicious.
Why does a whisk work better than a stick blender?
Better aeration, leading to a fluffier, though not overbeaten, final result.
