December 17, 201213 yr Okay, just disowned my bro over this one. we got on talking about what we used to eat at home and touched on banana sanwiches. (Which i still luv.) Now as far as I'm concerned there is only one way to eat a 'nana sandwich. You get a slice of bread, squash banana onto it, then fold it over until the banana is oozing out the sides, then you eat it.But my bro says he puts...ugh....sugar on his...puke, vomit...but worse still margarine...aargh! What a wimp; what a culinary crime. Please tell me others don't do this.
December 17, 201213 yr Author Banana and digestive biscuit...........sandwich.That sounds revolting, Malcolm. You must have a cast-iron stomach.
December 17, 201213 yr Butter and sugar are a must!!Speaking of sandwich fillings, did anybody else have jam with everything? My dad took sandwhiches to work at Netherton Colliery. No matter what the filling, he put a layer of jam on it. he said it was too dry to eat otherwise. To this day my favourite sandwhich filling is fried pork sausage with Robertsons thick cut orange marmalade. Cheddar cheese and strawberry jam comes a close second!

December 18, 201213 yr Author To this day my favourite sandwhich filling is fried pork sausage with Robertsons thick cut orange marmalade.Sorry Canny Lass, no matter which way I look at that it just does not seem palatable. (Were you by any chance preggas at the time, cos I heard women have funny culinary tastes during that time.)

December 18, 201213 yr Author My granny in her autumnal days lived on nothing else but jam sandwiches and my mother had a penchant for Tudor crisp sandwiches. Now my bro, in his youth, would put anything between two slices of bread, and I mean anything.

(Were you by any chance preggas at the time, cos I heard women have funny culinary tastes during that time.)Definitely not preggas! I can remember eating these as a toddler. You must try it. It's lovely. One large slice buttered white bread. One fried pork sausage, hot or cold, cut in half length ways and placed on half the bread. Spread a dollop of orange marmelade on the other half and fold over. Enjoy!
December 18, 201213 yr Sausage and Marmalade I can kinda understand, not too far away from pickle and chutney, its the cheese and jam that seemed wrong.

Enjoy!I'm veggie, Canny Lass, but I can try it with a Linda McCartney sausage. Someone has told me he tried a fried banana. UGH!PS, Malcolm, who am I up against on the other site - please enlighten me in a PM if you will. Edited December 18, 201213 yr by keith lockey
January 25, 201313 yr WE WENT TO ALNWICK AND HAD A SANDWIDH AT A PLACE CALLED GRANNY'S KITCHEN. WE HAD A CORONATION CHICKEN AND BANANA SANDWICH BELIEVE IT OR NOT AND IT WAS GORGEOUS. WOULD NEVER HAVE THOUGHT IT WOULD WORK BUT AS I SAY IT WAS SMASHING .
January 25, 201313 yr TALKING ABOUT JAM SANDWICHES KEITH MY DAD WOULD ALSO JUST HAVE JAM SANDWICHES FOR HIS BAIT AS HE SAID IT KEPT YOUR MOUTH MOIST HE ALSO TOOK A BAG OF BLACK BULLETS WITH HIM AS WELL
March 6, 201313 yr Author Moving on from banana sandwiches - how about sliced beetroot sandwiches. You looked like Kathy Kirby when you finished eating them, what with all the red beetroot on your lips. I've just bought a jar at Tescos, Dee Liscious. Where's the microphone....once I had a secret love....
April 2, 201313 yr I have just had a peanut butter and raw onion sandwich, it was surprisingly very nice.

To this day my favourite sandwhich filling is fried pork sausage with Robertsons thick cut orange marmalade. Cheddar cheese and strawberry jam comes a close second!Do not know how anyone can eat a sandwich, regardless of the filling, without butter.Cheddar cheese and strawberry jam, brought up on it, still eat it.As a nipper - Ginger snap sandwich.Sliced cold potatoes.Accidentally started one when first started to work at Blyth Shipyard. Me dad asked me one Sunday night, as he always did the four bates for Monday morning, what do you want in yours? Noticed there was only a couple of tatties left so said - tatties & beef paste = two slices with tatties and two with beef paste. Opened bait box Monday lunch time and bit into my first ever beef paste & cold tattie sandwich. That was it for every Monday for years.
July 28, 201312 yr Caad tetties, chips, crisps or owt left on the dinner plate! there wasn't much of a loaf left after my brother and I had egg'n chips!Hmm!I think I know why I had that heart attack!O.T. Anyone hear from Canny Lass?
August 18, 201312 yr O.T. Anyone hear from Canny Lass? Things are just starting to get back to normal for me Vic after a series of broken arms and ribs. I haven't been able to use a computer for several months. It's still not easy but at least it's possible now.
August 18, 201312 yr Good to see you back Canny Lass! I hope your recovery is getting easier and you're getting more mobile and comfortable, and you soon get back to your old self. Looking forward to your postings, they have been missed!

August 26, 201312 yr My Dad loved jam & bung (cheese) sandwiches ... he said it was an army thing.I still have the occasional banana sandwich with demerera sugar but always between rough-cut brown crusty bread. It's decades since I last had white sliced bread (I would have been a poor student in London) but fondly remember chip sandwiches. But nothing beats white Cheshire cheese with a dollop of Gentleman's Relish* smeared over it, then held in place between thickly buttered crusty brown bread. Yum!* Gentleman's Relish is a type of chutney and not some iffy Victorian sex game. Edited August 26, 201312 yr by Symptoms
