"The perfect sandwich is made using strong or mature Cheddar on medium,
pre-sliced round-top white bread with a thin spread of vegetable margarine,
cut diagonally and eaten at home for lunch in front of the television."

I can't believe that I've missed out on this for so long. The article

Make it with real butter on wheat bread, and you'd have about my 12th
favorite sandwich (which means it's pretty good, I like sandwiches).

Mmmm... I'm wanting a sandwich now. I'm thinking a big hunk of
Italian bread with *light* mayo on it, top and bottom after splitting
it, and then sautee some onions and mushrooms together and heap them
onto the bread, and melt some creamy cheese on top of that. I'll bet
a couple of slices of home-grown tomato would go good on a sandwich
like that. mmmmmm.... Maybe a big juicy jalapeno pepper on the side.
Or a garlic dill pickle. Or both. And a big glass of ice-cold skim
milk. And then going to bed with the ceiling fan on "high" setting.
zzzzzzzzz........ :-D

I grew up on cheese and pickle sandwiches and loved them. I don't know
why I haven't had one in a long time, other than the fact that I rarely
eat sandwiches any more.

It was curious to read the description of the perfect cheese and pickle
sandwich. It talks about the best cheese to use, the best type of
bread for it, margarine (instead of better? egads). It even suggests
cutting it diagonally. For some reason, it says nothing about the
pickles.

My mother used to make them for my brothers and I to take to school.
She made them with her home made bread, old cheddar cheese, sliced
sweet pickles, no butter or margarine.

LOL - I didn't realize that was a quote until I reached the second
paragraph... I was afraid you were losing your mind Jack!...

The article never says what kind of pickle. Since it was a UK site,
Branston pickles, perhaps?

I really like buttered French bread, cheddar cheese, and bread 'n' butter
pickles, I just don't assemble them into a sandwich.

Bob

I have never even heard of a cheese and pickle sandwich, let alone eaten

I grew up on the west coast and it was peanut butter and banana.

Either that or you are not yet up late enough on the internet. ;-)
Right now, it's 03:50 am and I REELY need to get some sleep as I need
to go to work at 2 pm tomorrow. I work swings.

A good late night "I'm bored" recipe is crackers, hellman's mayo, dill
pickle slices and cream cheese. :-) Just about any sliced cheese will
work too.

Or a personal favorite is crackers, a bit of hellman's mayo, sardines
and pickle slices. Low salt chunk tuna in water will work well too in
place of the sardines. I prefer crackers to bread this time of night.
Crunch crunch! LOL!

You will need a diuretic to get rid of the sale fix the next day. <G>

Whoops! That should have read "salt" fix not "sale" fix!

As a kid, I made sandwiches with cream cheese and dill slices.
Probably on thin, firm white bread. I believe I remember thinking when
I grew up, I'd have one every day.

American cheese???!!!! A 'squirt' of mustard??? Oh, Michael, what are we

I'm willing to bet that's because the site is referring to Branston
pickle, as opposed to 'pickles'. Branston pickle is a sort of
relish/spread that's slightly sour and slightly sweet - kind of like a
chutney. You can find it in the US in some shops, esp those with
'foreign' foods. Brasotn Pickle on a hunk of mature cheddar it is
HEAVEN.

btw- IMO butter is too heavy with the strong cheese and pickle. -

Actually it does " 0.196f " being "additional filling"

Cross & Blackwell "Branston Pickle" it is a, for lack of a better term,
slightly chunky spread.

The right sort of pickle is essential as well, don't forget. I think the
only one you can get in the US that would do is Branston; assuming it's
anything like the real (UK) thing.

A good apple (Cox's orange pippin or something sharper) completes the
plate.

Brace yourself, but have you ever tried a peanut butter and dill pickle
sandwich? I love them. My next favorite p-butter sandwich is with mayonnaise
and crisp lettuce. It's the crispness of some other ingredient, IMO, that
makes peanut butter so good.

Peanut butter and pickle is ok for a few bites worth and it's good
with bacon. I do more peanut butter and bacon than anything else.
Keeps me going at work all day.

Not a portable sandwich, but try sour cream and bacon on rye toast. No
pickle. Heart attack on a plate, but really yummy.
