Default A sandwich from my childhood

Which was not spent in The Land of Peanut Butter and Jelly:

Two slices of white sandwich bread
A generous slathering of Hellman's Mayo
Half a tin of King Oscar sardines
Two or three squirts of lemon juice
A thin slice of onion
Some crisp iceberg lettuce

It doesn't get much better than this.

I am also a great kipper snack (herring) fan, on saltines. Carried dozens
of tins. Got me out of the wilderness alive.

Funny, I grew up to 6'2" on bread and butter and milk. Mom dragged me to
the doc. Doc said "leave him alone, he's getting the right amount of
protein. I stand the tallest of the family in generations.

But back to peanut butter, one of my favorites as a child was peanut butter,
crisp bacon, and a slice of onion.

People really groan about this one, but my mom made the best jello
salad - it was lemon jello and it had whole apricots in it that had
first been cut in half, and then the center where the pit was was
stuffed with a mound of bacon/peanut butter, the halves put back
together, and suspended in the jello. I know it sounds awful,
horrible, 50s "Wow, Jello!" but man, I loved it.

Egg salad sandwiches on plain white. Eggs were cheap and there were four
boys to feed so Mom used eggs a lot.

Nothing fancy... eggs, mayo and some salt and pepper. I still like it that
way.

It doesn't matter how fancy a sandwich can be, whatever our Mothers made for
us... what we grew up with.. is always the best)

My all-time favourite - bread and butter, a chunk of *real* Cheddar
cheese, and pickled onions. I've loved that all the way back until I
was five years old, when I had it with the farmer in Cheddar.
Memories get locked into one's brain.

I'm not sure about that last part. My mother made what I called "egg
mortar", I made much better egg salad. I took over most of the cooking
by the time I was perhaps 8. My mothers cooking skills have improved
some in the years since I moved out and she didn't have a chef on hand.

Not me. Except for the tomato sauce that was heavy on tomato paste
and bay leaf, to the exclusion of much else, that was cooked not long
enough to kill its acidity, with meatballs made with saltines, which
I've now modified by using fat free saltines and OO, I am not
nostalgic about my much loved mother's cooking. I do dearly miss her
companionship, and she would have been such a fine grandmother to my
son.

You know, after years of fiddling around with variants, I
rediscovered the joy of that plain egg salad when making it for my
daughter. I make mine very peppery though, and thanks to
something I read here, I now use copious quantities of both black
and white pepper.

That, too.

Sometimes we would have Miracle Whip, a well-blotted slice of pineapple,
and leaf of lettuce on white bread.

Most of the sandwiches my mother made were store bought bologna, olive
loaf, or some sort of chopped ham, maybe with mayo, Miracle Whip, or
that sandwich spread stuff, had mayo and what looked like pickle relish
in it, came from Kraft IIRC. Mostly on white bread, never saw whole
wheat when I was a kid. Ours was from the Fair Maid company in Beaumont,
TX. My mom worked nights there during WWII. Was later renamed Rainbow
Bread. Not bad for plain white bread. Rarely we would have toasted
cheese sandwiches or real ham. Dad loved mustard on white bread with
thick sliced bologna and a thick slice of onion. Used to wrap one or two
in wax paper and stick them in his hunting coat pocket. Carry them
around that way most of the day and then eat them. Yuck!

Mom would sometimes buy pickle loaf or olive loaf. We also had grilled
cheese sandwiches. Of course if there had been a baked ham, thewas always
ham sandwiches and near the end, ham salad sandwiches. Another sandwich I
loved was liverwurst and onion with mayo and mustard. Only our housekeeper
ate balogna. None of the rest of us liked it. I don't remember the brands
of store bought bread when I was a kid, except Wonder Bread, which my mom
wouldn't buy. The bread she did buy was much better. Back then I kinda
liked the sandwich spread.

Peanut Butter and Bacon on toast!! I've never added onion but can
imagine it being good.
Now my classic sandwich as a kid was sliced pepperoni (good Italian dry
pepperoni) heated up in a frying pan so it gets hot and crispy, then
drained on paper towels. Toast some bread and schmear with peanut butter
and lay on the hot pepperoni. It gets so nice and gooey and wonderfully
spicy. Try it some time!

I have a cruising friend who loves bacon and mustard on toast for
breakfast.... usually washed down with hot chocolate. It is one of her
"guilty pleasures" every time she does on a cruise.

Well it is a bit revolting but nowhere near as bad as bacon and peanut
butter.

I would have loved the pepperoni, but I never tasted it until I was at least
16 years old, and that was on a pizza.

You childhood was a lot better than mine, I think. Apart from
the normal PBJ and stuff, I also ate:

Ring bologna, ground in a standard hand-crank meat grinder, with
Miracle Whip
Sweet pickle relish
On squishy white bread

My grandfather liked:
Mild cheddar cheese (the orange stuff), ground up with
green pepper
Miracle whip
on squishy white bread

Since these spreads were kind of time-consuming to make, they
weren't featured all that often.

I still put sliced green, pimiento-stuffed olives in my tuna salad.
(Green olives made anything posh, dontcha know.) I also like
them mixed into cream cheese, with walnuts, stuffed into celery.

Don't know about "posh", but I discovered this myself. They are the
best!

I use "olive salad", since that is cheap and who can tell the difference?

(Maybe they are salad olives? They are the rejects, anyway.)

Mmmmm! Sardines!!! I used to being a tin of sardines and some crackers
for my lunch in elementary school, and gross all the other kids out by
picking each sardine bu it's tail and lowering it into my mouth in a
very "I'm eating a little fishy!" way!

Your sardine sandwich sounds wonderful!
