Peasant version pffft. I want the pheasant version.
I can still get a Monte Cristo a couple of miles away at John Ascuaga's
Nugget. I'm an adherent to the twenty years between those sandwiches
rule though. Ham, swiss cheese, white bread dunked in egg batter, deep
fried, cut longwise and sprinkled with powdered sugar (If I had to
guess). I paid no attention to the jam.
Cool name for an overweight rapper: "MC Sandwich".

McDonald's would sic their lawyers on him the moment they got wind of
it. A very popular sushi restaurant here ran afoul of McDonald's
20-25 years ago... it was called McSushi at the time. They had to
change their name or face a costly court battle which they didn't have
the time or money to engage in, so they cut their losses and changed
the name.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

Wisdom is knowing that it's a vegetable and putting it on a sandwich.

What is the problem with fruit in a sandwich. Peanut butter and jam
sandwiches have fruit in them.

I've never had peanut butter and tomato sandwich. Who knows though, it
might actually be good?
