Spoony Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I can’t believe you’re all talking about putting gravy in a sandwich as if that’s normal and ok. I don’t care if you’re from the north or south, that’s just mental. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't knock it until you've tried it If you can get it to a gloopy consistency it'll work And good thick bread that's capable of holding with it on obviously Edited June 20, 2020 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Now I know what the red names mean. You are all wrong in the head. Gravy don’t touch a sandwich and crisp sandwiches have butter or marge. Thats the only wet that should be touching them bad boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would I. Bread is always buttered, before you even think of adding anything else. As a small child, long before I learned the word 'sandwich', I always used the term 'bread and butter and... (cheese/marmite/jam/whatever)'. The only exception would be dripping. Mmmmm... dripping.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 You don't need butter if you're then using another wet ingredient Tune mayo, jam, Nutella, cheese spread, any sauce - there's your wet, you don't need butter Marmite ill give you cos I imagine it tears the bread up but I've never eaten a marmite sandwich, only ever on toast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumerican Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Had some Weetabix with hot milk but didn't manage to get the bowl in the sink within 6 seconds of finishing so now I'm off to Speedy Hire for an angle grinder and a blow torch. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sight of butter in a sandwich turns my stomach as my Mum bless her used to put it on so thickly when she did my packed lunch as a nipper it made me gag. I can only have butter melted on toast like you. I hate milk as well because of when we had it at primary school. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It creates some form of weird texture that is quite frankly disgusting. To be honest, forget the Nutella and just have butter anyway, much nicer!

Chindie Posted June 20, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted June 20, 2020 The 'dipped' sandwich is huge in some American states - a sandwich which is then dipped into a thin gravy and served hot. They're so messy to eat they're even a stance used to eat it - lean into the counter, resting on your elbows, so nothing gets on your trousers.

The norm here is cream cheese and nutella and yeah the consistency and texture goes weird, more than anything else it doesn't add anything, it takes some of the flavour away too Today I had a bread roll with Nutella and strawberries on it, my wife stopped what she was doing turned to me and asked what the **** was going on Actually worked a treat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
