Another powerhouse of a Friday topic that distinguishes the TEF above the riff raff.   Worst sandwich fillings and why.

Top 5…

1.   Jam – Just plain wrong and as indecent as a necrophiliac at Butlins
2.   Banana – Again sweet things just don’t belong in bread.  Sandwich should be savoury.
3.   Peanut butter – You can see where I’m going with this
4.   Beetroot – Usually a filling accompaniment but all the same it stains the bread and makes it soggy.
5.   “the pasty bap”  - This may be a delicacy that’s local to me and technically not a sandwich but a bread roll or bap with a hot meat and potato pasty used as the filling usually.  It is fucking delicious but there is something very unnatural about putting pastry in-between bread products

1. any kind of "paste" or "sandwich spread"
2. That plastic processed square ham
3 eugh or even worse that face meat
4. humous - its a dip - too runny for bread
5 Egg - gross

MING!

1. Sandwich spread. Looks like sick, tastes like sick.
2. Peanut butter. Always hated the stuff, it's disgusting.
3. Cucumber. Has little flavour, a very boring sandwich.
4. Egg mayo. I don't like mayo and egg together, not much flavour.
5. Can't think of a 5th. Maybe cheese on it's own? You need a pickle or relish with it.

1= egg mayonaise
2= penut butter/jam
3= any form of meat (controversial much?)
4= as JFW said, that paste stuff.
5= boiled egg sarnie (a la my old man)

Boiled egg
Egg Mayo
Chips
Lettuce with anything
Tinned salmon

1. Egg anything - it's just not right
2. Brie and Cranberry - people don't have cheese and jam do they?
3. Crab paste
4. Smooth peanut butter. Like peanut butter without the good bit.
5. Tongue. Weird.

It's been a while since I had a good tongue sandwich...

1.tuna.smells utterly disgusting and thats enough for me to steer clear of the stuff.
2.any animal based pate.what it's made from means i'll never eat it.
3.tounge.see no 2
4.mustard.smells and tastes disgusting
5.blue cheeses. only ate it once and nearly puked

1. Anything with Gherkins
2. Anything with Gherkins
3. Anything with Gherkins
4. Anything with Gherkins
5. Anything with Gherkins

you're a madman elliot!

You are so fucking wrong it's untrue. Gherkins are as sublime as a virgin's thighs, freshly kissed in a new spring dawn.

Gherkins make me yakk


Virgin's thighs don't


End of story

Gerniks are ming - hwy Mcdonalds still persist with stuffing them in burgers I do not know? actually Ive not had a Maccie D's for about 11000 years so this could be wrong???

Gerniks

Tee hee :D

1. Cucumber - Cucumber is fucking vile.
2. Prawns - I love prawns but think they're a stupid filling for a sandwich
3. Marmite - I love Marmite, but it needs to be on toast, not between 2 slices of cold bread
4. Chocolate Spread - I don't even know why it exists unless you were to spread it on biscuits. Keep sweet and savoury separate. You wouldn't have Beef flavoured ice cream
5. Anything with too much butter. I don't eat butter in sandwiches, so unless there's tiny amount (not slices of the shit) it makes me heave

I think JFW has got flid fingers today

i can't fathom why people would put butter and mayonaise into a sandwich...if anything the butter is there to keep it all stuck together, a job the mayo does better with better tasting results

I'm mostly in agreement with some of the suggestions already on here:

1. Anything with pickle
2. Anything with gherkins
3. Jam/Marmalade/Lemon Curd/any other fruit based preservative (it belongs on toast)
4. Marmite (I love the stuff, but it belongs on toast)
5. Peanut butter (Again, it belongs on toast)

1. Tuna
2. Tomato
3. Cucumber
4. Honey
5. Too much mayo.

tinned meats

I would agree but I seem to have acquired a taste for corned beef in recent years and I used to detest it.

I think it’s like a blue cheese that it becomes an acquired taste as years go by.

Corned beef and pickled onion sandwiches are superb.
 

When I get home, I'm going to make myself a peanut butter and Branston sandwich with salad (including tomatoes and cucumbers AND gherkins) just to piss you all off.

And you'll probably have the runs for a week. Good luck :)

1. Butter (I hate the foul disgusting stuff)
2. Margarine (see above)
3. Cucumber (just plain fucking wrong)
4. Gherkins (yack central)
5. Chocolate Spread (I hate chocolate already but in bread.....no)

Mayonaisse
Chillies
Chocolate Spread
Ryvitas
That hot shitty burn yer mouth stuff...they put with mango and cucumber salad appetisers at the curry house.

well a ryvita sandwhich is a new one for me.as is the hot pickle you eat with poppadoms.

Have you ever had a gerkin sandwich..................no....and a Ryvita sandwich is very filling even if it does taste like shit......

i've had gherkins in sandwiches and i love em.subway for instance.
that's if i can answer myself leefer?

A gerkin sandwich?....i would say a gherkin goes with something more substantial in a sandwich..i wouldnt like a gherkin sandwich,but maybe some gherkin with something in my sandwich.....

Come on Fred - I know this site isn't meant to be PC, but there is a line between funny and offensive.

To be fair arriba......you were right,i didnt read the thread......i thaught it was anything not just in sarnies.

Lemon Curry?

I quite fancy a lime pickle ryvita sandwich now.

fuck off and do one you over sensitive ring piece

that better ?


Jesus !!!

Mango chutney.

Although deliciously satisfying, it makes the bread go soggy.

Lime pickle...thats what it is...

1.Heinz sandwich spread (disgusting)
2.Lettuce tasteless and adds nothing to a sandwich IMO.
3.Paste (same as number one)
4.Dairylea triangles whats that about
5.Pickled pilchards with the heads still on (was given these while working at danish guys house once)

What is sandwich spread?

Not something I have come across before.  Is it a sort of meat paste in a jar?

like salad cream with bits in

Ahhh cheers looks vile but that link is worth a click just for Aderyn's lengthy review.   He seems a top notch bloke.

I hope when I get to that point in later life I'm writing lengthy reviews of sandwich spread when I'm not out stealing women's knickers.

lush with cheese dazza

Love it with thick bread and lashings of butter.

You should be ashamed of yourself. You've sullied the good name of the Friday Top 5 by sneaking in a Friday Bottom 5, of all the tefians you should know better Dazzza. Take your bottom 5's to another day.
