The BLT With Mayo On Toast Is The Most Perfect Sandwich On The Planet

[matcom]

please discuss whilst I go consume two

:9

[JackBeck]

1. Yes it is.

I've develoved into just making bacon sammies with mayo anytime we make bacon for breakfast. It's yumm-ooh when you're a little drunk, as well.

[GoneOffShore]

59. You're channeling Ratchel aren't you?

Step away from the EVOO and no one gets hurt.

And keep your hands in sight!

[flvegan]

2. I have to agree.

I really have nothing to add. I like mine on toasted French rolls, with a side of asparagus with a little peanut sauce.

[GOPisEvil]

3. I agree wholeheartedly.

Better in the summer when the tomatoes are fresher. :9

[bettyellen]

20. even better with applewood smoked bacon from Nueskes...

*burp*

[GOPisEvil]

22. Applewood smoked bacon, heirloom tomatoes, fancy lettuce, sunflower seed bread!

That's the way a local place makes 'em. Damned tasty stuff!

[bettyellen]

25. and a side of.....

more bacon.
:hi:

[GOPisEvil]

26. If you can't hear your arteries slam shut, order more bacon!

:hi:

[Fran Kubelik]

51. I LOVE Nueske bacon

Love love love love love it. :D

I know I should not eat animals, and I so want to be good, but damn I love bacon.

[bettyellen]

71. my mom tricked me into eating bacon by telling me they were made from potatoes. LOL.

otherwise i don't eat meat. :shrug:

[Fran Kubelik]

75. I have no excuse. I know exactly where bacon comes from.

And they are smart, sweet, wonderful....and tasty animals. :cry:

Your mom sounds like a trip. :thumbsup:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

4. There's no such thing as "most perfect sandwich."

It's like asking which one is the most favorite child.

(OK, there might be one. But any discussion will only lead to broken hearts and hurt feelings.)

[dben88]

8. There is one.

It is called the Rueben. It should have won a Nobel Peace Prize.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

10. BLTs, Reubens...

grilled cheese, cubans, leftover thanksgiving turkey and cran berry sauce...

ladies and gentlement, there's no reason to choose.

[Hosnon]

34. I disagree. There is if the comparison is between the perfections of two different

sandwich sets.

Such as: A BLT is the perfect cold sandwich; the Philly Cheese Steak is the perfect hot sandwich. However, on the "Perfection Scale", the BLT is a 10 while its competitors don't get above a 5. On the comparable scale, the Philly Cheese Steak is a 7 while its competitors come in at 6.

Therefore, the BLT is the most perfect sandwich.

Edit: I've been drinking and I don't care if this is a tangent:) I believe I misread.

[Fran Kubelik]

5. I agree!!!

:D

[WI_DEM]

7. OK, I got to ask is your screen name derived from a character in the movie "The Apartment" played by

Shirley MacLaine?

[Fran Kubelik]

48. My favorite movie!

Yep! :D

[WI_DEM]

6. even better than peanut butter and jelly with a glass of cold milk?

[libnnc]

9. You are correct. I might add...the mayo used...

SHOULD be Dukes.

Miracle Whip is an abomination akin to new formula Coke and non-alcoholic beer.

It should be banned.


Real mayo for real people, I always say...

[lildreamer316]

15. AMEN!!!

The only mayo allowed in my house.

[libnnc]

17. High-five.

Zactly.

[yy4me]

49. Greater Boston area, no Dukes sold here. We must have

CAINS...and you are right about that other stuff. It is not fit for man or beast.

[GoneOffShore]

61. The only things worse than Miracle Whip

are tofu based mayo and Heinz SaladCreme - they are the condiments of the INFIDEL!

Non alcoholic beer is an abomination.

And anything with HFCS is unworthy before the FSM.

[trof]

11. Except for the "Club".

Chicken or turkey white meat ON the BLT WITH mayo AND Durkees Famous Sauce.
And THREE slices bread.
Toasted.
And potato chips, NOT fries.
yum

[matcom]

19. the Club is a repuke sammy

x(

[KittyWampus]

23. how about if you put cranberry sauce on a club? with onion?

[trof]

74. How can you SAY that?

Just because we had them at the country club after our card game?
Served by our loyal negro waiters?
jeez

[Redneck Socialist]

12. Liar

Freeper troll. Anyone who likes BLTs is series screwn in the head. :puke:

[maveric]

13. I add sliced avocado and call it a BALT.

On toasted whole grain bread.

[lildreamer316]

16. Oooo. That sounds really good..

..and the fat count outrageous. But, who cares. Yum.

[Connonym]

46. That sounds excellent, I think I'm going to try that tonight n/t

[lildreamer316]

14. yesssssssss

now I want one, you ass.

[trof]

18. Except with chili, then definitely grilled cheese.

It's the law.

[matcom]

21. ketchup goes on MY grilled cheese

and the BLT kicks it's ass :D

[Blue-Jay]

72. Ketchup on a grilled cheese? Nasty!

You're supposed to dunk it in tomato soup, ya moran.

[rug]

24. Only if crisp and with a thin slice of Swiss cheese.

[hfojvt]

27. yeah, I love those too

as long as there's no bacon in them, or mayo - that's disgusting unless you are talking to the Mayo clinic. And lettuce is indigestible, so what's the point there?

Tomatoes and toast are really not that awesome though.

[matcom]

30. WHY do you hate 'Murica?

x(

[hfojvt]

41. But I love America

just not the first Amendment, or the 2nd, or SCOTUS, or POTUS, or Congress, or California, Florida, Texas, or Minnesota....Plus North Carolina, they make alot of bacon there.

[AlCzervik]

28. bacon.

there has never been a better food. I made dinner last night and all 3 things things contained bacon.

[Hugin]

29. Wrong-o matcom...

The DOUBLE BLT with Mayo on toast is better.

[matcom]

31. I perhaps stand corrected

:patriot:

[Hugin]

32. It wouldn't be the first time...

:rofl:

Dang, now I've got to go get me some DBLT!

[matcom]

35. Dieting Bisexual Lesbian Transgendered?

:shrug:

[Hugin]

37. Only if it forms a sandwich...

:rofl:

You've been reading too many headlines. :D

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

33. If it's double BLT, then there's less room for beer.

:thumbsdown:

[L A Woman]

36. damn you....

i may need to go buy some bacon now...

[matcom]

38. I personally recommend the thick cut

:patriot:

[Hugin]

39. Oh, hell yeah!

:patriot:

[Mrs.Matcom]

42. And WHO makes the best???

Hmmm?? Who makes the bacon the way you like it? Who makes the toast just the right doneness? Who puts the right amount of tomato, lettuce and mayo on those Sammies??? :*

[matcom]

43. My Mommy

:P

:hide:

[Mrs.Matcom]

44. Your Mommy???

Your Mommy???? Well, you can make your own BLT's from now on! :grr: (where did I put that 'flipping off matcom' smilie?)

[matcom]

45. I'm going upstairs to put on my leather diaper

you coming up 'Mommy'?

:rofl:

[Mrs.Matcom]

47. Yes, dear 'little' boy...

but I think it is time to take your temperature...:evilgrin:

[guitar man]

40. yesss!!

...we have Wright's thick-cut hickory-smoked bacon here. The best I've ever had. Can't wait for the farmer's market to fire up for fresh tomatoes and lettuce :)

[kath]

50. Only if the "T" part is a REAL tomato - those things they call tomatoes

in the supermarket are disgusting - taste like pink styrofoam and have NO resemblance to the real thing. Gotta grow 'em yourself, or perhaps find some at a *real* farmer's market (not one of those things that they call "farmer's markets" where some of the produce is not locally grown but comes from the same wholesalers that the supermarkets get their out-of-state crap from).

[crim son]

52. Put avocado slices on it and then you'll be right about its

perfection.

Once again DU has made me hungry.

[Pied Piper]

64. Avacado is like the fruit of the gods (nt)

[crim son]

69. Thank you. I quite agree.

Musician in Boston, eh? Lucky you.

[Drum]

53. Agreed...and it must be toast.

:9

EDIT to add: crim son is absolutely right! The addition of the avocado reaches sublime. :D

[GenDem]

54. One of my all time favorites

I love to order it in a diner with chips on the side and a big dill pickle. My bacon must be crisp, though, and not too much mayo. I usually have the waitress bring me that on the side and I apply it myself.

[smoogatz]

55. ONLY if the tomatoes are in season, homegrown.

If they're supermarket tomatoes you might as well be eating a tennis ball. And you don't specify the kind of toast, so I'll do it for you--Pepperidge Farm sandwich white (none of this whole wheat shit, thank you very much), lightly toasted (on setting 3 or lower). The sandwich must be sliced diagonally, or it is not perfect. That said, I'd rather have the corned beef at Junior's Deli in L.A., or maybe an onion bagel with lox.

[jakefrep]

56. And you didn't make any for us....

....so that we could reasonably evaluate your claim?

[Burma Jones]

57. Yes

Although the Italian Beef Sandwich, Chicago Style, is an honored alternative whilst tomatoes are out of season. As a child, my Dad would obtain these from the Tivoli Tap in Miller, Indiana. This was the first food that I remember as decadent....I was 5.


BTW, I remember hearing about a British study of what turned Vegetarians into Meat Eaters, Bacon came in first......

[BlueStorm]

58. I just had two plain bacon sandwiches earlier today...

Hey I had to cook up the bacon it was starting to get bad...

But it was some good peppered bacon.

BTW, why does good bacon have to cost $6.50?

Blue

[bif]

60. Nope, the Reubin is.

[MissMillie]

70. I think I'm with you on this

but the BLT comes in a very close second.

[GoneOffShore]

62. Cheese Steak from Jim's wrapped in a slice of Lorenzos pizza

With mayo!

[Telly Savalas]

63. I'm a fan of the low-carb BLT

Leave off the L and the T and the bread.

[Chan790]

65. You're wrong.

The perfect sandwich is cajun-seasoned tofu with spicy catsup on a hamburger bun.

Anyone who disagrees is just a hater. A hater I tell you.

[blogslut]

66. Tomatoes on the side for me

Love tomatoes, just not between slices of bread.

I will give some love to the fried egg sandwich. Mmmm. :)

[auntAgonist]

67. you're absolutely right ! Only ONE thing ..

I prefer miracle whip instead of mayo.


:shrug:

aA

[leftofthedial]

68. I'm a BAT fan

Avocado instead of lettuce

or a BLAT

[Beaverhausen]

73. Add peanut butter and take away the B, the L and the T and then you have...

...the perfect sandwich. Gotta have milk though. Jelly is good too.
