ErIog posted:Japanese mayo is awesome. It's a bit tangy like it has just a slight bit of horseradish in it. It's much better than the generally tasteless sandwich lube you get most often in the US. Japan actually consumes about a quarter to a third less mayo than the US. It's just that Japanese-style mayo actually has a taste so you see it advertised as a flavor in more things. It's a functional condiment in the US rather than a flavorful one. I find that people like to mock mayo in the US a lot when they are really talking about Miracle Whip. Mayo is necessary on a sandwich or a burger, not as a flavoring, but as a blocker on the top and bottom layers. It stops any liquids from soaking into the bread. I enjoy Japanese mayo but it's a bit sweet for me. Home made is best, but to be fair, it does take more effort than one wants to exercise when all you want is a quick turkey on rye with mustard and mayo. Now Caesar dressing... There is something that should only be made fresh, by hand, no food processor, whole anchovies. Fresh Fresh Fresh.

Sometimes I see food debates pop up in threads about "buttering" sandwiches, and I often wonder... I'm in the US, and I would either use mustard, mayo, or both on my bread for most basic deli meat sandwiches. Folks from Europe or other areas chime in on threads saying that's sacrilege, and that normal people "butter" their bread for sandwiches. This usually results in pages of debate where I think everyone's misunderstanding each other. So my question is: What do folks around Europe put on their bread for sandwiches, if anything. Does "buttering" mean actual butter, as in churned cow's cream? Or something else? I could totally see the word being used as slang for any kind of spread put on sandwich bread. If I'm weird for using mustard and/or mayo on my sandwiches in the US, what do other US people put on their sandwiches?

According to internet nerds, some organic vegetable fresh from the farmer's market lightly pureed. Reading this thread is balm for the soul when I'm feeling down. At least I'm not the type of person who has a strong opinion about mayonnaise.

Yeah it's stupid, it's been fashionable for a while now to declare all kinds of food intolerances for no real good reason, even beyond being simply vegan or vegetarian. I know about gluten intolerance, but I didn't know it went beyond that. The funny thing was the use of almonds instead of peanuts in the other one. What about the evils of tree nut allergies?

I don't care what you put on your bread, but don't pretend that smearing butter on your sandwiches is a normal thing people should feel weird for not doing. That is one in a long list of gross british things no one else does.

If it's a hot sandwich on a toasted bun I'll put a small smear of butter on the toasted bread but butter on a regular sandwich is insane.

Tiggum posted:Uh, yes? Why do you think that would be a bad thing? No I would do one or the other. But I don't butter bread for sandwiches. I've not met anyone else who has either though I'm sure it's done somewhere in the US (by virtue of the population size). If I butter bread it's because I'm making grilled cheese or eating the bread as a side with something like eggs for breakfast. Or maybe toasting it like with garlic bread. Bread with butter is delicious, but it's not how I prepare sandwich bread. Many sandwiches from restaurants have other sauces or dressings. But mayo and mustard is always what we used for basic, simple, deli meat sandwiches.

Brits invented a sandwich that is literally butter, white bread, and french fries. I don't think they can claim any sort of moral high ground just on that front. That said, getting all over butter is incredibly silly.

The Ferret King posted:Sometimes I see food debates pop up in threads about "buttering" sandwiches, and I often wonder... My parents would put a layer of butter on sandwiches they would make for me when I was a child. I was never a fan of that. It was just a regular butter spread sometimes kinda thickly on one of the slices of bread. However, I've never heard of anybody in Europe saying using mustard or mayo on a sandwich was sacrilege. I do it myself and I never had the idea it was something people would find unusual in this neck of the woods. So I'm pretty sure it's a misunderstanding because there is no actual split on this issue between Europe and the US.

Putting butter/margarine on a sandwich isn't weird though? If you have a jam sandwich what do you put on the bread to stop it going soggy, loving mayo? And you think we're weird?

What's wrong with a thin spread of marge on a peanut butter sandwich? Or a meat sandwich, whatever. Maybe it's an NZ thing, but we don't eat much mayo, even on meat sandwiches marge or butter is more normal, with a bit of mayo or sauce. That's not weird.

ACES CURE PLANES posted:Brits invented a sandwich that is literally butter, white bread, and french fries. I don't think they can claim any sort of moral high ground just on that front. Chip butties are magical and I won't hear a bad word about them. To be honest though, I didn't know that putting butter in a sandwich was a British thing until I moved to the US. I still love a sandwich that's just buttered bread, shredded chicken (still hot from the oven) and a tiny sprinkle of salt. You should have seen the confusion when I mentioned a "cheese salad sandwich" though. I meant this: My friends thought I meant cheese mashed up with mayo. It was an awkward conversation until we figured out why the gently caress we were all so weirded out by each other's culinary habits.

My mom's friend used to put butter on peanut butter and jam, and peanut butter and honey sandwiches. She'd layer the butter on as thick as everything else. I threw up once after trying to eat one. To this day, I can't eat peanut butter and honey sandwiches. I can handle a lightly buttered bread that is then toasted, but just cold butter on bread is just not appealing at all.
