Butter is OK on a sandwich in general. I mean, a real sandwich, one that has the starch on the outside and protein on the inside and does not involve French fries in any way.

In the UK butter goes on a sandwich where you'd put something like mayo, as near as I can tell, but it also goes where you wouldn't put mayo, unless you really loved mayo, I guess. The first time I had a sandwich from a shop with a nice thick layer of butter on the bread that you can see your teeth marks in I was

Get me a slice of bread with a nice layer of fresh salted butter straight from the farm and I'll eat it in no time. But don't ever try to fool me with one of these disgusting vegetable-oil-based butter ersatz.

When you put a tupperware container full of mayo in the fridge, then pull it out and mistake it for butter that had slightly melted and then re-cooled, and use it for the things you use butter for. My younger child thought the peas with "butter" were fine (and I couldn't figure out why the butter didn't melt right and looked so white), but the older child cried and sobbed that the cinnamon toast was all wrong, and refused to eat it. It was only when I spread it on bread and ate it myself that I figured out the problem.

In Scotland I guess they are sold as "morning rolls" but I've never heard anyone refer to it as that. Roll n Square Roll n egg Roll n tattie scone It makes no sense since we are essentially saying "roll in sausage" when the sausage is actually in the roll but heh. Also lol at black pudding in a roll being considered unique. A roll in tattie scone and black pudding is a weekend breakfast essential to most people up here.

Also, to add, I was down in Manchester a few years ago for work and after a hard nights drinking I went into a local cafe in the morning and asked for a "roll in sausage" and was looked at by the women like I had just murdered her children. And she returned with the order which was toast and bacon.

Trip report from something I didn't know existed before today 2 chicken burgers, bacon and cheese between 2 waffles. The sauce is maple syrup and is perhaps my new favourite thing to put on fries. Not going to drum up a story about death as it was gorgeous and I would eat again

I think part of it is leftover feelings from the "SATURATED FAT IS LITERALLY THE WORST POSSIBLE THING YOU CAN EAT BUTTER WILL KILL YOU" craze of the 80s. When my parents were children buttering the bread on a sandwich was a perfectly normal thing to do, but most people my age seem to think it's disgusting.

Speaking of poo poo that's bad for your health though, finally gonna do that writeup of the Pizza Hut Hot Dog Pizza Crust thing. As can probably be expected, it really isn't that bad, or really all that strange, crust aside. The crust was greasier than I remember, and pretty wet and floppy, but I haven't had Pizza Hut in forever so maybe I'm just remembering it wrong. We decided on meat lovers because if you're gonna order a hot dog crust pizza, goddammit you might as well go whole hog with the meat thing. With me I had a former roommate and a compulsive couch surfer for second and third opinions. The base pizza itself was pretty standard, nothing really interesting. But what was strange was that they brushed this strange glaze on top of it that nobody in the room could recognize, and to each person it seemed different. To me it tasted like a very slight mustard, to the ex roommate it was a weird sweet honey sauce, and couch surfer couldn't tell it was there at all. Aside from being brushed over the majority of the pizza, seems like it was mixed into the edges of the crust as well, mainly in the hot dog gaps. Both of us who noticed it liked it though, and I'd definitely order it on another pizza if I could. The hot dogs were pretty unremarkable to me, but if I do hot dogs I usually just go with bottom shelf oscar mayer or something to that effect. More of a brat and other sausage guy myself, but ex roommate really hated them, and pawned his off on couch surfer, who loved them. I think the advertising made a big deal of the hot dogs being a specific brand that I never heard of, so maybe we're just out of the loop?  Overall though, it's just kind of there, and outside of the audacity of the idea and the terrible things consuming something like that regularly would do to your health, I didn't mind it. And now, thinking back on it from monday, I kind of want to spread that mustard sauce or whatever it was all over everything now. Edit: Oh, right, I forgot, speaking of mustard, they packed a gigantic tub of french's mustard with the pizza, way more than you could ever use unless you were taking huge globs of it with every dip or something. Despite talking up the mustard sauce or whatever, I actually hate mustard on it's own, but I gave it a shot with a dip of the pizza and the bites, but it still couldn't win me over, and outside of what I took, nobody touched the thing. Seems like such a weird decision. ACES CURE PLANES has a new favorite as of 22:42 on Jun 25, 2015 |

There are about a zillion things you can put on sandwiches besides butter to make them not-dry. 3. Butter costs about 10x as much as most of those things and is also hard to spread on soft bread if kept refrigerated.

BARONS CYBER SKULL posted:Americans complain about dry sandwiches but refuse to butter the bread first it's LIKE I'M LIVING IN A CUCKOO CLOCK! Not sure what you mean really. We don't eat sandwiches on dry plain bread. But, what we often spread on that bread isn't usually butter. So they're not dry, but they also don't have butter on them. They have other things. Does that make sense? Like, you can see how both thing can be true? Not buttered doesn't equal dry. Not buttered can mean that something other than butter was used. I'm just trying to cover all the bases here. I don't put butter on most sandwiches, but I do put other condiments on them.

Atkins isn't popular the way it was a few years ago, but people are way more open to fat these days, and carbs are the enemy. It's so ridiculous. The way Atkins works (and it does, with caveats) is by cutting out ALL carbs, like absolute zero, which is the only thing that triggers the bodyhack. Just reducing your carb intake by like 30% or whatever doesn't do a drat thing except make you more annoying to eat with. As with so many things, people have absorbed the first half of the single-sentence gist of a thing, and missed the rest, like the Nazis reading that medallion inscription off that dudes hand

Tiggum posted:You're weird. I'm not making that claim at all. I just said I don't put butter on my sandwiches. I use butter a lot in other dishes. Like, even though I understand that it's typical for other cultures to butter sandwich bread, that's not what I do. I also don't know that buttering sandwich bread is typical of most Americans. So, basically I'm saying that I like butter, but I use different things for my sandwiches and I think that's the norm over here in the US. I do not think it is wrong that others use butter. It is just not what I use. Am I making sense here or do you still have questions or concerns?
