Sorry, Blimpie isn't non-pretentious, it's just ass on bread.

Maybe it was the local franchise, but I'd rather eat truckstop sammiches than anything at Blimpie.

Also, you want to see art in sandwich form? Drive out to Boerne, TX on a Saturday and go to my parents' house. There you will see a man creating most wondrous things depending on what bread he most craves. I learned the art of sandwich making from my father, and the art of wrapping and eating it without the need of napkins from my mother.

Future Mr. Mouse had no idea that a sandwich could complete a life until he met me. And I took to making him lunch on weekends.

What. The. Fark.


Is it just me, or is Fark greenlighting a *lot* of worthless links lately?

As a man who loves a well-made sandwich, I nearly cried at this description.

Um. Art sandwiches? I made crap like this when I was 7. It's called "playing with your food," and while there's nothing wrong with it, there isn't anything special about it either.

Really, cheese and meat in concentric circles? Ladies and gentlemen, Pablo farking Picasso.

More like hors louvre - It's not a sammich, it's an artsy snack.

I was eating these sandwiches far before they were on ShortList. I saw them on BreviloquentCatalog. You've probably never heard of it.

This is Fark. Anything that isn't processed cheese food on white bread is pretentious.

`It's all right,' muttered Arthur, `he always talks like that.' Aloud, he said, `Ah, venerable Thrashbarg. Um, yes. I'm afraid I think I'm going to have to be popping off now. But young Drimple, my apprentice, will be a fine sandwich maker in my stead. He has the aptitude, a deep love of sandwiches, and the skills he has acquired so far, though rudimentary as yet, will, in time mature and, er, well, I think he'll work out OK is what I'm trying to say.'

Ever since our six-year-old crush on art teacher Miss Hayes, we've always liked paintings and drawings and stuff.

So this article was written by two or more people who both attended the same class with the same teacher at the same time?

I don't cook often, but I have been known to make a most glorious grilled (well, baked, anyway) cheese ploughman's sandwich (my own invention). Wheat bread brushed with olive oil and a little minced garlic, baked until golden crispy, with layers of cheddar or Muenster cheese hiding a hidden pocket of Branston pickle like a dumpling.

Oh no, I get what you meant.

I was questioning the part where it was referred to as a "joke."

/No, I'm not making you a sandwich


a sandwich is the fus ro dah of foods.

First is the power (the main ingredient), then the balance (the bread that holds it together, hard breads for hard ingredients, soft breads of squishy ingredients), and finally the push (the secret that accompanies and amplifies the first, be that the right mustard and a pickle, be that some remoulade, be that whatever).

/ the most common mistakes in sandwich construction is lacking balance between bread and wetness, and confusion over the primary ingredient (otherwise known as trying to hard, or forcing the elements)

A funny thing about food. No matter how much time and effort you put into preparing it, as soon as it hits the dirt, it's garbage

I live inside a Flank Lloyd Wright house sandwich.

With some de-lish house sauce.

Trying to pick a favorite sandwich is like trying to pick a favorite music artist. There are too many good choices to pick just one, and you will never choose Meatloaf.
