Hey, on the lighter side and without any worries about being politically correct, or anything like that, the thought has occurred to me that it would be very nice if America had its own national sandwich!
I mean we’ve got all sorts of genuinely superfluous national days of the week like: National Doctor’s Day, April Fools Day, Father’s Day, Income Tax Day, Arbor Day, etc., etc. So why not a National Sandwich Day? Sounds yummy, right! My vote? I’m going to go with an overstuffed BLT with lots and lots of crispy bacon, iceberg lettuce, beefsteak tomatoes, with plenty of mayo, and just a touch of dark Gulden’s mustard — All on lightly done whole wheat toast.
In fact, this is what I’m going to ask the wife to make for dinner, tonight! You’ve heard of the: ‘
Reuben’, ‘
Philly Cheesesteak’, ‘
Coney Island Hotdog’, ‘
French Dip’, and ‘
Dagwood’ sandwiches — Right! OK, well, I think I’m going to call this one, ‘
The Crusader’ and offer an alternative sandwich on lightly grilled Syrian bread.
Ummm, delicious!
