Sandwiches

[Rushmore]

Sandwiches are good. I do not eat fast food, and I love sandwiches, so, as I said, sandwiches are good. I don't care about carbs.

Great sandwiches are even better, and I still do not care about carbs.

Now, I'm not talking about that unbelievable brisket sandwich you get for $11.99 at the "NY-Style Deli" in whatever town you happen to reside. That's a different topic.

I'm talking about a sandwich--bread, meat, condiments. Somewhere between $3.50 and $7.00, depending on the size.

I have found that if you go to the local supermarket deli section and order an "Italian" or "The Supreme" or whatever, and you make sure to order it with the premium meat for the extra buck or whatever, you can get some kind of great freakin sandwich.

Boar's Head seems to be pretty top-shelf. Lettuce, tomato, mustard, mayo, and a little vinegar and oil. I like jalapenos, not banana peppers, but that's just a matter of taste.

Green peppers and olives are not right on a sandwich of this kind. Subway foisted this fraud upon us. Olives should reside only in the muffaletta, and there, only in a sort of paste.

Yes, I realize that one can purchase all of the ingredients necessary to produce the same product at a reduced price, but I don't care about that, because I am both lazy and wealthy, and do not care for such concerns.

Anyway.

Sandwiches are good.
