Ill grab a pb&j once in a while but even as a kid fluffernutter made me gag.
I hate marshmallows.
I like marshmallow (just had a Peep the other day lol) but ive never liked the gloppy creme stuff
I just prefer other methods of ingesting stupid amounts of sugar ![]()
me, neither
Note the past tense.
ETA: No idear why this response was initially to myself. Too much sugar? ![]()
that ‘Parma Classico’ looks good, but… $20?!!
I stopped at a Subway recently, and totally balked at paying £9 for a foot long and walked away.
Thinking I need to start baking my own bread products, might start with a French style white baguette, so nice with basically anything ![]()
Canadian numbers in prices are higher than US numbers are, because our dollar is worth less than US Dollars.
1 Canadian dollar is 73 US Cents and 0.54 GPB today.
$20 CAD is 10.87 GBP.
This is also a gourmet shop and the sandwiches are big enough for 2 light meals or 1 big meal. The fancy Italian sandwich shops use imported prosciutto or mortadella, in the case of Alfie’s above,the bread is made all day long.
I keep track of the sandwich prices in Toronto here
Sandwiches of [the Greater Toronto Area]
The going rate for a big sandwich, a shawarma in a pita, or a souvlaki in a pita in downtown Toronto is generally $14- $20 CAD.
Smaller sizes banh mi and smaller tosta mjsta can be found for $5-$8 CAD.
I should bring my scale to weigh these big Sandwiches. Some of the $16 CAD subs weigh over a pound.
I can’t remember the last time I ate at Subway. Maybe 10 years ago. I used to get the 6 inch with turkey, mayo, pickles, hot peppers, and olives when I was a 20something. Subway, being a chain, would be a bit cheaper than Alfie’s, above.
Subway? Walk in the opposite direction. Their bread is vile.
Just the smell of a Subway shop is enough to make my stomach churn ![]()
I once decided to get a Big Mac, followed by something from Subway, followed by a Whopper, because they were all within a minutes walking distance of each of other, and ‘science’.
The Big Mac, being first tasted just as a Big Mac always does and disappeared down my gullet in less than five minutes.
The Subway - which was probably a multi meat option - took longer to order, especially given my usual salad and dressing choices, and longer to eat to the order of at least two or three times.
The Whopper, which I am a long time fan of, didn’t taste of anything after the Subway… but I do like my olives, jalapenos, and ranch and chipotle dressings.

Wild combo!
not really so original, inspired by a certain famous fast food fish and cheese sandwich ![]()
very delish.
There’s a very , very good French bakery in Greenwich CT. called Raphael’s. They make their own baguettes and the ham & beurre sandwich they make (as is everything they make) is excellent.
Nice you have that nearby. ![]()
I have had a nice one nearby in Toronto, at La Boulangerie on Dundas W.
I just prefer ham and cheese, Tosta Mista, and Croque Monsieur to Jambon-Beurre. Just a matter of taste and there is no accounting for that!
This is the ham and Comté at La Boulangerie near me that has a good Jambon-Beurre.
My first experience of the prawn and bacon combination was with mayo in a buttered, crispy white baguette… so good!
Good quality bread is essential for a good sammich.
There’s a hot buttered lobster roll available on the East Coast of the USA which is divine.
No mayo, warm buttered lobster in a white roll.
