Butter and cheese?
Omfg that sounds absolutely vile.

Is it common to make big multi-topping sandwiches in the US?

See this korvsmörgås thing looks like it could taste okay, google says that falu is slightly similar to or has similar uses as deli ham...but it'd be an odd breakfast here to put butter and ham on bread with zero other preparation. And even if it were bologna on toast that wouldn't be like, a mouth-watering dish haha. Like I can't imagine getting worked up over the idea of having bread butter and some deli meat. I'd eat it and have eaten it, but it's not a craving
as a midwesterner: a lot of places wouldn't have a roll. The breakfast place I worked at in HS and all the breakfast places around me had bacon egg and cheese sandwiches, but not on rolls. usually a hearty wheat or sourdough or rye

Oh, I see the butter now. So wonder bread, butter, with some bologna on top.
Whatever floats your boat, man. That still ain't a sandwich.
Buen provecho
I mean Sweden doesn't really have much of a culinary culture compared to southern Europe but god damn we make awesome breakfast sandwiches. What about a korvsmörgås? Uncooked Falu sausage on a sandwich (ie bread with butter). Like sex in your mouth. And no this is not a troll post. It is that good. Someone asked about my ideal sandwich and here it is.
Oh dear. That looks terribly unappetizing.
But again, it's not a traditional "sandwich" by US terms unless that second slice of bread was on top of the other to close it. This would be "a piece of bread with some scary looking meat thing on it" here.DoktorEvil

It kind of looks like this:
That is the breakfast for the majority of people who are working professionals in a rush.
No. A Reuben is not normally a breakfast meal.
It's a hearty lunch and its meant to be eaten as a full meal.

Nothing better than finding the unassuming authetic cuban place and getting a pan con lechon or a cubano

That looks like something we would serve in a prison.
Enjoy I guess..,

I am going to thank my breakfast guy this Saturday when I go to grab my morning sandwich and coffee.

We have open-faced sandwiches here.
This thread is hilarious, I can't believe we have 17 pages (50ppp for lyfe!) arguing about this! That "poverty", "struggle" sandwich is pretty much what I grew up eating all the time... Or something equally "sad" like this:
Now, this I won't condone! Falukorv has no place on a sandwich.

If it makes you feel better it looks like you can fold it!

Did someone just say that Falu meat has horse meat????
You do? Then why are so many saying it doesn't qualify as a sandwich if it doesn't have another piece of bread on top?

That does look good. You should have started with that oneHere's a tastier-looking variant
But I got to say, that looks more like an appetizer than a meal
Just the genitals
Sure it's a mix of different types of meat. We do eat horse here. For some hilarious reason they call it "hamburger meat" although everyone knows what it actually is and there isn't really a stigma surrounding it so it's basically just weird:

I never heard of an open faced sandwich till today and I was born and raised here. Must be really niche or something, or have another more common name

I will get another piece of bread to make it complete. It looks like an unfinished piece of art.

Why do you guys just not combine the two into one sandwich like we do?
Do you guys like trying to eat the bread without touching the cheese/meat? Is it some kind of weird game?!

Because it's from Hamburg, not from hamburger.
When my dad worked in corrections, he called them horse cock or donkey dick sandwiches.
If you put more bread on it then you need more toppings and then it becomes even harder to eat. It's a vicious circle where no one wins.

Have you never had a bread with toppings like tomato or cheese or whatnot? This is more akin to that than a typical sandwich

Yummy.
Open sandwich isn't that common in the UK. But you can get it here.
It hasn't been this bad since the war of "Wait, Americans don't have electric kettles?". Oh I remember the famous battle of "You MICROWAVE water?!".
Wikipedia says that Hamburg meat is supposed to be beef, but they took the name and used it for horse meat because of the prejudice against eating horse. The more you know!
Open faced sandwiches here are loaded with too much meat or other toppings and the bread won't hold together when picked up. Cheese on a slice of bread or bologna (or spam) on a slice of bread is still just cheese on a slice of bread and doesn't earn the sandwich designation.

Hah, yeah those kinda baffle me too. At that point why not just get a steak? I guess I can't really judge because I've never eaten such a monstrosity, but yeah the balance seems all out of whack.
Now I am sure this person is trolling.

Maybe I'm using the word "sandwich" wrong but these are normal breakfast... things
i've never seen anything so un-american in my life.
I need to go make a 10 story tall sandwich and clap for 24 hours just to cleanse my mind of this

Got a link for the microwave one?
You burn the hell out of it?
I'm just saying that both open-faced and closed sandwiches are difficult to eat with your hands, but for different reasons.
I have never in my life heard of someone putting tomato or cheese on a single piece of bread and just eating it like that.

I need to study Sweden in detail. Find out their food traditions.
I need to know if those Ikea meatballs are filled with horse meat.

Probably the most common sandwich in Sweden (open faced, though)
Steak is expensive. The idea is to show value to the customer, and you'd mostly take a bunch of meat off to save for a later meal. That's how it originated anyway.
