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

So my perfect sandwich that I can customize at Panera Bread.

Ciabatta Bread
Bacon
Avocado
Green Leif Lettuce
Sliced Tomatoes
Salt and Pepper
Smoked Cheddar
Spicy Mustard
Ham
Sliced Smoke Turkey
White Cheddar
Asiago Parmesan
Red Onions


And that is it. My perfect sandwich. Of course it is like 1500 calories and who knows how many crabs, so I no longer order it, but that is a sandwich. Simply cheese and bread, you are getting fat without even creating an entertaining meal.

Man, if crabs are sneaking into your sandwich without your knowledge, you have bigger problems than calorie count.
 
Half the people in this thread don't know what a sandwich is, they definitely don't know how satisfying a fried bologna can be. I bet they wouldn't even cut the edge to stop it from curling.

You cut the edges off? What a waste! The correct thing to do is to make a single radius slice. It then cooks into a pleasing Pac-Man shape.

I sometimes eat only bread with butter when I have no toppings. And it's good enough. This looks absolutely delicious to me.

I'm happy my food standards aren't as high as most people's in this thread. I could rarely enjoy food if they were.
 
*bow* oh mighty sandwich praise thee right into my mouth *bow*

i'm sorry for having doubted. mea culpa. mea maxima culpa.

And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast sandwiches piled high with hickory ham and nice cheeses, and fruit bats, and large chu...
 
So in honor of this thread inexplicably still being alive, tonight I decided to go out and get a sandwich for dinner.

I didn't get this, but I couldn't not eat here once I saw there was one in town.

fat sal's is the truth. I mean, it's not technically great, it's just a lot, which is exactly what you want every once in a while. In fact I'm kinda against their use of mozz sticks on sandwiches, it doesn't work as cheese and it doesn't provide the same salt and texture of fries or onion rings, but otherwise they're great.
 
I always find it funny how mysterious and confusing Europeans seem to find Americans. Also how Europeans try to spin literally any difference between us into a reason Europe is better.
 
Feels like we need more sandwiches in here

Heres one I absolutely love eating for breakfast but will give me heartburn all day:

Turkish sausage and eggs.
 
I haven't eaten it yet. Are we supposed to clap if no one else is around? I married an Asian lady, so I'm rusty on our ancient American traditions.
If an American claps in a restaurant and there is no one around to hear them, does it make a sound?

That is not anything I would ever want to eat. Just throwing random shit on bread doesn't actually make for a good sandwich. You've got to be selective.

Okay this is a bizarre claim. What do you call meat and cheese between two toasted slices? This isn't a sandwich?

Yeah, that's bullshit. Toasting makes for a great crunch that just enhances the meats. You can definitely and SHOULD definitely toast your bread in some cases. Also a panini is toasted bread and I will fight any man who calls a panini not a sandwich. This thread is really bringing out some bizarre opinions.

I find it funny how sensitive you are to some good natured jokes. It doesn't need neogaf posters to show Europe is the superior country. I wake up everyday and hurt myself just to be treated by the euronhs for free. The whole time we just chuckle at Americans paying for their healthcare and their multi toppings sandwiches.
 
That's one way to keep people from knowing the bread is stale. This makes me sad.

Yeah, stale bread is a huge issue in America. That's what people always complain about, the bread in America is too crusty. It's not that it's too soft, never. It's about how it's so hard and crunchy.

Good job!
 
Perhaps if the OP had a more inquisitive and less derisive tone, we could have had that nice discussion about the neat differences in sandwiches across the globe.

Nothing derisive about it, I had no idea what a sandwich was supposed to be so I was curious as to why they never showed what I consider to be a normal sandwich.

So Americans, this is basically the only thing us Swedes have in the way of traditional food that would be considered an actual sandwich in the US. A smörgåstårta.

What was that? I can't hear you over the massive cheese aisle:

I do 't know if that is supposed to be a joke, but that is nothing impressive at all. Firstly, it's only one aisle. Secondly, it lacks real cheese.

I am Swedish, and all my local stores has about three-four times as much, and also a deli section where you can taste and select from delicious varieties.

Fuck, I'll have to go shopping because the thought of it made me hungry. :D
