Crazy Combinations
Hey guys!! the two recent threads about hangover foods and herb-induced munchies food got me thinking. on campus we have a sandwich place called PJ's. they make the most insane sandwiches. a normal sandwhich can include chicken fingers, fried ravioli, french fries, mini corn dogs, and mac and cheese. anything that is fried and greasy can be put on a sandwich. they are the BEST for munchies or curing/preventing a hangover.
so what weird combinations would you put on a sandwich? any other weird combos you guys love to eat?

Yeah, they have this kinda resturant at Penn State Main. Its called Are U Hungry and they stuff like...fries, mozz. sticks, onion rings, ect on sandwiches. Its AWESOME.
And for my weird combo, I like grilled cheese with jelly. Not THAT weird, but. Enough people have been like..."Ewww, what the hell!"

@Albee I like Jelly or jam on mine as well...it gives it sort of a monte-cristo appeal!
I'm thinking about this one!

Cottage Cheese, thin sliced dill pickles and bacon on white bread!

Hoagie Haven in Princeton, NJ makes the best ridiculous sandwiches. My last meal before a two-year stint as a vegetarian was a Phat Lady: 12 inches of cheesesteak with mozzarella sticks and fries with lots of spicy sauce (I also order mine with bleu cheese dressing - no judging). A friend of mine, when stoned, was known to inhale a Bloch (chicken parm with bacon and eggs). I miss college...

Olive sandwich!! Wonder bread, mayo, green olives, tomatoes, and Lays potato chips.
Mmmmm.....I lived on that when I was pregnant.
Still sounds tasty.

toast, peanut butter, jack cheese and sambal or siracha

@DELICIOUS that actually sounds really good, wonder how bacon would work with it?
I like to make a heaping mess with leftover holiday foods. Start with the turkey, stuffing, mashed potatos, corn, all the other veg's I like and massive gravy, put into pan, heat stirring everything up. Meanwhile split the rolls slather with mayo, cheddar and heat just to melt cheese, put on plate and pile that slop all over the rolls and top with cranberry sauce. Serve with leftover yams on the side. Another is a cold cheese sandwich with sweet cuc pickles and reg flavored potato chips inside.

Pickle and mustard sandwich on toast - best with sweet sliced pickles and yellow mustard. Dills are also good.
PeanutButter at 8:35PM on 08/23/09
Peanut Butter and cheddar cheese on a King's Hawaiian roll
Peanut Butter and Bacos or potato chips on 9-grain toast
cream cheese, jalapenos and roast beef (I recently read cream cheese and jalapenos is a favorite burger topping at a Colorado restaurant)

Peanut butter and olives. The green mammoth kind or w/e. On flax bread. This store we buy bread from sometimes make this flax bread that tastes HORRIBLE on its own...i can't even describe what the off taste is about...but strangely it tastes delicious when paired with other things.

Grape jelly with turkey and gravy. When I was a kid my mother's whole cranberry sauce was too tart for me, so I tried grape jelly, which was great. I now use an assortment of jellies and jams with foods they don't typically go with. The grape jelly mixed with gravy and potato turned the whole mess into an extremely unappetizing gray, which totally grossed out my family and ensured that I'd keep doing it.

We used to get something called a Heart Attack calzone - which was mozzarella sticks and bacon! It was great, but the place that made them closed, sadly. I tried making them on my own and they were good but not quite the same.

@ pjracz - nothing better than a leftover sandwich!! its my favorite part of thanksgiving lol

Dark chocolate bar with pepperoni, salami, and ham, topped off with fresh mozzarella- all on Italian roll

I think most college campuses have a sandwich shop that specializes in these kind of things. The one time I had one, there were boneless wings, french fries, and some other stuff I can't remember. I was not impressed, and I am the queen of combining strange foods. I made a beef jerky and chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich once.
I used to work at a bagel place, and one of the dishwashers would always eat a bacon egg and cheese on a cinnamon raisin bagel with mayo and grape jelly. Yuck.

White bread with bananas, crispy bacon, blue cheese and dollops of cream cheese, topped with a mild melting cheese, grilled, sandwiched, and served with redcurrant jelly.

Fried egg sandwich slathered with yellow mustard - this from a guy who is SO picky you cannot use a herb or any kind of spice on any of his food, and canned vegetables only with his meat and potatoes - go figure!

It's not a sandwich, but just discovered this weekend, brie and Cheetos!
tinat at 2:32PM on 08/24/09
My dad loves peanut butter and mayo sandwiches. Sounds really gross, but not too bad. I just don't prefer them.
As for grilled cheese sandwiches, I like to dip mine in ketchup. Yum!

We used to go to der Weinerschnitzel after a night out. My favorite meal to ward off a hangover was a hamburger (no cheese) with saurkraut on it and an order of chili-cheese fries with diced onion and jalepenos. It's a wonder I was so slender during college.
FeedingFive at 2:51PM on 08/24/09
@tinat-- I used to love Cheetos and miracle whip when I was a kid, so Brie and Cheetos sounds right up my alley!
carolow at 3:00PM on 08/24/09
All I can say is--- why?
Even the biggest bender or herb withdrawl could not induce me to eat some of these combos.

I'm one of those people who enjoys ranch on almost anything!!!!!! it's just one of those condiments that gets along with amost everyone (savoury I may add)
I'm not as crazy as some of you guys; so here's mine:
- cucumber + camembert sandwiches,
- sauerkraut perogies baked with chili and topped with cheddar
- plain mcchicken with their 'nugget mustard sauce'
- pizza sauce, green onion and canned shrimp baked with cheese on a honey-bun
@zerogirl: wow. thats.....interesting! do you make your own redcurrant jelly?
@FeedingFive: that burger sounds right up my hangover alley! I'll have to try that one iwth heavy heavy mayo
@carolow: PB + mayo sounds strange; but when I was young I would eat PB + cheesewhiz (when the rents werent' looking!) haha

Harriet M. Welsh was right: you can't beat a tomato sandwich.

But I'd also love to wrap myself around anything on this page: http://bit.ly/aurwd

My mom made this legendary sandwich only once in my life, and I still think about it from time to time. I've just never assembled the ingredients to make it myself (don't know why..the list is rather scant): white bread, Kewpie mayonnaise, and a generous sprinkling of rousong (an Asian pork condiment http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rousong).
