Does Topping Order Matter?

Posted by jami52, March 2, 2008 at 5:17 PM

I'm convinced the order my toppings are layered on my sandwich influences my sandwich consumption experience.

I personally have a particular affinity for my cheese to between the slices of meat and the dressing to be spread on the top slice of bread. Sometimes things vary depending on what ingredients are included in the sandwich, but under no circumstances may the cheese come in contact w/ the vegetable or dressing nor may the vegetable w/ the dressing.

Does anyone else find themselves w/ sandwich topping order peculiarities?

I Hate Chocolate -- Anyone Else?

Posted by jami52, March 2, 2008 at 10:26 AM

I never have liked chocolate. The darker the chocolate the more I dislike it. Needless to say, finding desserts I like is more difficult than I like since I have a crazy sweet tooth. However, I do admit I enjoy white chocolate...to a point.

I know I can't be the only person on Serious Eats who just can't seem to understand people's intense love for chocolate....

SE users: please introduce yourselves.

Jami, female, 20, TX, engineering college student. I love to eat, but am not a serious cook like most on SE. I enjoy cooking, and have made my share of delicious dishes. I'm what many would consider an amateur cook and wannabe foodie. I grew up wanting to be a food critic just so I could eat for free, but alas...not to be... :)

I'm mostly just sitting back reading articles/threads, taking in the good advice and trying out new recipes. I don't say much, mostly because I don't know too much about cooking to have an informed competent opinion/comment. I'm using this as a learning, educational and relaxing experience.

@worldcupfever: Yeah. I just don't like the idea of eating tiny gummy penises.

I always thought gummies to be more asexual than anything.

I sent the link to my husband the stay at home dad...my 2 year old is currently addicted to gummy bears...he said "gummy, gummy!" and pointed to the screen, bouncing up and down...my husband said it was truly freaky...

The 2 year old also likes the videos on YouTube of "The Gummy Bear Song"...now THAT'S disturbing...

Does this imply that all gummy bears are male?

Ah well... I imagine given that they're mostly gelatin that they were never *quite* vegetarian anyway

I'm Rosezilla (named for my three year old daughter and the giant lizard thing that stomped Tokyo...it's what I call her when she's being...how you say...willful). My real handle is Mandy. I live in Santa Barbara County again after growing up here, but lived for 11 years in western Sonoma County...home of fabulous food and wines. It spoiled me rotten, to become an adult surrounded by all of that luscious produce and foodie opportunity. I managed a microbrewery's kitchen for 6 years, and have SERIOUS opinions about ales, should anyone care for them. Now I'm a home cook primarily, although I do a little catering here and there. My daughter's favorite foods are salmon and broccoli, so I feel as though I've triumphed a bit over the three-year-old beige-food diet. We do, however, eat at McDonald's every Friday after school...it's our little Happy Meal indulgence...and those tiny cheeseburgers are SOOO good. I live with and cook for my mother, as well. I am dating a high school band director, who has actually LOST weight being with me, as he's eating more asparagus and less fast food. I think that size 14 should be the new size 6. I am curvy, healthy, happy and active...and think that excellent foods should be part of everyone's diet. I am active in the "S'Cool Food" movement here, which tries to bring local and sustainable healthy food into school cafeterias. And I love, love, love this website.
