Oh nice! I like the way he thinks. I’m nuts about tropical flavors.

This is stupid carnivory, so I’m sharing it here. This is a retouch of my previous “weird double down”. Took a Don Lee Farm’s chicken breast patty and slice it in half lengthwise to create all protein burger buns, put it around some piedmontese grassfed burger patties, a slice of jarlsburg, a strip of bacon and a fried egg. Some Chosen foods avocado mayo and pickle slices to round it out
I will say though, they’re a million times better than these monstrosities
And this really looks like a “crime scene against nutrition”, but I got some gallon glass jars and gathered up all the stock and tallow I’d been accumulating in little mason jars through my sous vide and other experiments

That’s one of those classic “tell me you grew up poor without saying you grew up poor” kinda moments.
Like I had friends that drank “Imagine-aid”. You mixed the sugar in with the water and imagined it tasted like something else.

I was going to take a dig at the limeys, but I ate ramen noodle sandwiches and pop tart peanut butter sandwiches when I was trying to gain weight, so I don’t have the moral high ground when it comes to carb bombs.

This would ALSO make an outstanding topic. I love sharing old bulking stories.
One of my claims to fame was sharing a technique that Mike Tuchscherer actually implemented. We were at a function with pizza being served, and he commented and said “Ya know, this is pretty good, but I kinda wanna get a Whopper from BK” (it was right next door). I said (jokingly) “Mike, dude, just take 2 slices of pizza and put them around the Whopper like buns to have the best of both worlds”.
He looked at me wide eyed and said “That’s genius”
After lunch, he found me and told me that it was an incredible idea…I didn’t think he was actually going to do it. But ever since then I wanted to try it.

One of my peeps was in her 80s and always wanted to have an English garden thing going on. One of her favorites was a lettuce sandwich.
Her: “Would you like a lettuce sandwich?”
Me: No, but thank you.
In my head: Imma gonna need something a little more substantial to power me through weedeating this cliff down to the river. Lettuce sandwich isn’t going to get the job done.

I had a buddy of mine that learned about the “Unwhich” at Jimmy Johns, where they wrap the sandwich in lettuce, instead of bread.
He was on a recent health kick, so he decided to order that…with the veggie delight sandwich.
He didn’t realize that he had effectively ordered a salad without a bowl. I genuinely wonder how those poor workers crafted that monstrosity.

I was thinking about this and realized I used to eat at shit-ton of tuna fish sandwiches. I’d easily polish of 3 at a time back then, and even now I’ll have one a couple times a week.
It seems to have fallen out of style though.

tuna fish
As an aside, I always wonder about the specification of “tuna fish”. What’s the alternative? But perhaps it’s to clarify that they aren’t tuna steaks.
But it also reminds me of one of my favorite scenes from the Pumping Iron “Raw Iron” lost footage
The moment I heard “Tuna Omelet” I realized I had been missing out on an incredible idea. Made one on the spot.
But these days, young lifters are scared of heavy metals in tuna, so they’ll just eat David bars…
Yeah man! And some Kens Steakhouse italian dressing. Optional, but not really.

There’s a whole thing about speciation of mercury that kind of ameliorates the mercury thing, but its really complicated and kinda falls by the wayside.

Is it just tuna and eggs? Or another add in?
My secret ingredient in tuna sandwiches is grated green apple.
I find people will rapidly cling onto claims of danger when it means they don’t have to do something they don’t want to do, while they’ll ignore these same claims when it’s something they DO want to do.
“Tuna has mercury: I can’t eat it”
“Ya know ice cream is pretty directly linked to obesity and type II diabetes”
”F**k off bro-science!”

I’m fairly certain I included cheese and topped with sour cream, because I use sour cream like M. Night Shyamalan uses a twist ending.
Always, indiscriminately, even when it’s clearly inappropriate, unwanted, and upsetting to everyone else.
