Damn woman. That's perfect. I was going to say Armani suit, but I like yours better.

Yes. On the side. The sandwich place down the street puts a pickle with every sandwich (including the California Club) except for the French Dip.

Bacon, as in a Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato sandwich.

Good question. And I am rarely pro-pickle. But it ain't a Cuban without one.

I meant the pickle people who claim to put the pickle into the sandwich (but perhaps a blt is not a sandwich worth having, in their views).

I apologize for not being clearer.

I threw away the pickle. And the coleslaw.

I kinda want a fluffernutter.

I like it, but if you'd posted the picture of Eddie just staring at the camera it might have been a little funnier. Less refined though, maybe.

You better be careful or you might become the victim of the Quart O'Blood Technique.

What a BLT needs is a pickle, some tobasco, some cheese, maybe a bit of poultry or fish of some sort (smoked, roasted or what have you), some onion, a lot of pickle, and then hold the bacon and lettuce.

So, yes, I'd add one to a BLT.

I'm in Sebby's camp. If a pickle's available as a condiment, then it's going on the sandwich. But I'm not much of a BLT person, mainly because the tomato has to be perfectly ripe (which it rarely is) and I can't eat mayonnaise. And a BLT is pretty lame without mayo.

And I hate coleslaw. Mostly because it has a mayo based dressing on it, usually. I like the vinegar based stuff that the ribs place in my neighborhood offers.

I'd add avocado before I'd add a pickle.

I'm generally pro-pickle, but I do not subscribe to the a-pickle-on-every-sandwich school of thought.

I would only add the pickle directly to some sort of grilled cheese or tuna salad sandwich (assuming there isn't already adequate pickle product in the tuna salad, which would be an oversight in the first place). Otherwise I will eat the pickle along with the sandwich. I would never throw away a pickle unless it was a bad pickle.

Grilled cheese with pickles added is glorious. In fact, it may be my dinner sometime soon. I just need to buy some bread...

Grilled swiss cheese with tomatoes is one of my all time favorite foods.

I like sweet bread and butter pickles with but not in my tuna fish.

I like pickles with but not on most sandwiches.

I would not add pickle to a BLT, because a BLT is perfect as it is.

Every time I eat a grilled cheese sandwich, I wonder why I don't eat them more often. Probably because I rarely have fresh bread in the house.

(Back in the early dot.com craze, my sister and I, sick of throwing out bread that would get stale after a day or two of purchase, mused opening a bread delivery service called "Daily Bread". It'd deliver only enough bread to consume in a day. We often found that the only impediement to a great sandwich was the lack of bread in the house. Our bread delivery service never made it past the concept phase. Probably best for everyone involved.)

this "pickle on the sandwich" bit is horse shit- it's defies reality- it might be sebby foder, but it is beneath you nfh.

the pickle that will come with oyur sandwich is a 1/4 pickle. one never gets sandwich slices with their sandwich, or at least not on the side. While I agree that a pickle that is sandwich-sliced can improve most any sandwich I'm afrain the 1/4 pickle you will get with your sandwich has little practical use going on your sandwich.
