On Fish Fingers and Sandwiches

[billyabbott]

I am a man with many obsessions. Unfortunately, in most cases they are merely half-arsed obsessions, mild over attentiveness that is generally seen as being between slightly worrying and worthy of medical attention. However, one of them that tips just over into the “he’s actually putting some effort into that, best leave him alone” is sandwiches.

My coping strategy for institutional puck-textured fish cakes was copious butter and apricot-"flavoured" jam.

I have to admit I'm a bit more classic with my fish finger sandwiches - mayonnaise and lettuce. Although I've been aware of your peculiar combination for a while I've never quite been able to bring myself to experiment, the disappointment of a wasted fish finger sandwich might be too much to stand if the combination didn't work for me.

My ultimate comfort sandwich is a white bap with a chicken kiev in it. I don't really know why the creation of an oily, garlicy, slightly scalding mess is comforting, but it works for me.

I grew up on sandwich spread sandwiches in my packed lunch every other day (cheese and pickle the alternative) and to this day I have no earthly idea what it was made of or what the lumpy bits in it were. I know I could look it up, but I think I'd rather not know.

Could you make a toasted sandwich with a filling consisting of marmite, cheese and chopped fish fingers, I wonder?

I wouldn't touch a fish finger with a ten mile pole but this post made me laugh a lot.
