What's your favourite working class sandwich?

[Chilli.s]

Bacon and egg. A meal. In bread. Red or brown is an option.

In the words of the great Ian Dury it’s got to be ‘ a bit of slap and tickle’ !!

I luvs a sardine sarnie. De-bone the whole tin, mash, cucumber, lush.

Jelly piece ... aka jam butty.

cheese n tomato or onion on white bread is what I think of as a WC butty, with marge or salad cream.

but not my favourite, not sure I think that would probably be corned dog n brown sauce with slabs of butter on brown.
or sossige n fried egg for a hot sandwich.

 

[RoyReed]

Cheese n pickle init.

 

[xenon]

Corned beef, red onion, English mustard, ground white pepper, in a crusty roll.

A winner ^

I only really have it in a roll, not bread for some reason

 

[Proper Tidy]

White bread and sugar. Surprised I didn’t develop diabetes the amount of those I scoffed down as a kid.

Used to be a brother and sister in infants who had sugar butties and a chunk of marzipan for their dinners most dinner hours. Probably dead now.

I love marzipan, and used to eat it by the block. I can't buy it now or I'd immediately slip back into those bad habits.

Cold gravel with a splash of bitumen.

I've never been able to stand marzipan, you can have my share

The best way to eat is to open the block you can get from the home baking section and eat it like a bar of chocolate. I did used to always feel sick after finishing a block, but it is weirdly compulsive...

Sugar butties, brown sauce butties, butter butties, bread sauce butties - all staples of my youth.

Red onion and white pepper, FFS you posh bastard

I genuinely didn't know there was such a thing as a red onion until my twenties

 

[Ming]

Breville cheese and onion.

It's the texture combo. Crunch of the roll verses the mushy filling.

pretty fancy, frankly

Corned beef has a rep for being slightly grim working class fodda here, akin to spam. Except spam is actually rank. But yeah, corned beef isn't even that cheap now.

Pretty sure I never eat one til my 20's either TBH.

Me neither. Red onions are clearly middle class foodstuffs.

No no no no no! Bones must be crushed as part of mashing!

Yep. Corned beef and mustard or brown sauce in white bread was a staple lunch when I was a kid.
No onion though... and no crusty roll. A crusty roll was a luxury.

 

[Septimus Rufiji]

meat and potato pie on a roll with loads of brown sauce

Corned beef, white bread.

Nobody puts brown sauce on a pie barm. And it's a barm not a roll. Only middle class people say roll.

 

[moonsi til]

Ooh is cheese & picked beetroot on here yet? I recall a colleague referring to it as ‘prole food’ when served at the canteen. I love it esp toasted.

I like cheese and pickled onion...but I've never toasted that. Now I want to try it.

I was going to say barm but then that could very well start the barm/bun/roll/cob/etc wars with the entire forum splintering into various factions and loathing everyone not affiliated. A bit like it normally is but with more of a bread bias.

And anyyone that knows anything puts brown sauce on a pie barm.
