Post by: TwistedFlax on May 04, 2013, 11:56:39 PM
I had never heard of this until today.  Is it a thing outside Nearly Canada, MN?

That is disgusting. Somehow I am not surprised that it is a Missouri / North Dakota thing.

I've seen ribbon sandwiches before where you layer the bread like that with egg salad and whatnot, but I've never seen it frosted like that.  Yuck.

reminds me a bit of the Friends episode where Rachel tries to follow a recipe and the Sheppard's Pie and Trifle pages get stuck together.

Okay, good.  The inlaws couldn't believe I never heard of it.

They agree it's nasty, but think it is almost cute enough to make up the difference.

I would suddenly become lactose-intolerant. Or allergic to gluten. Or something. Yup. Bad allergy. Can't touch the stuff. So sorry. Looks delicious.

it is obvious none of you grew up in a franco american community.

polish loaf, anyone?

Funny.  The inlaws are Croatian.  I'm sure they would have all sorts of ethnic slurs at the ready in response.  They're always on about how the Pollacks stole all their good ideas.  And they're always ideas as good as sandwich loaf.

I want to make one ironically and serve it to hipsters. Hopefully they will all Instagram it before eating.

I'd eat it. It's just cream cheese, not sugary frosting.

It's the layers of mushy white bread, mayo based "salads", deviled ham and olive nut spreads (http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/party-sandwich-loaf/38bf7e0c-fa74-4887-9148-ddbe86ba2752 (http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/party-sandwich-loaf/38bf7e0c-fa74-4887-9148-ddbe86ba2752)), THEN cream cheese that I think are problem.   :nono: :nono:

what is the point of a sandwich you have to eat with a fork or spoon?  A weird idea.  Also anything with wet bread or cake is pure evil.  I am looking at you, trifle.

I MIGHT eat it.  Depending on whether the layers clashed badly with one another.  I'm ok with cream cheese slathered on things.

Okay, if it's wet soggy white bread, no way.

If it's soggy, no way. Otherwise? I don't really see what the big deal is. This is way less gross than...say... foie gras, for example.

I love tiramisu and trifle!

But heck no to mayo-salad layers and cream cheese. It's just too much!

If it were peanut butter and jelly layers and frosted with peanut butter, I'd eat it.

Post by: caribougrrl on May 07, 2013, 09:09:31 AM
theoretically, you could make it with pumpernickel and layer smoked salmon, capers, red onion and cucumber... no, I still can't quite get past frosting a sandwich even if it is with cream cheese

maybe sage-y roast chicken with hot mustard, frosted with pate? 

hmmm... it could be that sandwich loaf is just a plain old abomination, but that's not going to stop me considering it for the next friendly neighbourhood potluck...

Sandwich loaf doesn't sound appealing, but I could probably be convinced to try ice cream bread.
