If I could only eat one food category for the rest of my life…
It would definitely be sandwiches.
The idea to put all your food groups between some bread is so brilliant, and delicious.
I am a huge fan of food combinations — with sandwiches combos are both infinite and handheld.
Deli sandwiches, salad (egg, potato, fish, etc) sandwiches, open face (my dear Croque Madame), hot dogs if you want to be controversial, paninis, dips…
My favorite sandwich is the glorious hamburger. All burgers. Half-pound patties with thick buns and lots of toppings. Diner-style, smashed patties with some char, on soft buns. Melts, with gooey cheese and dressing between buttery slices of sourdough bread. I could get by on hamburgers alone, but fortunately thanks to the sandwich loophole I would be able to cast a wider net should this hypothetical day ever come.
If I were only allowed to choose a single ingredient, it would certainly be milk. But that is a love note for another day.
