Yes, serpent, I agree. Now, off to have a peanutbutter and bacon sandwich! (not really, but...one can dream)

I used to eat peanutbutter and baloney sandwhiches when I was young.

With a little genetic tweaking it might be possible to get a peanut butter flavored banana.

And if they can make the peel taste like bread, they'll have a perfect Elvis sammich.

Isn't there bacon involved in an "Elvis"?

Elvis Presley's Grilled Peanut Butter
and Banana Sandwich

2 slices of white bread
2 tablespoons of smooth peanut butter
1 small ripe banana mashed
2 tablespoons butter

Spread the peanut butter on one slice of bread and the mashed banana on the other. Press the slices gently together. Melt the butter (or to be truly Elvis-like, melt bacon fat!), over low heat in a small frying pan. Place the sandwich in the pan and fry until golden brown on both sides. Eat it with a glass of buttermilk.
Please note: Elvis tended to eat 12-15 sandwiches a sitting! So belly up!

I can see where two slices of crispy bacon added to this delight would only improve it.

OK, not perfect.

But you could poke a hole in it and finish it up.

Spexxvet · 10-09-2006, 05:35 PM

Smooth peanut butter!?!

Skippy Super Chunk is THE BEST!

Why can't you go to drivethru and get a damn meatloaf sandwich with bacon and spicy ketchup or gravy?
If I were better I would open a damn meatloaf fast food joint!

With a little tweaking of the recipe you could make it reasonably healthy.

hahaha
At the bakery we used to sell whole wheat carob chip cookies sweetened with honey. People would come in and ask for that kind of stuff, it was a loss, underwritten by white flour and white sugar.

People would ask for whole wheat croissants etc. I'd say to myself "If you need the fiber from a whole wheat croissant, then you're eating too many croissants."

And cheese. meatloaf with bacon and cheddar cheese with a BIT of ketchup.

What would you call your drive-thru restaurant?

Undertoad · 10-10-2006, 09:16 AM

The Plastic Gourmet. I picture things like $8.99 prime rib au jus with garlic/rosemary mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli, served drive-thru style for harried familes who are tired of nothing but quick burgers. The drive-thru is mostly for people who call/web/text ahead with their order; there's a covered parking lot for people willing to wait 10-15 minutes for quicker items.

Don't you guys have Boston Market up there? It's practically exactly what you're describing. They have meatloaf, roasted chickens, fresh steamed vegetables, pasta salad, cinnamon apples, macaroni and cheese... all served to go with cheapass plasticware. More expensive than fast food burgers, but cheaper than your typical family restaurant.

I got our entire Thanksgiving meal from them last year, put all the food in my own serving dishes, and no one knew the difference.

We have a shop here where you can get a Yorkshire Pudding with a filling of your choice to take away. Best sellers include Sausage, Mash & Onion Gravy and Roast Beef with Veg. Sadly quite expensive, but a payday treat.

There is a picture on this site for reference

We do, just maybe not out in the country, where UT lives.
