I'm having a tuna fish salad sandwich the way it's SUPPOSED to be done!

[wyldwolf]

Tuna fish
mayo
onion
sweet pickle relish
boiled egg.

None of that fancy smancy stuff like grapes, celery, pecans...

[Padraig18]

1. Perfect!

:)

[StopTheMorans]

2. wow, a tuna-fish salad sandwich elitist, i think that's a first on DU

congrats :D

[motely36]

3. what kind of bread

toasted or non? This is just as important!

[wyldwolf]

8. non. White lite bread!

[motely36]

11. lite bread are you crazy?

lite bread is for wussies! :crazy:

A perfectly good sandwich ruined.

[wyldwolf]

12. "lite" is southern for generic "white" bread

[motely36]

14. oh, ok

carry on then!

[edbermac]

4. Grapes pecans, no...celery is okay...

[trof]

5. Purfeck!

But I like a splash of Durkees.

[GOPisEvil]

6. I make it that way, minus the egg.

Add a little salt and pepper for seasoning.

Oh, toasting the bread helps.

7. Leave out the onion....

But that's just me -- I hate raw onions. The other thing is that you just can't use (blech!) Miracle Whip, which is nasty. Gotta use real mayonnaise.

[Cerridwen]

9. No egg, extra onion. Hey, I'm single, I can do that. :-) - n/t

[Gothic Sponge]

It's too bad tuna fish is full of mercury

[redqueen]

16. WAH WAH WAH

[FizzFuzz]

32. LOLOL

debbie downer

ha!

[Tweed]

10. What you don't know is that it's really Chicken salad

Anyone else seen "I Heart Huckabees"?

[markbark]

13. Au Contraire, mon Capitan....

The purist in me says that a tuna sandwich should consist of the following:

1. Chunk WHITE tuna.
(NOT chunk light.... that stuff is fine for cat food, but unfit for human consumption)

2. Mayonnaise (Miracle Whip is RIGHT OUT)

Flake the tuna using a fork and then add a few tablespoons of mayo.
Mix well.

Serve on rye bread (pumpernickel will do in a pinch) spread with additional mayo if you like and a kosher dill spear on the side.

If you want REAL decadence, serve with a bowl of cream of tomato soup and chocolate milk to wash it all down.

DAMN!... now I'm all hungry ;)

[wyldwolf]

15. rye bread or pumpernickel? Fancy smancy!

[trof]

19. Gotta be White Bread.

And NOT toasted.

[JAbuchan08]

17. Celery is fancy? Seemed like just a regular vegetable to me

BTW boiled egg belongs on egg-salad. I'm sure it tastes fine, but that is not how it is "supposed" to be done.

[LSparkle]

18. Maui onion and roma tomato but no egg or relish

preferably on toasted wheat bread! (I had one for lunch today on "cold" bread and it was still good, though.)

[wyldwolf]

21. some rich snobby tuna corporatist always tries to hijack the sandwich!

Maui onion and roma tomato indeed! Hmm! :)

[LSparkle]

22. Yeah, you gotta take out a loan for a tomato these days

but trust me, I ain't rich or snobby ... I alternate between tuna and Cup o Noodles.

[trof]

20. With hot chocolate?

I dunno.
A childhood thing I guess.
Tuna fish sandwich dunked in hot chocolate.
Sounds gross, hunh?

[Blue in a Red State]

23. No, no, no! Not SWEET pickle relish!

Ewwww. That stuff makes me cringe. Pickles are meant to be...well, pickled! As in sour! I'll have mine with dill pickle relish, thank you. :D

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

24. Sorry, but you forgot the

salad olives.

Get it right.

[wyldwolf]

25. No, I said "None of that fancy smancy stuff"

salad olives? Next, you'll be putting grey poupon on your hot dogs instead of mustard!

[AlCzervik]

26. I like it with onions and then i put potato chips on it

[fluffernutter]

27. oh you rock with the potato chips in it!

:thumbsup:

[frictionlessO]

28. yeppers like eating a casserole sammich!! mmmmmm

[n2mark]

29. Tuna sandwiches

Love tuna sandwiches with mayo, onion, and sweet pickle relish on 7 or 9 grain bread. The tuna must be albacore or I won't eat it.
Call me fussy, but albacore tuna makes the sandwich.

[njdemocrat106]

30. "Tuna Salad in Paradise"

Chunk light tuna (yeah, i know. I like the cheaper tuna better).
Mayonnaise (Miracle Whip is disgusting).
Sweet Vidalia Onion salad dressing.
A pinch of dill.
A pinch of cayenne pepper powder.

Mix together, and put on a soft potato-flour roll with pickle chips either on the side or on the sandwich itself.

Edit: WOO! Post number 100 for me!

[soothsayer]

31. tuna, mayo, onion, hot peppers, white bread with white milk OR

white toast with chocolate milk. Yum!

Cut diagonally of course.

Whoops, forgot the iceberg lettuce.

[Tsiyu]

33. wyldwof, hate to burst your fishy little bubble

but tuna is best served on an onion roll with mayo, bit o' whole grain mustard, bread abd butter pickles ( chopped, of course ), some lemon balm, pepper and there you go.

Your way is second best. :P

[samplegirl]

34. and hold the

Mercury!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
