We found that Scandinavian restaurants all serve open faced sandwiches for lunch. Generally fish/shrimp (all kinds) on a slice of very dense dark bread piled high with veg and herbs. They’re delicious and I’ll be shopping for the ingredients to make them today! I like this guy’s style! What’s your favorite sandwich? Sandwich Guy.

I think my favorite sandwich choice would change after I had one of those sandwiches you are about to make.

The comments are interesting. A lot of people like peanut butter and mayonnaise. Never tried it. Even more like peanut butter and pickles. Really?

When I as a kid my great grandmother (b. 1904) used to make me peanut butter and lettuce sandwiches. I have always wondered if they were an actual thing people ate or just her.

Peanut butter, bananas, and bacon on toast is very good. A BLT with tomatoes fresh from the garden is hard to beat. Big Al

The problem with open faced sandwiches is that you have to use a fork and knife. They can’t be held in your hands like with regular two bread slice sandwiches. Here’s three that I make: Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are thought of as sandwiches for juveniles but lots of adults like them too. I bring a few along with me on long road trips. Beats stopping at fast food joints. Peanut butter and cream cheese sandwiches are a derivative of PB&J sandwiches and they're just as good. Cottage cheese sandwiches. They consist of cottage cheese, toast, a leafy vegetable, and olives. | |||

Some may call me a barbarian, but I have never used a knife and fork to eat an open faced sandwich.  Unless it's something like a hot turkey sandwich with gravy, why would you need utensils?

As a kid, I loved BLTs. I hate peanut butter, but substitute almond butter and I'm in. Back in the early 80s, before there were all kinds of fancy backpacking lightweight foods, I made sandwiches for backpacking--very dense and high calorie--homemade and dense whole wheat bread (baked in my wood burning stove), cream cheese, lots of honey, cinnamon, and raisins. Cut into squares and stick in a zip lok bags. Lasts long enough to supply four nights out. I quit eating sandwiches about 20 years ago because of gut issues (can't handle sugar or yeast), but sometimes I'll break the rules. This is my current favorite: Big, thick slice of Costco fresh-baked cranberry walnut bread Horseradish or other strong mustard Baby salad greens Slice of swiss cheese quarter of an avocado, sliced 3 slices of roasted turkey breast Toast the bread and cut in half, slather with mustard, top with the salad, swiss, avocado, and turkey, and then put the other half on top. Bliss! Just occured to me that bacon would be a nice addition to this as well.

Smoked fish on buttered Lithuanian rye bread. Open face, of course. Or you can do Boursin cheese instead of butter. You may be able to find Amber Rye bread at a Russian market in your area. Maybe this place? https://mayfieldfinefoods.wixs...com/russianfoodstore Amber Rye is imported from Lithuania. Try the Borodino if you like coriander. Or Jums if you want a straight rye. Also both a dark and light rye with sunflower seeds.

I don’t like to eat with my hands (how prissy!). I eat my pizza with a knife and fork, too. My favorite sandwich: Fried chicken. I love them at Screen Door here in PDX; it’s on a brioche bun with coleslaw and thin pickle slices with a side of perfect french fries. I pick up french fries with my fingers, go figure.
