In some 2000-10s comedy, “bish, make me a sandwich” is a common punchline. It begs the question, what goes in the sandwich?

As a follow up, how does that differ from the sandwich you might make for yourself?

    I’ve only ever heard the phrase when a random internet dudebro was trying to show off for their imaginary friends by insulting me for being a woman.

    If this thread is for men only, please amend the title. If it’s for everyone, amend the text to acknowledge that for half the population it is not a punchline, it is an insult.

    If they made me a real Reuben sandwich, on rye and with the sauce and everything, I’d do anything for them.

    A sandwich I’d make for myself likely just consists of turkey lunchmeat, a few slices of cheese, and some lettuce.

    Honestly, I don’t. Because I make them better.

    My GF is awesome at many things, some of them includes food. But when it comes to sandwiches I am simply better at making them precisely how I like them.

    And this is where i started a “having said that…”-sentence with the intent of describing the elaborate process of making me the perfect sandwich, but I realize that I can’t be arsed typing it all out. Peace.

      That is the situation in my household. My wife is one of those people who goes overboard on the primary filling and throws the proportions off. It isn’t Katz’s deli levels but it is noticeable.

    I would be happy for a simple grilled cheese. Pretty hard to mess up, tastes great, quick. Best comfort food! 🙈

    2 slices of spelt bread, toasted, ( the real one, not colored wheat), miracle whip with a dash of German mustard, thin roasted pork, real Dutch Gouda, thin slice, a bit of salad (optionally with a few thin pieces of beetroot), 2 small tomatoes on the side with good salt and a bunch of mixed freshly ground pepper (red, white, black) on the tomatoes, comes with it a large cacao. There you go.

    Whichever one I’ve asked for from the local sandwich shop. He probably could make a sandwich at home but I’d have to carry it into the living room to eat anyway, so I’d just make the sandwiches!

    If I told her, “bish, make me a sammich!”, I would get a no-sex sammich. It would be all that I get to eat for days, and it would differ from the sandwich I might make for myself by the number of people involved.

        Can’t tell you mate, no identificable information from me, but just look for small places like food trucks or tiny establishments with lots of people on the line, and I bet that sandwich will be better than anything someone could do at their home.

    The “pro-eato” we used to make at one of my first jobs. Pastrami, turkey, and melted provolone on a toasted onion roll with coleslaw and Russian dressing.
