Middle Class Sandwich of the Day Award!

[Fab Foodie]

We're proper middle class round here- tonight it's meat & potato pie butty

That's just orangy-food wrong ...

Tomorrow for work I shall be taking left-over roast chicken, with spicey mango chutney. Today was simple egg mayo, cress and tomato. The eggs did come from my friend's chickens.

Tomorrow I shall be lunching at one of Heathrow Terminal 5's eateries ....

Colleague of mine claimed to have suffered a very middle class injury the other day - burnt his tongue on a toasted pine nut...

As for sandwiches, I had Sainsburys Basic Ham in Waitrose long life bread, alongside a pack of Sainsbuys basics chicken instant noodles, and a Chonion* from the corner shop.

*Cheese and Onion Pasty.

What the heck class does that make me?

It would make me more obese-class than I already am ....

Waitrose is OK Arch, even the pasty is fine, but Saino's...pa-leeze!

Sainsburys is my nearest food shop, unless you count the newsagent and the off licence, neither of which sell ham, cheese, spaghetti, tuna or tinned tomatoes. (pretty much my staples!)

Waitrose on the other hand is more convenient on the way home, because it only involves a simple right turn, not filtering across two lanes of accelerating-away-from-the-lights traffic. But I only ever buy milk,(price matched with Sainsburys), and reduced stuff there.

My colleague Jonny always has interesting lunches made of leftovers, and this morning a breakfast of rice and fermented beans - Natto, I think it was called, sort of gloopy beans in a stringy sticky concoction. Apparently, it's the Japanese version of Marmite - IE, the thing you feed foreigners for amusement.

I can't see anything wrong with it except that pie is upside-down. What's that all about?

There's no tomato sauce, man - it's practically inedible!!

There was only one thin strip of beef in the entire pie! Gravy was nice though - as my shirt will testify.

That reminds me of one of my trips to Farm Foods (aka "The Grot Shop") in Fratton. It's a real barrel-scraper of a shop; imagine a supermarket where the "Finest" range, if there was one, would be like ASDA Smartprice ...

I once picked up a slab of shrink-wrapped stuff claiming to be Ardennes Pate. I flipped it over to look at the ingredients, and the first thing on the list was, "pork connective tissue". I nearly vomited on the spot ...

No, I didn't buy it! They're good for milk and some biscuits (mostly they taste of sawdust) and other things that it's hard to ruin, though. Dirt cheap too.

Sandwiches in general are middle-class. You're not truly working-class unless you have a sausage 99 at the seaside.

I've just consumed Warburtons bleached white bread with lathered butter, cheddar cheese, sweet pickle (one round) and Sandwich Spread (half a round). I just reek of working class, despite the dulcet Estuary tones.
