It’s a crisp 83°f (28.3c) in the house. I decided I was definitely not turning on any heat source for dinner. Which isn’t cheap. Cost per person: $6.41

      She is from western Pennsylvania. Before I met her she was one of those “mayo is spicy” people.

        Oh no, odd question, how German is she?

        I have a friend who is like that, but not from Western PA but fits your description.

          German enough that I’m surprised her maiden name didn’t have dots.

          Think very close to Ohio, lots of Amish, absolutely zero ability to add seasoning to anything.

            Was she complaining about the blandness or was she joking its how she likes it and can handle it and you succeeded?

            It looks like a tasty sandwich with more ingredients that I usually use in aggregate for my sandwiches which I find not unflavorful, I dont get why she would complain about that in this context tho.

            Was she imploring you to do better next time?

              I think it was shock that I didn’t try to punch it up. No red wine vinegar, spicy mayo, hidden pickles, slaw topping, or other elements. Just a sandwich like anyone might make. She wasn’t complaining. Just a bit mystified.

                Did you punch it down it down in your opinion or did you just learn she doesnt like all that stuff?

                Sorry to psychoanalyze y’all lmao, just seemed bizarre to me

                    Right? Makes sense. Cuccumbers are so refreshing in that respect also
