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

    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

              We have traded lettuce for cucumbers for most sandwiches. Partly because it’s a better flavor that can still offer crunch but also because my wife considers cucumbers a food group.

                Both are awesome together, cuccumbers have such an oddly pleasing and palatable almost umami flavor or mouth feel in their own respect, very hydrating too
