449. PB & Mayo Sandwiches (and Girl Scout Cookies) With Amanda and Sarah

As a follow up to last week’s podcast, I share the broadcast of Amanda and I making peanut butter and mayo sandwiches, inspired by folks who have shared strong opinions.

Yes, we eat PB and Mayo sandwiches. Live on air. I’m sorry.

But we also talk a LOT about cookies so if you’re hungry, maybe have snacks before you press play?

We also cover:

  • Good roommate code of behavior
  • The culinary roles of the Wendy’s Frosty
  • Mayo as condiments for fries? (YES)
  • Potato chips IN the sandwich? (YES)

We answer these Very Important Questions:

  • What are the regional mayos near us?
  • What peanut butter brands reign supreme?
  • How many mayos are in our fridge?
  • How much does Amanda love pickles?
  • Should we add pickles to the mayo and PB sandwiches?
  • Which Girl Scout Cookies (regional and national) are the very greatest ones?

And we have one of The Funniest Neighbor Stories I have EVER heard.

Seriously, if the year marker of the Quarantimes has got you a little down like it has me, and if you need more silly-laugh and food mayhem, you’ve come to the right podcast episode. Visuals for this episode are in the show notes.

    Oh god…that sandwich. I don’t feel well.

  2. Lisa says:

    Peanut Butter, Banana, and Mayo sandwich.

    Just had one for lunch 30 minutes ago. Grew up with them

  3. Stefanie Magura says:

    I only eat pickles if they are mixed in things such as tuna salad. I do not, under any circumstance, eat them by themselves. So no, peanut butter, pickles, and mayo for me. I might try peanut butter and mayo though.

    On the topic of girl scout cookies, have any of you tried the Toast Yay! cookies? They are meant to taste like French toast.

  4. Stefanie Magura says:

    Also Amanda, I recommend catch-up with sweet potato fries, and I am also usually a mayo person all the way, but I love this combination.

  5. Kareni says:

    There is one mayo in the fridge; Kraft, I believe. We use Adam’s peanut butter, and, yes, it must be stirred. I recommend a pbj made with black currant jam…yum! Favorite Girl Scout cookie: Thin Mints. And now I’d like to try a lemon Oreo! Thanks for a fun chat.

  6. Argie says:

    PB and dill pickle sandwiches were a staple in our house growing up, if dad was making lunch. The vinegar (pickle) and salty (pickle and PB) are a great combo. Sometimes you roll it up in a tortilla so you don’t have to slice the pickles.

  7. Lorien says:

    Hilarious! I am a new listener and this was the best initiation. I have strong opinions about so many of these topics. I don’t know where to start.
    Why would people abuse oreos like that? Milk and double stuff (not refrigerated actually a tiny bit warm) are the only oreos.
    Pickles on everything please. Not butter those are not pickles lol. A lot of my opinions here are different than little Lorien because I do not like super sweet anything anymore. Example: before I didn’t go to high school in the morning, I would stop and buy a yoohoo and a snickers bar and a pack of cigarettes for my friend. I’m old enough to remember a time when anyone could but cigarettes. Mom sent me all the time.
    What is the plural form of mayonnaise?
    Goodie Girl makes the best thin mints and they are gluten free. I found them at World Market.
    Ketchup is an abomination! Mustard on french fries. We were definitely the weird neighbors. I was one of the only little goth kids in my neighborhood in Baltimore in the 80’s. I also overshare. I had a blast with you ladies today. Thanks

  8. Stefanie Magura says:

    And if I am going to eat things with pickles in them such as potato salad, I prefer savory and not sweet although I will eat the other if it’s what’s available.

    Also I had a burger at a restaurant recently, and the sauce sauce they made tasted like mustard mixed with mayonnaise. This is something I typically eat on burgers, but I had never thought of trying with fries, and it was delicious.

  9. Kris says:

    Peanut butter and lettuce sandwiches! I ate that from grade 9 to 12 every single day at lunch.And the only pickle we ever ate were Stubbs dill pickles. Absolute heaven. And definitely mayo with fries. Very European. My hubby introduced me to it.

  10. lils says:

    Miracle whip. Never mayonnaise.

    Wow. Target website has gluten free Oreos, strawberry frosted donuts, Mint, Carmel coconut, team USA, red velvet, lady Gaga, both peanut butter ones, Java chip, birthday cake, brookie-o, chocolate mars mellow, lemon and chocolate hazelnut.

  11. Crystal F. says:

    Love bread & butter pickles! I can’t go back to sweet now.

    I was telling a best friend about how I sometimes have a peanut butter & pickle sandwich. When she tried to make me feel bad about it, I reminded her that she eats hog maw so don’t lecture me. (We both live in PA, but she’s down in there in the middle of Pennsylvania Dutch country.)

    We ordered some of those strawberry frosted donut Oreos. Talk about disappointment. The lemons are definitely my favorite.

    We were a Peter Pan PB house growing up. Though I remember begging for Skippy on occasion so I could try it. And my parents were like “No, what is WRONG with you”. We’re Jiff now.

  12. Crystal F. says:

    My birthmother said that when she was pregnant with me, she would eat red licorice dipped in ketchup. Like how one eats fries. It would gross out the entire restaurant.

    I love ketchup. (I will proudly die on that hill.) I love the color red. But now I know where my absolute hatred of anything and everything licorice comes from.

  13. Lisa says:

    I’m in northeast Scotland and found the Lady Gaga Oreos in my local supermarket this evening. I had never heard of them before so when I spotted them I just thought of this podcast/stereo. I didn’t even buy them as I don’t like Oreos, but I wanted to share.

  14. SB Sarah says:

    @Lisa: Wow, the Gaga Oreos are in Scotland? That’s really cool!

    Don’t tell Amanda I’m asking, but do you have the Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurry at McDonald’s there? She’s heckin’ jealous that it’s not available here in the US.

  15. Lisa says:

    @SB Sarah I just saw your reply, forgot to hit subscribe. Yes we do have Creme Egg McFlurrys! But alas we’re still in lockdown and my town does not have a McDonalds, so I’m unlikely to get one this year.

    One could always buy creme eggs and ice cream and make one’s own…
