Would you dare to try a DZER sammich?

When I was a kid, I wasn't all that picky of an eater. Yes, there were somethings I totally wouldn't eat (lima beans, peas, mixed vegetables, beans and stew, primarily), but there also were a lot of things some people wouldn't dream of eating.

As anyone who has paid attention knows, I'm a big fan of sammiches. Not sandwiches, but sammiches. I like all kinds, from burgers to heroes to subs to Dagwoods. Hot sammiches, grilled sammiches, toasted sammiches. When I'm at fancy Sunday brunches and there is bread available, I make sammiches. Sometimes it's just cheese on a roll, but usually there's meat — whether it's a cold cut or a main course that I stuffed into bread.

I like trying new sammiches, new combinations of bread and meat and cheese and even vegetables (on rare occasions).

This was especially true as a kid. My brother James and I tried a lot of combinations, always trying to outdo each others.

The one that I stuck with for years was this one: Peanut Butter and French's Yellow Mustard on White Bread — the DZER sammich. Oh yes, I'm aware that it sounds VERY gross and nasty. But you know what? It tastes pretty good. At least it did when I was growing up. Plus, it was a CHEAP sammich to boot; always good when you have four brothers and sisters and your dad is only and Air Force master sergeant and your mom is pretty much a stay-at-home mom picking up a few extra bucks with sewing done.

So ... you got the moxie to try it? Go ahead ... what will it hurt? If you hate it after one bite, you can toss it.

So, that's my big sammich invention. What sammich, or other food for that matter, did you invent when you were a kid? Feel free to share. :)
