An alternative that we tried one period between xmas and new year was cheese sandwiches, quartered, dippled in herby scrambled egg and shallow fried in olive oil. nicer than it sounds actually! hmmmm condensed milk sandwiches, almost on par with sugar puff sandwiches. “why don’t you…” has a lot to answer for. there’s the “bread doughnut” - jam sandwiches, quartered and dipped in scrambled eggs, shallow fried in butter, then dipped in sugar.

Never tried it on a sandwich, though. I like simple sandwiches. Thick bread, preferably sourdough, and a single filling, like crisp bacon or leftover turkey. I love chocolate sandwiches - french bread with squares of chocolate . Brazilian friends taught me to appreciate condensed milk in the form of brigadeirao. Never tried it on a sandwich, though.

Salted potato chips, slightly crushed, between 2 slices of bread. I'm pleased to report that he has grown out of this phase. My Dad used to eat Marmite on toast. ~shudder~ Does that count?

I would definitely have those in a sandwich! Ah now Anji, do you mean carottes rapées, the ones in a jar of vinegar? I would definitely have those in a sandwich!

My mum had a friend at school who used to eat cake sandwiches. Sardine and grated carrot sandwiches were on the menu for me this lunchtime. I’ve heard of condensed milk sandwiches too.

I could quite fancy a lasagne sandwich though, shame it freezes so well and there's no excuse to spread it over a nice warm ciabatta... Stroppy, eeeeuw! Except for the chestnut purée, I've tried that a few times and loved it. Thanks for the Bakers Complete tip Murphy, if it gives you such a beautiful coat then it must be good! I switched a while back to the Tesco Value kibble and serve it with a selection of offal (liver, kidneys, etc.) all cooked and frozen in handy little tupperwares for my beloved mutt.

Easy. We also used to suck the condensed milk straight out of the tube (and sweetened chestnut puree too) The bread butter and ovalitne… spread the butter, put a spoonful of ovalitne on top then slightly tip and tap the slice of bread so the powder covers the whole slice, it sticks slightly to the butter.

I can't imagine it on bread. As far as sandwiches, we have a family joke. No matter what is leftover for dinner, Eo says, "That'd be good on a sandwich tomorrow." Lasagne sandwich?? No, I don't think so. But, the Earl of Sandwich thought it was a good way to tote your meal around, so anything goes. That sweetened condensed milk is used to make key lime pies and creamy fudge.

And of course you can come for a nice big roast - although methinks you'd prefer your mum's :-) David, you’ve reminded me that a Belgian friend of mine loved nothing better than a slice of thick toasted bread lathered with maple syrup (topped with lashings of cream at weekends) which I guess is no more odd than scones and jam.
