In reply to the discussion: It's nearly soup and sammie season! What is your favorite combo? 😋 [View all]KY_EnviroGuy
(14,494 posts)160. Mom did it.
Mama at home in TN always put chopped sweet pickles (I think little sweet gherkins) in tuna and chicken salad, and that stuck with me. I really love the store-bought bread & butter variety (my folks made those then I was a kid).
I like using the Balsamic vinegar in all sorts of dishes to add a little tartness and to help me cut down on salt. Getting older (70 now) has forced me to make dietary adjustments, but I'll find ways to re-calibrate the taste to old-timey with something, LOL.

OMG That sounds delicious! I'd add onions to the sandwich, though, and a dill pickle on the side.

The New York Deli in Boulder Colorado had very good Babka. Their hummus plate was splendid.
