Polish breakfast sandwich
Me: I am going to have to take a picture of this sandwich.
Prussian bride: That is going to cause a huge problem.
Me: But it’s THE SANDWICH PARTY this weekend!
PB: You don’t understand what a huge problem this is going to cause.
The Polish breakfast sandwich is essentially a sandwich much like many other sandwiches. It happens to be prepared and eaten at the breakfast hour, more or less. The essential difference between the Polish breakfast sandwich and your average sandwich obtained at, say, a well-stocked delicatessen, lies in the far broader choice of preserved meats available in your average Polish home and therefore as options for your Polish breakfast sandwich.
Within moments of consuming this particular Polish breakfast sandwich, just one of many such sandwiches to be discussed, constructed, and eaten since we arrived in Pomerania a few days ago, I was offered a half kilo of pickled herring, which, while tempting, might have been going a bit too far.
Maybe tomorrow.
