    What about the Italian sandwich?
    Salami
    Capicola or pepperoni
    Lettuce
    Onion
    Tomato
    Red wine vinegar and olive oil sauce or Italian dressing.
    Mayo
    Perfect.

    Here in Singapore there is a sandwich call "Roti John" meaning John's bread. Story goes that the sandwich was invented in the 60s by a Malay hawker near a British airforce base. British servicemen were then called John by the locals. The origional version is eggs beaten with cooked minced meat usually mutton with diced red onions, salt n pepper spread on half a buttered french loaf then pan fried till crispy , served with homemade chili sauce. Nowadays u have different versions in Singapore, Malaysia n Indonesia. Varieties as in tuna, sardines, beef n chicken are use n salads or coleslaw are stack together with sliced cheese, mayonnaise, chili sauce n bbq sauce or cheese sauce. Personally i still prefer the origional version.

    Re: grilled cheese
    A really good one I made was:
    - good quality sourdough bread
    - cheddar cheese
    - garlic & artichoke spread inside the sandwich
    - double decker, so you've got a nice, soft bread as well as a toasty layer
    - cover the frying pan maybe halfway through to partially steam the sandwich/promote melting without burning

    I appreciate your including the bagel and lox on your greatest sandwiches list and congratulate you on knowing that what is often served as lox these days isn’t really because it's smoked rather than brine cured.
    However, despite how common that deception may be, I will never sit silently by when a bagel with smoked salmon is mislabeled “bagel and lox.” This is not just a case of my being a stickler for accuracy, it’s a matter of culinary quality. A bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon is inherently bland, hence the modern practice of adding onions and/or capers. A bagel with cream cheese and actual lox doesn’t need such additions because the saltiness of the lox is strong enough to effectively complement the cream cheese on its own.
    It’s that delicious piquant balance that made the B&L popular in the first place and which a bagel sandwich with delicate smoked salmon can never provide. It saddens me that so many people who falsely think they've tried bagel and lox and probably were unimpressed will never know what they've been missing.

    I prefer a turkey melt to tuna, preferably served open face on sourdough, but the turkey should NOT be smoked! As for cheesesteaks, they always taste better in Philly than in any other place, and I prefer the true original cheese: Cheez Whiz! I prefer my peanut butter sandwiches with banana or honey rather than jelly. You forgot another goodie: the Chicago-style Italian Beef sandwich

    Just thinking about how that kid in the grilled cheese commercial somehow got ketchup all over his face.

    I disagree about the BLT, I like mine with iceberg. And dammit, thanks for reminding me it's been forever since I had a good cheesesteak.
    Bagel and lox is the best, though. I grew up eating them on special occasions, so they're sentimental as well as delicious.

    I live in North Carolina. They do not realize the importance of the cheese here. A philly cheese steak should have plenty of cheese, not little to no cheese.

    Sandwiches are why I can’t go low carb
