I overcame that texture issue about 10 years ago and now love a good tomato sandwich. I have apologized to my mom for this 😂😂.

    Well, I guess you're too young, but my Grandma had nothing but heirloom tomatoes! Didn't go to a store to get a tomato back then. Another thing I "disagree" with you on, is the mayo. Then again, I'm from Jersey. Hellman's mayo was always my favorite. Even after tasting Duke's. Now days, for my tomato sandwiches, I splurge and buy some Kewpie Japanese mayo.
    I guess the nostalgia of tomato juice dripping down your arms is a powerful draw, but I've always gone with heavy mayo on one side. The juices that soak into the bread is a heavenly plus!
    One of the best videos on the humble tomato sandwich, though. Almost everyone else wants to toast crusty sourdough or add insane stuff to a perfect simple tomato sandwich. Thank you!

Just had to come back and add that having that tomato sandwich on fresh baked home-made white bread is even better than any loaf of store bought white bread! I'm going to have to bake another loaf, this one is disappearing fast! 😋😋😅

    Yes! But ONLY when tomatoes are in season. Better if they're warm from the garden. We always used cheap white bread but toasted. Plenty of pepper and salt. The juice will soften the toast anyway. 2 or 3 of those sandwiches is all you need for a meal. But if you were to sneak in a slice of crispy bacon, I'd let you get away with it.

    The first good Red tomato comes in the garden for Grandma and she gets her big tomato sandwich and after that it's a free-for-all grandma will usually share her tomato sandwich but that is kind of let's say right of Summer in my garden. Only after the first ripe tomatoes are you allowed to make fried green tomatoes and the other stuff BLTs but you have to wait on the first ripe one or the first ripe slicer there's usually some cherry tomatoes or something the ripen first so you get a taste it tomatoes but the tomato sandwich is the thing and you did it right although I use a different kind of dressing. I was raised on miracle whip and miracle whip goes on the first tomato sandwich after that I switch back and forth I actually like both I have never got to try dukes yet but I will and I'm sure I'll love it
