Results: 6 Weird Sandwiches People Used To Eat - Part 2 of 3
John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, reportedly asked for beef between bread during a card game in 1762 to avoid stopping for food. This led to the sandwich's popularity in Europe and America, with many recipes in cookbooks over the years. Some old sandwiches have become less popular due to unusual ingredients. In this series we'll take a look at 6 rather unusual sandwiches. There is only one question... Would you eat this sandwich? History Facts is my source for this series.

Pickle Sandwich. This one's actually a bit of a misnomer. Yes, there are (chopped) pickles in here, but the instructions in 1916's Salads, Sandwiches and Chafing Dish Recipes also call for mixing the brined vegetable with whipped cream, mayonnaise, and grated horseradish, and adding chopped cooked beef to the mixture atop buttered bread. Would you eat this sandwich?

Popcorn Sandwich. Popcorn is a popular snack, so why not pair these bite-sized goodies with yummy buttered toast to produce an extra-delectable dish? That seems to have been the idea behind the recipe in 1909's Up-to-Date Sandwich Book, except the dish also calls for readers to add "five boned sardines, a dash of Worcestershire, and enough tomato catsup to form a paste." Would you eat this sandwich?
Yes
