Over the past year or so, I’ve had some interesting sandwiches, and here they are collected in one blog post:

The Fat Magnum at Fat Sandwich Company. Please don’t tell me how many calories are in this sandwich, because I’ve now eaten it … twice. It is an eight-inch roll with a double cheeseburger, chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, bacon, eggs, french fries, mayo and ketchup. Despite an unlikely combination of ingredients, it’s actually really good, especially with a beer.

The Bobbie at Capriotti’s. I received a coupon in the mail to try it, which was a good idea since I don’t know if I would have spent money on a sandwich that came with turkey, cranberry sauce and stuffing, but boy, was I pleasantly surprised. I usually don’t mix sweet and salty, but the flavors in this popular item were perfectly balanced, and I definitely would recommend it to anyone.

The Aloha Slider at Fit Fresh Cuisine. Again, here’s my hesitation of combining sweet and salty–this burger had a slice of pineapple on it, plus a slightly spicy sauce.  But it was delivered to me while I was a judge for Taste of Madison, and I was impressed. The nice kick that you get as you bite in sealed the deal for me. (You still won’t catch me adding pineapple to pizza, though.)
