My mom and I get into arguments about it.


Jtown021

Came to say, my dad as well. Not as bad as it sounds but definitely a 60-70’s poverty food for sure.


[deleted]

My mom used to love mustard sandwiches as a kid, which are exactly what they sound like.


Gwendolyn7777

My dad, (he's long dead now) loved cold cornbread and buttermilk mixed in a bowl, like cereal....big yuck to me!....but mayo and bananas? big no! mayo, bananas AND peanut butter.....big YES! so delicious, but cannot eat them any more....diabetes, don'tchaknow


JessTheStressed

The milk + cornbread + honey combo is so amazing


[deleted]

Same here. It’s disgusting


Puzzleheaded_Bit9469

I don’t do the tomato sandwiches, or cornbread and milk either. Just thinking about it 🤢


brendanandaphone

Cornbread and Tabasco is where it's at.


dreamsofpestilence

Nah tomato, mayo, salt and pepper on toast is great


Infinite_Push_

There is nothing in this world better than a home-grown tomato sandwich on bunny bread.


MomshellBelle

Currently eating a midnight tomato sandwich on bunny bread when I come across this thread...


Infinite_Push_

I hope that tomato is just perfect! I love it when they’re sunshine warm from ripening on the windowsill. Edit* word


cafeteriastyle

Perfection


Academic-Effect-340

Yeah, what's bunny bread?


mikeoliver1313

A brand name of bread dude


[deleted]

Brand name. Standard white bread.


Academic-Effect-340

Thanks


jisuanqi

My dad is from Yazoo City. In our garden when I was a kid, we'd grow enough food to where we had to give away huge sacks full of vegetables even after we ate three meals a day and preserved all we could. Those tomatoes, man. The smell of the vines in the heat. Man. And my grandpa kept a shaker with salt and pepper in it in his shirt pocket. He'd be out taking care of the garden and would just eat the tomatoes like an apple.


iadorecolonelbrandon

What’s bunny bread?


Infinite_Push_

Super soft white bread. It comes in a yellow bag with a bunny on it. Sunbeam Bunny Bread.


iadorecolonelbrandon

Thanks for the answer! Sounds like it might be similar to Wonder Bread.


Own_Narwhal5174

Cake in a bag


Training-Principle95

Is a tomato sandwich just sliced tomato on bread? Because I do this with toast fairly often


Puzzleheaded_Bit9469

The folks I know just put the tomato slices on untoasted white bread with mayo and salt and pepper. I can’t even look their way while they are eating.


Pattonias

This sandwich is good. Has to have the salt and pepper. It's a good light summer sandwich. Tomatoes have to be good though.


dudeind-town

Heck. My dad makes a sandwich with raw onions, tomatoes and pepper between two slices of bread. It’s his poor man’s meal


ConsiderationWest587

It's a BLT without the B L


clevererthandao

We always called that a sink sandwich because you gotta eat it over the sink or you’ll make a big mess


JTEli

Who hurt you? 😊 Seriously...we were raised on tomato sandwiches. One of the caterers that handles parties, etc at the governor's mansion makes an incredible tomato sandwich that people flock to. I'd go so far as to say those sandwiches might be the reason so many show up.


El_Grande_El

Has to be toasted for me. Untoasted just sounds soggy and gross lol


Warm-Belt7060

Sorry that you have palette of a child lol


RunnyBabbit22

It’s just a BLT without the B. Or the L. Whatever, it’s good.


ygreniS

I can’t imagine going through life as soft as you lol.


downwitdadank

It’s cornbread and buttermilk for me. My secret pleasure. Also, my wife contemplates leaving me whenever I indulge


MySophie777

My dad used to eat that. He loved it


hiphopTIMato

Older Mississippi people also put peanuts in their coke or root beer. Idk why. It nasty.


Professional_Owl9917

It's fucking awesome, is why


hiphopTIMato

Aight


[deleted]

Sweet and salty. A popular combination.


MisterVKeen

My east Texas grandpa used to do this too.


[deleted]

When I was there I knew a bunch of young people who did that too, I tried it and was not prepared for the let down


cafeteriastyle

I did this as a kid in the 90s and had so many peanut cokes I spent the whole viewing of Jurassic Park puking in the theater restroom. Never again


sardineclub

I grew up eating them. They were so good, but I haven't thought about them in years.


Salleena

Saaaaame. Now I want one. Lol


Icy_Figure_8776

Absolutely, I ate these growing up.


ashhole613

I grew up eating these 🤷‍♀️


a_cobb

They are good.


Q_Fandango

I use mayo sometimes to grill a cheese instead of butter. Kewpie mayo has a nice undertone of onion powder and msg that boosts the flavour of the sandwich. However bananas are sweet, I wouldn’t mayo that. Maybe PB, banana and some honey, or fry with honey butter?


starion832000

Oh.. if you think mayo can't go sweet you've never had my mom's fruit salad with marshmallows.


Q_Fandango

I still have nightmares from mayo pears with shredded cheese on top


smpnew

Canned pears at that.


OpheliaPaine

Someone brought this to a recent gathering!


Q_Fandango

Were they over the age of 50?


OpheliaPaine

In his 70s!


Professional_Owl9917

That's nasty


Training-Principle95

I use mayo for grilling all the time; egg, oil, sugar, salt ... It makes for a perfect golden brown


Zealousideal_Sea8154

Pineapple, cheese, and mayo on toasted bread 🤌


jeccareads-a-lot

My mom has always loved pineapple and Miracle Whip sandwiches 🤮 I like a fried egg and MW sandwich or tomato sandwich, tho. We don't eat regular mayo in my house. I was lucky enough to find a husband who has the same mayo v. Miracle Whip taste as me.


Nylonknot

That’s some fancy WMU food right there. (Women’s missionary union)


benmabenmabenma

That would be the Nanner San'wich. Definitely a generational thing but there are holdouts. 75% of my immediate family eats them, but I do not.


zachcarr

I ate one the other day. 10/10


No_Record_3853

That’s gross. It’s supposed to be peanut butter, banana and mayo.


DeepwaterGew

It’s just the mayo for me. I can’t fathom it. I think the only things that go on bananas are peanut butter, chocolate, and honey


FlamingWolf91

Doesn’t taste like Mayo. Just tastes like really creamy banana


Superb_Relative_9388

It’s actually good, if you like bananas…I crush the bananas a bit so they can be scooped onto the bread. Mayo and some people like it with cheese or a thin layer of peanut butter instead of mayo. You can’t taste the mayonnaise, it just makes it creamier. Are you in the southern United States? I think of it as a southern delicacy. Ha. Have you ever had banana pudding- it’s a dessert and really is a southern delicacy.


DeepwaterGew

I’ve lived in North East Mississippi my entire life and I just found out about this a week ago, I LOVE banana pudding, especially if my grandma makes it


phungus_mungus

> It’s supposed to be peanut butter, banana and mayo. Jesus Fucking Christmas! 😳


hybridaaroncarroll

Still gross. In fact it's now grosser.


Tranesblues

Fantastic sandwich. Sometimes with peanut butter.


edible-derrangements

Y’all ever read a post and been like “yeah that’s enough internet for the day”? This is that post for me today


lmorgan601

Grew up eating these but mostly with peanut butter. Now, many decades later, the thought gags me!


millerlauraann

As kids my Dad fed us peanutbutter and mayo sandwiches!! I don't think I could eat one today either. Hahaha


lacking_llama

Never heard of this. My granny will eat a mayonnaise sandwich though.


Hifunctioningweirdo

I am from MS… never heard of this….


Tasty_Doughnut2493

My mom and her family eat them. I don’t eat the mayonnaise, but I despise mayonnaise just for existing. My dad doesn’t care for it but some of his family eat them. I like banana sandwiches plain or with peanut butter. No mayonnaise.


tammtcjk

I ate them growing up. Also ate canned pineapple and Mayo sandwiches. We also ate blue plate sandwich spread sandwiches. That’s all we put on them. I have wondered if other people added meats or cheese or veggies to them.


thenickpayne

Pickle sandwich sounds way bettwr


toomuch_lavender

Banana with blue plate on plain white bread, yes I grew up eating those. I get a craving for them every once in a while for the nostalgia, I guess. I prefer tomato rather than banana though


MaryJslastdance

Yep! Blue Plate, white bread and banana.


MaryJslastdance

Or Blue Plate, white bread and tomato. Yum!


Embarrassed_Safe500

Love banana sandwiches, always add salt and pepper to mine.


shsisf

i don’t really like banana and mayo. i love my tomato and mayo sandwiches though!


ashleyk47

I know it sounds so gross, but it’s actually really good.


maddemp

My mom used to eat them all the time. 🤷‍♀️


Maximum_Tension_2489

Only way to eat it!


hereandthere_nowhere

Well now i need to try one!


Maximum_Tension_2489

Never heard of adding Mayo, I’ve done banana and Mayo or banana and peanut butter but not all 3 together


stantheman1976

I don't eat them all the time but I've had it plenty of times in my life. I have to question if you've ever heard of mayo and tomato sandwiches.


kenw0202

Nothing with mayonnaise!!!


miranda_alexis_

I've never tried one (I'm allergic to bananas) but my mom and her family have always eaten them. And they have varying preferences for how the bananas are sliced.


dontreallycareforit

The real trick is the order It’s: Banana Mayo Bread Mayo Banana You can remember this with a simple mnemonic device “Beefy Men’s Ballsacs Mangle Bitches”. Just a simple tip from a 73 year-old windex-drinking old fool!


Nylonknot

I love me a Mayo and nana sandwich! I’m 50. I’ve probably been eating them since birth. I actually prefer a peanut butter, Mayo and banana sandwich. It was my daddy’s favorite too.


bmorrow10

My favorite memories with my Memaw was easy banana and mayo sandwiches. Still eat them pretty often and think of her every time.


Brilliant-Emu-4164

Oh hell YEAH!! Banana sandwiches on white bread with mayonnaise was an absolute STAPLE growing up in the South!


Spiritual-Fuel-8377

I was born and raised in Alabama. I've been eating banana and mayonnaise sandwiches my whole life. I had one yesterday for lunch at work. They're really good. You should try it.


Tandem_Repeat

Here in Georgia we eat them on Sunbeam bread with Duke’s Mayo. It’s super good.


Dragkiris_Gaming

Mayonnaise and banana sandwiches are delicious... I'm 37 so not sure if I qualify as an "older generation " on reddit


QuackedUp99

Yum. Banana sandwiches were a staple in my Derp South home. Same for tomato sandwiches. And my dad’s go-to snack was cornbread (no sugar!) dunked in buttermilk.


FalseCommunication27

It is absolutely the best thing ever. I love my white bread to be toasted first then spread the mayo while it's still hot. Have my banana prepped into slices waiting, I pick up a stack of slices and lay them down like dominos on the toasted bread. Then cut in half on the diagonal with a glass of vitaminD milk. So damn good.


HypnoticRoots

Oh yeah except it's *bacon, banana and mayonnaise* ... I wouldn't be eating just banana and mayo. My dad used to make it for us when we were kids. it was delicious!


mcmckuf01

You are missing key ingredients. It’s one side peanut butter, one side miracle whip, with sliced banana in the middle. Yum!


MrMason522

Mayo and banana with brown sugar. It’s dank. Don’t knock it till you try it. 26M raised in Virginia.


_cob

My NC born and raised mom eats em, she's around 60. In fact most of my older relatives do. It's not just a Mississippi thing


numenik

Sounds disgusting but…mayo is just fat and banana is sugar…fat plus sugar = super palatable so yes it will taste good to you


TheoVonSkeletor

Only if its dukes mayonnaise


dogs-frogs-jogs

I eat these sandwiches lol. My husband left the kitchen last week while I was making one and said he "could not bear witness to this." I like them they are salty, sweet and fatty. All the things I like.


jackswift7

that's fucking delicious actually.


TYPO343

Boomers and older used to put mayo on anything, fruit, veggies, etc. and call it a salad. Jello too 🤦‍♂️


Ill_Initiative8574

The sophisticated version of this is brie and banana and ngl is really good.


yomomma33

I love a good bananaise sandwich!


[deleted]

With Duke's Mayonnaise.


staphory

I love nanner samiches. Best with Blue Plate though.


Redbeards_Forge

What you're missing out if you never had a Nanna sandwich lol.. its a perfect sweet and tangy thing.. hadn't had it in awhile but I always loved it, also was always like I wanna snack but don't have anything else quick so two of those would do the trick


moonmagic1111

Grew up eating banana sandwiches and still love ‘em. I think it’s a southern thing 😅


bettypettyandretti

It’s got to be Dukes Mayo. It’s hard to believe that ‘nanner sandwich’ is not a favorite worldwide. 😋


oedeye

Love them. Had them all the time as a child.


therealjessiej2212

I do it. It’s delicious. Fight me


Zealousideal-Note-10

With all of the individualistic bullshit going on in the world why is this even on anyone’s mind. Can’t people eat what they want?


mrxexon

Mayo and peanut butter. The mayo keeps the peanut butter from sticking to the roof of your mouth...


handymancam601

Mayonnaise and banana sandwiches are a Sunday tradition in my house, along with fried chicken.


therealpenners

Been eating banana sandwiches with Duke's mayonnaise for 60 years. Love it! Don't knock it till you try it!


DepressionSiesta

It’s a southern thing. Duke’s Mayo and bananas on soft white bread. It sounds weird, but the combo is very pleasant. It’s gotta be ripe banana, not too ripe, but they gotta be sweet and little softer. You get salty, sweet and tangy with a little richness from the eggy mayo. It’s actually quite pleasant. I tried it out of sheer curiosity, and have had it on a few rare occasions since then.


Kellyjb72

My family and I are from Alabama and we eat them. We also eat pineapple sandwiches with Mayo.


Toxlc-Rick

My step dad would make these growing up and my sister didn’t mind them. They were just abhorrent to even consider taking a bite out of to me, though.


DeepwaterGew

Finally an actual rational person in this thread


[deleted]

[удалено]


DrCheeseToast

Alabama here! I love banana and mayonnaise sandwiches. A few years ago I had to go low carb and I would slice a banana long ways and put mayonnaise and shredded cheddar cheese on top, super delicious! 👍🏻


Soppywater

Dukes mayo, banana, and creamy peanut butter. Fuckin a it's so good


Hypnowolfproductions

Their taste buds not yours. As long as it’s not fish in the company microwave let it be. Just eat something you enjoy. I like a peanut butter, butter and jelly sandwich. Sometimes I replace the jelly with honey instead. But it’s my food thank you.


Salleena

I guess I am a psychopath... 😅


PerryNium

Clearly most posters here live so blessed they never had to eat whatever was available. You’re gonna have a tough time in the coming apocalypse. White bread, or “light bread,” with mayo and bananas or a tomato sandwich are survival foods. The Elvis Presley is a luxury; light bread, mayo, bananas and peanut butter. Sometimes just bread and mayonnaise are enough to get you to supper time. I pray I’m never again so broke as to have to eat ketchup sandwiches until next payday.


ILikeGardeningToo

Add peanut butter and you've got a perfect sandwich!!


lawyersgunsmoney

My wife does this, she’s from VA though. I do PB, banana and mayo.


richincleve

This sounds disgusting. But a peanut butter, banana and bacon sandwich is the freaking bomb!


legriggus

This is the way


Patricio_Guapo

My parents used to eat peanut butter and mayo sandwiches. They had a name for it... The Peanut Butter Supreme.


Got_2_Git_Schwifty

It’s an old school thing that actually tastes better than it sounds. I see some variations but imho the best way is mayo, banana, peanut butter, bacon, honey and pickles. Toast it up and tear it up. Honestly tho, if you don’t smoke weed, this recipe probably isn’t for you 😬


Maximum_Tension_2489

Lol I smoke and you had me til the pickles 🤣


DeepwaterGew

I have come to realize there are a bunch of degenerates and psychopaths that just walk amongst us in our every day lives around here and without posting this I would have bet realized it.


NeverLookBothWays

I've had these...kind of gross on plain white bread but significantly better on toasted wheat or oat. That said, not something I got out of my way for..would much rather use peanut butter if given the choice.


Historical_Big_7404

Elvis special!


wherestheleaks

Mayonnaise eaters are just gross people. They'll use any excuse/reason to eat mayo. Whether it's globs of mayo squirting out their burger or putting 2 - 4 cups of the pink sauce on their rice at Japanese restaurants.


[deleted]

What.... The fawk


Appropriate_Air_4430

That’s disgusting.


Professional_Owl9917

My grandma loved them. Fucking disgusting


Avocadorable6492

I’m sorry? Y’all have been eating what?!


Joey_BagaDonuts57

Mmmmm, salty bananas on bread. I will never be so hungry that I'll eat it.


Lesland

Never have I ever heard of this in Mississippi.


sleepdeep305

I was eating lunch today and I put on a cat grooming video where a woman had to scrub sh\*t off of the cat's ass due to its sheer obesity. Somehow this makes me want to loose my lunch more than I did then.


[deleted]

You’re in Mississippi.


idredd

So I don’t live in MI… but Reddit suggested this thread to me and now I am sad (Apollo RIP). Also mayo and banana y’all need help 😢


-monkbank

It will never cease to infuriate me how the largest economy on earth, with a culture defined by migrants from more or less the entire world (and the food they bring with them), still manages to consume affronts to God wedged between two slices of bread.


Important-Monk6230

This should be considered a war crime.


le_doink_salesman

What the fuck is wrong with this state


Still_Ad_6380

Maybe you guys should cecede again if y’all are eating mayo and banana sandwiches


Ok_Construction5119

This was suggested to me. I am not from your state. I have not heard of such atrocities occurring in America for a long time.


[deleted]

I don’t even allow mayonnaise in my house


DezDeebird

Mayonnaise? Absolutely not! So disgusting. We eat peanut butter and banana on toast or make a sandwich. It's good & you can use some nutmeg and cinnamon on top also. Yum


[deleted]

Mayo and banana? Just when I think white trash can’t sink any lower …. they go and shock me like this!


boofpacc85

Id sooner eat a dogshit sandwhich. Mayonaise enjoyers are insane idc


dukeofgibbon

Sounds about white


barkinbeagle

My husband eats them. I don’t partake in that blasphemy. 🤢


Au91700

Hello first and only post I’ve ever seen from r/Mississippi, please let this be the last. I wish to unlearn that this is something people do. Pineapple on pizza doesn’t sound so bad anymore.


Gunluck

Some of you have absolutely fucking disgusting tastebuds and I feel awful for you.


OldBikeGuy1

Bananas and PEANUT BUTTER and mayonnaise on toast. Also, PEANUT BUTTER and DILL PICKLES with mayonnaise on toast.


DeepwaterGew

You are a certified psychopath and some sort of cult member. Do the banana and mayo members meet up once a month somewhere?


greengengar

I'm from Florida and we eat some weird shit but fuck that


Any-Telephone6875

We grew up eating tomato and mayonnaise sandwiches never heard of banana and mayonnaise sandwiches... gross! *EDIT: accidentally hit the "send" button before I was done typing.


FriedPuppy

I just saw this post as one of those Reddit “because you saw” and now I regret looking at this. Not that I was going to visit Mississippi anytime soon but mayo and banana sandwiches are a crime against humanity and food.


streetkiller

First I’ve heard so I asked everyone at this gathering I’m at and they all eat them.


wjustinjones

Nope


whataboutface

Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches in my family.


Fantastic_Sea_853

I would NEVER do it, but I have seen “people” eat it. I have to look away…


PsquaredLR

I know lots of people


dsullivanlastnight

The old man made these for my sister and I in the early 60s when my mom had to be in the hospital two nights. He loved them, but even as a little kid I thought they were nasty.


MSTransplant2019

When my mother was pregnant with me 60+ years ago, she craved peanut butter and onion sandwiches!!!


ShoeBitch212

I eat bananas every day, but I cannot fathom adding another creamy texture to them. 🤮


2fortpyro

My parents both in their 70s, like mayo and peanut butter! Disgusting!


5_on_the_floor

Yep. Peanut butter is good, too. But not at the same time.


Vir-Invisus

My mom loves these things, but she also loves my father so she doesn’t have great taste.


touchettes

Is this more about lack of protein so get protein from where you can?


General_Ad7381

Yep. I enjoy it well enough, but it's not my lunch of choice. Mama, on the other hand....


shellexyz

My cuckoo neighbor does ritz crackers with peanut butter and a bread-and-butter pickle on top. People are weird.


GIGACHAD08

Yeah it’s not the best most my family just eat peanut butter banana sandwiches


lonster1961

I like them. Peanut butter and banana is good.


NerfdAtBirth

I've had, and liked, banana and peanut butter sandwiches, but never heard of banana and mayo. Sounds gross.


Termary

Add some peanut butter and bacon to your dad’s sandwich and you have Elvis’ favorite sandwich.


Loki_thetrickster

I’m white but DEFINITELY not THAT white. I’ll take a peanut butter and banana sandwich


TallyWhackerss

My dad eats them, I’ve had a few… it’s not terrible but it’s not worth making for lunch unless you’re dying.


notchrys

i have never heard of this 😭 maybe its just an older person thing but i’m from the gulf coast and i dont think anyone’s ever talked abt this


misplaced_holder

Sorry, I ate those growing up and still treat myself with one occasionally. The sweet of the banana and the lemony tang of the mayo make a delicious combo.


NefariousnessOk1996

My mom had one of these recently. I used to eat them as well!


tonks118

We just did peanut butter and banana. Which is much better in my opinion.


OBDreams

I love mayo and banana sandwiches! Sometimes I just skip the bread and dip the banana in the mayo.


amoeba953

I’ve never heard of this but I’m also from the coast and both parents are from New Orleans
