Miracle Whip (which started as a cheaper depression-era substitute) doesn't meet the 65% oil threshold for mayo set by the USFDA, so if the barnyard options are slim and you're looking to grease Weezer, bring out the Hellman's and bring out your best: http://mayodickchronicles.tumblr.com always wear a condiment eggshells, sledgehammers
Yeah, I'll put mayo on most heroes. Mustard on a breaded chicken cutlet, lettuce and tomato hero? Mustard on a BLT? Mustard in tuna salad, chicken salad or egg salad (other than a very small dollop of dijon)? I think not. Having said that, both my new son-in-law and my younger daughter's boyfriend HATE all condiments. They eschew ketchup, mustard, mayo, relish, hot dog onions--all of them--other than hot sauce. _
Hellman's west of the Rockie's (or is it the Mississippi?) is Best's. When my brother was stationed in Hawaii he asked me to send him a case of Hellman's mayo lol. And Boar's Head bologna. _
Close, no cigar. Roast beef gets horseradish cream. A slice of cheddar, some thin sliced vidalia onion and s&p finish it.
You're gonna love it some day when you take some fine veal chops off the grill and they douse them with sriracha.
Not a bad looking sandwich. But why horseradish sauce instead of the real thing? Or better yet, why not a horseradish based mustard? And Give me muenster instead of cheddar. And maybe red onion. Sliced real thin. What kind of bread stuff are we talking about? I'm thinking a nice light rye. I don't eat hero rolls.
What do you put an Italian hero or chicken parmigiana on? I think one of my favorite sangwiches is steamed pastrami on thick cut rye with lots of stone ground mustard. _
Horseradish is a sledgehammer, the sauce is like fine tooling, simple with a little kick. Good roast beef doesn't need the extra flavors of mustard, I'll even have it with just a little butter and s&p on good bread. Good crusty ciabatta works, so does a nice hearty seeded rye. No light, fluffy bread here - go bog or go home.
Couple points. I no longer live in the tri-state area and bread stuffs of every nature are several orders of magnitude less appetizing. Probably warrants its own thread, but this is pretty universally understood by anybody who orders pizza anywhere outside the greater NY area. Hero rolls are the same. I'm also trying to cut out carbs while also maintaining my 12 pack a day habit. So I skip bread almost entirely at this point. Just no reason to do it.
http://www.carbonify.com/carbon-dioxide-levels.htm Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have increased by 28% since 1958 according to annual mean observations at Mauna Loa. Contributors to the rise include generally, human population rise and the industrialization of the third world including China, deforestation at very high levels alongside that population surge as third world countries try to pay for their emergence into industrialization, warming of the oceans as the CO2 accumulates in the atmosphere including acidification of the waters as marine ecosystems die off and are replaced by less efficient carbon sinks, releases of stored carbon from peat bogs and permafrost across the northern subarctic zones as they warm and release carbon that has been stored for hundreds of thousands of years,etc. You cannot separate human activity and global warming because our activities in this area are so pervasive and happen in almost every culture in the world. As an example, legislation to limit the effects of global warming has been tied in knots in the most powerful country on earth for more than two decades now. Industry and the conservative political class have done everything they can to stop intervention in this area. It's just a fact of human life that mitigation of natural disasters is very hard to deal with when there is a large human element involved in the disaster. The Greeks occupied most of Asia Minor in 1,500 BC. That's where the great tales of Greek prehistory were formed. Then farming exacerbated a local climate disaster as an unusually dry and arid period followed the eruptions at Theros in about 1400 BC. The Greeks had been farming those coastal valleys for hundreds of years at that point, maybe as many as a thousand, and the silt from their farming had begun to clog up the shallow fairly weak river mouths that drained into the Black Sea, Aegean and Eastern Med. These rivers were fed by the annual slow melt from the mountains in central Turkey. As the region grew arid the melt was less and less each season and the farmer's silt eventually closed off river mouth after river mouth. The culture was destroyed and we know of it now only because of Homer and the fascination of what we now think of as Greek culture with their forebearers. The lesson for us in this is that the Greeks in Asia Minor were not the main cause of the destruction of their civilization. They didn't know enough about how sediment accumulation in minor shallow river systems works to know that they were inadvertently contributing to the loss of the rivers that was being caused by a volcanic eruption a century earlier that had made the climate unusually dry. However if they hadn't been farming at the levels they were and closing off rivers in the process they probably would have survived the process. We know. If our culture doesn't survive this process that's on us. Our activities are enough to tip things into unsustainability. Every day you hear about another small country somewhere on the equator that is thinking about stripping it's natural forests for some reason or another. What you don't hear is who is the driving force behind that campaign and 9 times out of 10 it is us and not them. Some company somewhere sees a huge profit in taking down the forest and damn the consequences.
There are many areas that were once exposed that are under water at this point. Most of the sea rise that will happen as the result of the end of the last ice age and moving forward has already occurred. We don't know as much about human prehistory as we should because of this. Many of the areas in which people lived are now below the water level and don't draw a lot of attention as a result. I'm not talking the Dogger Bank that used to be above sea level and now lies below the English Channel or northern parts of the Sunda Shelf in coastal Asia. Those areas were above water and habitable only for a fleeting second in geologic time. They had huge ice sheets over them, which then melted, leaving them exposed until the melting raised global sea levels and covered them. However the southern Sunda Shelf, the Black Sea basin, the Persian Gulf, the African and Indian coastal deltas, potentially even significant parts of the Mediterranean coastline, were all above water at some point with burgeoning human populations on them or overflowing from surrounding areas that we know of that were inhabited. All those cultures went under the waves or were dislocated inland by the monumental sea rise that occurred at times over the last several glacial cycles. The difference now is that one heavily populated area that is under threat, like Southern Florida, can have more people living in it than were alive on earth 24 thousand years ago. So much smaller rises in the remaining sea level "cap" will have much larger effects on people. The current consensus on global sea rise is probably wrong. It is probably much too conservative, and it will likely rise several times over the next few decades. We're probably looking at 9 feet of global sea rise by 2100. That is going to absolutely swamp the majority of the world's largest cities and it will either be extremely expensive to deal with or will result in the abandonment of places like Miami and Charleston. It's most likely that we will see a combination of the two plans with some very low lying areas abandoned and others diked to try to control the rise, a plan that will fail during 100 year storms.
