Strange though that something like pineapple [ which was also very rare and expensive ] didn't also become a 'sandwich' for the wealthy tea table
Pineapple SandwichI'm pondering on the concept of a pineapple sandwich. Why not? Its a fruit, like the cucumber. Perhaps its for the same reason we don't have orange sandwiches (unless its marmalade) or mango sandwiches (unless the mango is pickled and accompanies cheese or meat). However, pineapple jam has been known to find its way into an occasional sandwich of mine.
Tomatoes, of course, also a fruit, are quite often found in sandwiches.
Ingredients
1 (6 ounce) can pineapple slices
4 slices white bread
Miracle Whip/Cream
