Or maybe I should say "bologna". One of my favorites as a kid, and most kids rank baloney sandwiches right up there with hot dogs.

It’s been awhile, but I bought some today.

My favorite way:

Wheat bread
Mayonnaise
2 slices thick baloney (cold)
Lettuce
Tomato
Onion

Sometimes I like a fried baloney sandwich. There’s a deli that makes great fried baloney sandwiches (I haven’t tried but I heard they’re awesome.)

How do you like your baloney sandwich?
 

Sorry this Aussie has never heard of baloney sandwiches ....we used to say baloney to something we didn't believe ( Nonsense)
 
I've lost my taste for bologna - not sure when, but I haven't really wanted it for years now.

Not quite sure how it's made, either - which gives me the creeps ...
 

Baloney, is a lunch meat, also called Jumbo by some people I know. We might get raided by the "Food Police"!:D

Here is a video on how to make a fried bologna sandwich. (like a black man) He calls it a "ghetto 4x4"! If you can overlook the metal spoon used on a non-stick pan and the individual wrapped cheese slices.... it looks good . :):rolleyes:

For awhile I did, too. I usually don't buy 'lunchmeat', Maybe sliced ham sometimes. But I got a taste for baloney last night so I bought some today.

The guy in the video is using packaged cheese food. Ick. and you're supposed to cut the baloney at the sides before frying. (with a spoon...? :rolleyes:)
 
Here in the Uk we also say ''Baloney'' if someone is talking rubbish, but we don't have it here, but we do have lunch meat...and it's vile so I don't think I'd want to try Baloney (balogna) meat!
 
Is it something like our Fritz made from scraps of meat with a cereal base filling ? I look at the fat content? of any prepaired foods .... I'm affraid I keep away from that type of " meats" I'm not a lover of salted meats and only buy corned beef ( silverside you cook yourself) once or twice a year ,I personally prefer a home cooked leg of lamb, which we have a hot roast meal from and use leftovers cold for sandwiches/ salad.
My iPad won't play YouTube , I asked Apple why and they just shrugged and said or is your internet connection slow? I only have wifi so I said yes it is at times they recon that's the problem.
 
I think I had it once or twice as a kid, but my mother didn't buy it as a rule.
These days no lunchmeat or any kind of meat at all.
I will have vegetarian (fake) ham slices which aren't bad, but I don't eat sandwiches much anyway.
 
I only liked bologna sandwiches as a kid, on white bread with mayo, ends cut off. I don't eat it anymore.

My Bologna has a first name,
It's O-S-C-A-R.
My bologna has a second name,
It's M-A-Y-E-R.
Oh I love to eat it everyday,
And if you ask me why, I say,
Cause' Oscar Mayer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A!!!!

Pasteurized Processed Cheese Food-Stuff! :playful: I think I heard somewhere they can't legally call it cheese ... (he said as he munched on a fresh ball of provolone)
 
Another way my Mum used to make it was with a garlic ring of baloney. She cut it up and fried it with potatoes. Very good!

We used to go sailing on the lake. At the marina store we bought a loaf of bread and some sliced baloney.

After sailing for a couple of hours in the fresh air, we were SO hungry, we just slapped the baloney between 2 slices of bread and devoured
them! No butter, mustard, mayo etc. They tasted like food from the finest restaurant in town.
 
When I was a kid we bought it at the store and it had to be cut off the loaf for you. My Dad always had it sliced thick. Cheese came in a wooden box also you could cut it however you wanted it. Put the two together in two slices of fresh white bread and as a kid I loved it. Not so much now.
 
When my children were young I would grind it up, add mustard, mayonnaise, celery, onions and dill relish. They loved it wrapped up in a lettuce leaf. I have not bought it since I watched Zimmerman's Bizarre Foods segment. Yes, it is considered a bizarre food ! ! !

Remember when George Costanza's mom wanted Jerry to take a plate of baloney sandwiches home and give them to people in his apt bldg? :laugh:
 
I don't buy it anymore, but I occasionally get a can of Spam. It's not considered to be a good food, but you can make a fairly tasty sandwich out of it. Add lettuce and tomato and it's pretty respectable..
 
Used to have baloney sandwiches as a kid, too; preferred them with mustard. We used to fry baloney sometimes, I liked the edges crispy. I guess its not eaten as much today.

...At the risk of another raid by the food police, I have used spam with scalloped potatoes and it turned out good. Maybe we need a "Spam Alert"?:D
