I've fallen in love with Cooper cheese. Can't get enough of that stuff. I have to make sure they slice it thick, because otherwise it's a pain to separate the slices if they're too thin.
That sounds delicious! I'll be sure to try it.I enjoy a breakfast sandwich on whole grain bread with butter, berry or grape jelly, an over easy egg, bacon and cheddar. Like everything in a big breakfast, all contained in the sammy.
I feel like the classic grilled cheese is too plain... but with bacon, oregano, and tomato that does sound pretty good.I just realized nobody mentioned the classic grilled cheese. I love one of those, either plain or with bacon or tomato and oregano.
I had a soft shell crab po’boy In New Orleans like 20 years ago, and it was ca-ray-zee good.Crawfish Po’boys.
I’ll spoon it out like it’s ice cream.All this sandwich talk reminded me of this stuff my mom would get us once in a while if we begged, we used to love it but have not had it in years, it's called Goober and as far as I know they still make it.

And maybe someone has mentioned already but what about fluffer nutters?
Goober Grape?!?!?!?? Yes, yes, yes!!! They do still make it, and I should really get it more often. I first came across that stuff up north when I was a kid, and when I came back to Florida, my mom told me we couldn't get it here. Idk if it really was only in New York when I was a kid, but Publix carries it now. Love it!!! There's just something about that extra stiff PB and extra sticky jelly. Never even wanted to try the strawberry variety. Grape is where it's at!All this sandwich talk reminded me of this stuff my mom would get us once in a while if we begged, we used to love it but have not had it in years, it's called Goober and as far as I know they still make it.

I don't think any jams or jellies are as good as the homemade stuff we make.
Homemade is the bestI don't think any jams or jellies are as good as the homemade stuff we make.
That sounds like heaven. I loooove apple pie! Would you mind sharing your recipe? If not here, then perhaps on the cooking thread.I love homemade jams and jellies too. I will be making blueberry jam, maybe this weekend. In the fall I make an apple jam called "apple pie in a jar". It is an amazing recipe!
Oh Man, I LOVE tomatoes. I won't eat pasta without a good rich tomato sauce. I grow them and popping a whole cherry tomato in your mouth and grinding it up is SO GOOD. I eat just plain tomato sandwiches on toast with mayo.Mmmm... a good ol' grilled cheese with American is tasty. I would never ruin it or any other yummy sandwich with tomatoes though.![]()
I love ketchup and pasta sauce, but I'm not a fan of tomatoes. I'm the only one in my family that doesn't. My dad and sister get tomatoes out of the garden and eat them like apples.Oh Man, I LOVE tomatoes. I won't eat pasta without a good rich tomato sauce.

Yes, I too agree that nothing's better than homemade, (though Goober still has its place.)

I like schezwan sauce coz it brings great flavour in a sandwich
Yuk But hey, that doesn't mean there's no place for them. I make a pretty good tomato sauce myself... and cook it for about 8 hours to be sure all raw flavor is gone. Lol, also, to make it rich, thick and tasty.Oh Man, I LOVE tomatoes. I won't eat pasta without a good rich tomato sauce.

What bout u?
Wow! How lovely of you to take the time to write that out for us. Thank you so much. Unfortunately, I'm personally ill-equipped for making jam at present, but this recipe will go in the notebook for someday. I have a real love for homemade jams and have made it a bunch of times with family. Rest assured that your time wasn't wasted... I have a real love for apple pie too! Fall is my favorite flavor, lol. I will make your recipe as soon as I have the chance. Thanks again!Here ya go Stella,
Apple Pie In A Jar
3/4 c raisins or dried cranberries (I use a combo of golden raisins and dried cranberries
6 c chopped Granny Smith or other tart apples, peeled and cored
juice and zest of 1 lemon
1 c unsweetened apple juice
1 pkg. (1.75 oz) regular powdered fruit pectin
9 c sugar
1 t cinnamon
1/2 t ground nutmeg
1) Prepare canner, jars and lids
2) Finely chop raisins and or dried cranberries
3) In a lg. stainless steel sauce pan combine apple, lemon juice and zest & apple juice. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and boil gently until apples begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in pectin until dissolved. Add raisins and or cranberries.
4) Return to high heat and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Add sugar all at once and return to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Boil hard and stir for 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in cinnamon and spices. SkI'm off any foam.
5) Ladle hot jam into hot prepared jars, leaving 1/4" headspace. Remove any air bubble sand adjust headspace if necessary.. Wipe rI'm of jar and top with prepared lid and screw on band until finger-tip tight.
6) Place jars in canner, ensuring they are completely covered with water. Bring to a full boil and process for 10 minutes. Remove canner lid and wait 5 minutes. Remove jars, cool & store.
Recipe says it will make about 6 8 oz jars of jam but I always get more. I use Crispins or a combination of Crispins and Granny Smith apples. I just think Crispins have a more complex flavor, that's why I prefer them. But whatever apple you use make sure it is a very tart variety. Hope you enjoy this jam recipe! It is wonderful for many different uses.
