I woke up one fine morning, about a week from today and was filled with a most unusual craving for peanut butter. Normal people would quell this urge by simply having toast and peanut butter, or a PB&J (I hate that I just type that...). But not this guy. This guy wants to be bold, he wants to be bizarre and he wants to push the very limits of what people consider to be a acceptable flavor combination.
This is the result. I admit to googling peanut butter sandwiches and finding the mayonnaise idea as a result. The spinach and onion bagel however are all me.
What was the taste like? Here's where things get tricky. I think I may have a palate problem brewing here. I don't seem to dislike anything. With the exception of things that are 1) rotting, 2) really crappy quality or 3) poisonous. I'll eat whatever it is and most of the time, even if the flavors are really poorly paired and off the wall insane, I enjoy it. The simple fact that I've never had mayo and peanut butter together is enough to get me excited. So. Did I enjoy this? Yes. I ate it all and with a fair amount of pleasure.
But here's the real question. Would I make this again? No. Even though I enjoyed it as an oddity it was not a well crafted sandwich. There's simply too many other amazing things that could have been done.
In closing, life is too short to not mess around with food. However if I had been hit by a bus after eating this there's a lot of other things I would have rather had as a last meal.
