Mustard on the CHEESE?: Idiosyncracies!

pajama · 05-11-2010, 07:41 AM

Yep, cheese goes with the dairy (mayo) and meat with the savory (mustard). The center of the onion slice is discarded and never used, eww. When having a salad in a bowl I make two cuts, turn the bowl a quarter, make two cuts, turn the bowl, etc until I've gone all the way around. I didn't even know I did it until the ex pointed it out. LOL

Me too, never heard of such a thing. I would say ketchup and mayo should go on different sides of the bun/ bread, only because when they mix together they slide and create a mega mess.

Funny....on a plate none of my food can be mixed...the different foods can't even touch each other or I get icked out. BUT on a sandwich...I don't care....mustard can touch cheese, mayo can touch meat...whatever. Odd, never really thought about that before.

Mustard most definitely ON the cheese - I in fact will chunk cheese and dip it into honey or hot mustard as a snack.

Food can not only touch on my plate, I often will make a mound of mashed taters and then spoon peas or corn or what have you veggies on top.

But ketchup must never be on the plate - it has to be in a side dish *g*

when assembling a hamburger, my honey has to put the ketchup on top of the burger, NOT on the bun that wil then rest, on top of the burger. It MUST go on the meat. For me, condiments have an order, mayo, mustard, ketchup, do not vary from this.
I agree about the mashed potatos, but I have to warm the half and half, melt the butter into it, I dont use plain salt, Lawry's season salt is what I like, and dont be trying to sneak anything else in them. You can put what you want in them when they are on YOUR plate! don't even ask me about my fruit phobia!

I don't want my food to touch.

Yes, please put that pasta in a separate bowl. Thanks. Oh, no, I'll help myself and make sure that the green beans don't touch the turkey.

Yes, I know it all winds up in the same place.

No, it doesn't matter that it does, because it is not yet in that place.

And I don't want anything with the same texture as onions or mushrooms anywhere near my plate, either, thank you kindly.

Agrees with you on the sauce on the meat, the bun soaks it up too much so you're left with nothing.
Mash Spuds, use a ricer, makes the mix smooth, melted butter in first then a touch of milk or cream, salt n pepper.,and if you want a treat a good english cheese grated in (this is however not an extra you want if you are having gravy with it)

I actually like mustard ON my cheese. I used to make just mustard and cheese sandwhiches... if they couldn't touch I would be screwed.

I will be back with my own "quirks" because... umm... I have a few

DapperButch · 05-12-2010, 06:55 PM

Actually, it is not about whether or not mustard touches cheese or meat or whatever. It is about how mustard should go between the meats/cheeses and never on the bread to begin with. It soaks into the bread and then you can't taste it.

P.S. So, Gemme, when did mayo vs. miracle whip become such a nonchalant thing? Wasn't it life or death just a few months ago?
