In addition to the
@Paulie suggestion of Mortadella or other's suggestions of Balogna
my mom made sandwiches with
Olive Loaf which is basically a Balogna meat mixed
with chopped green olives and pimentos. Sometimes a slice of "American" cheese was added.
Many times condiments like mustard, mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, pickles.... the bread back
in the day was very soft highly processed white bread, brand name
Wonder Bread.
Ahhhh... the memories.

Quote from: Paulie on March 10, 2026, 11:45:13 PMMom made fried bologna sandwiches when I was a kid. I loved them. So much better than a regular bologna sandwich. We also had mortadella sandwiches when I was young. Both with mustard and mayo on the super highly processed white bread. I was never one for any of that square yellow stuff wrapped in plastic that they call American Cheese. 😝
I'm not sure I could bring myself to eat one now days. 😝
