typical sandwich i'd make at my dad's, having learned from him:

- homemade white bread or hearty white storebought
- minced pickled hot peppers

There are whole armies of incredibly motivated and well funded entrepreneurs who are building billion dollar companies to solve problems only Americans have (but think are universal).
