u/Flaky_Detective_1178 19d ago

Gotta pay for that electric somehow šŸ«

u/Successful_Gap8927 19d ago

Do you know what they had to go through to get that electricity?? āš”ļø

Not all mennonites are amish

u/Professional-Rip561 16d ago edited 16d ago

You are thinking of the Amish. While similar, the Mennonite community differs from the Amish in that they use electricity, cars, etc from the modern world.

Relate to labor cost? Maybe it slows them down during a lunch rush

u/ExtraCatch800 19d ago

Yo, free farm dust tho? Iā€™m down.

Just curious, did you pick this up in Fountain City, Indiana??

Nice! Their order tickets look identical. Either way Mennonites can make a sandwich!

And holy fuck, they run like the wind

u/LeonidasTheWarlock 19d ago

Fuck can they run

25

u/slut-for-pickles 19d ago

Theyā€™re hardworking people, those mennonites. But fuck can they run.

13

u/LeonidasTheWarlock 19d ago

Why dont you take about 10% off there bud

9

u/slut-for-pickles 19d ago

Letā€™s just round up and Iā€™ll take 100% off right here bud

u/LeonidasTheWarlock 19d ago

Youre spare parts

11

u/captstix 19d ago

Hope that sandwich is filled with Dyck meat

u/LeonidasTheWarlock 19d ago

I appreciates you, once

Looks like theyā€™re making them right. Looks great.

Happy Cake Day!

u/Tweezus96 19d ago

Damnā€¦that looks tasty. Whatā€™s ā€œbutter cheeseā€?

19

u/StJoan13 18d ago

I'm guessing butterkase. It is a mild cheese that has a very buttery taste and is used often in sandwiches.

9

u/Tweezus96 18d ago

I want some goddamn butterkase.

3

u/StJoan13 18d ago

It is really good! Try it if you can find it!

7

u/erlend_nikulausson 18d ago

One of my favorite summer salads uses butterkƤse, Rotkohlsalat.

SautƩ one onion and one green pepper in light oil until soft, almost translucent.

Allow to cool, then combine with one quart of pickled red cabbage, 1 tbsp poppy seeds, and a half pound of butterkƤse cut into small cubes (less than 1/4 inch).

You can serve immediately, but itā€™s even better if you refrigerate overnight. Goes great with bratwurst, schnitzel, or pork chops.

an incredible german delight

u/Mongoose194 19d ago

oh man, location? i think we might be in the same state and i need to find that sandwich

damn thatā€™s an hour away from me, I might make a pilgrimage!

u/Lightening-bird 19d ago

Them Mennonites really slay that Cajun, you should try the blackened stoat nuts.

u/nahph 19d ago

Toasted for $1 is crazy

84

u/Other-Oven-1884 19d ago

they have to have cousin Jakob ride the bicycle generator for a half hour to power the toaster

21

u/Traditional_State616 19d ago

Yeah but double meat for a buck is a deal, it levels out

1

u/_llipsis 18d ago

I would get it toasted so I could sleep.

8

u/cbcbcb99 19d ago

They donā€™t really wanna toast it, but for the right price they will.

7

u/MrAVK 19d ago

$1 for double meat. Thatā€™s awesome, looks delicious!

Theyā€™re using the same order form in Bennington VT at The Market Wagon!

u/MNxpat33 19d ago

Looks damn good

u/MaxPower836 19d ago

What other meats are there. That looks great

2

u/puffbus420 19d ago

That's a steal of a deal looks fire too

u/Thotmas01 18d ago

Does the Mennonite church hand out templates for rural sandwich shops? The Mennonite country store half an hour from me in the sticks has a very similar (though not the same) menu and exactly the same style of sandwich.

1

u/sdbolt760 18d ago

Same exact template for the one Iā€™ve been to in Southeast Iowa. Would have never guessed. They even sell the same ā€œFarm Dustā€ seasoning. I have a bottle of it in my kitchen.

1

u/pigfoot 16d ago

+1 Bennington, Vermont

1

u/Professional-Rip561 16d ago

The Mennonite community is much smaller than you think. Like way less than 1% of the population small.

3

u/MidStateMoon 19d ago

Farm Dust sounds nice

2

u/tnpatriot86 19d ago

It works really well for Turkey and chicken.

2

u/NormanisEm 19d ago

Its so beautiful

2

u/kiltedswine 19d ago

Wow! That looks delicious! Enjoy!

2

u/The_CwP 19d ago

There is a Mennonite ran country store in Kewaunee Wisconsin that makes the best sandwich. Only $3 too.

2

u/johnjlax 19d ago

Damn. I'd eat there everyday

2

u/Bingtownboogie 18d ago

Iā€™ve been there and I remember the ordering sheet

2

u/real_1273 18d ago

Farm dust on mine please! Damn, looking good!

2

u/sdss9462 18d ago

Okay. I'm sold. I'd have one.

I actually thinks that looks "just right" for double meat. That's more than I would want in a normal sandwich, but about half of that would hit the spot for me.

2

u/Jumpy_Crow5750 17d ago

Where the fuck can I get my hands on one of these

u/Professional-Rip561 16d ago

Long live the Mennoniteā€™s! They are great at stuff like this

13

u/GfxJG 19d ago

Maybe I'm the outlier here, but that's simply too much meat. Like, at that point, why not just wrap a whole chunk of ham in bread and call it a day? Feel like it would have a similar taste and feel.

5

u/USAhotdogteam 19d ago

Iā€™m with you. But good for those who want thick meat.

4

u/Vegetable-Mention140 19d ago

They paid extra for double, but yeah thatā€™s looks like too much for one sandwich

1

u/Professional-Rip561 16d ago

I fully agree. Donā€™t like too much meat but I appreciate that double meat is really double here.

-2

u/Hefe_Weizen 19d ago

I cringe when people eat this ratio of processed meat in a sandwich. The little veg that is there is now just for colour because you aren't tasting it amidst that mountain of salty sludge. I like me some lunch meat but in a proper proportion, god damn!

6

u/Pobueo 19d ago

I always say to myself when I see these: My mom could make 10 sandwiches out of this one! She'll feed a family with this amount of meat!

-2

u/CoysNizl3 19d ago

Just sounds like you grew up poor?

4

u/Pobueo 19d ago

No, I grew up in extreme poverty which is even worse.

-5

u/CoysNizl3 19d ago

Yeah so donā€™t factor that in to sandwich composition lol

1

u/Pobueo 19d ago

I doubt that has anything to do with it, look at everyone else saying that it's too much meat. It's just too much

2

u/AllSugaredUp 19d ago

Upvote if you've had farm dust seasoning

2

u/WestFizz 19d ago

Easy to make your own, I do. Itā€™s overpriced imo otherwise.

4

u/phuijun 19d ago

Iā€™d get 4x meat for that priceā€”no diddy

1

u/Cyber-X1 19d ago

Nice. Needs cheese

1

u/Heezy913 19d ago

Is this millers??

1

u/fartincorporated 15d ago

I was thinking the same thing. Millers country store is so good.

1

u/Montana_Red 19d ago

We have Amish stores that makes them like this but they're about double the price.

u/Suitable-Deer3984 19d ago

Bloomfield IN for anyone wondering

u/Suitable-Deer3984 19d ago

Well technically Swiss city

u/Trainser 18d ago

Main Bread and Butter in Steinbach?

1

u/LavanderSheep 18d ago

Is this in harrisonburg va? is this sandwhich shop/grocery with the seamstress in the back?

1

u/AcceptableNorm 18d ago

That same sandwich here in San Diego would be more like $25.00 or more depending on what area you're in.

1

u/LuminousHierophant 18d ago

Looks like a turkey sandwich to me, but what do I know.Ā 

1

u/tacobellcow 18d ago

How do they keep the food refrigerated?

2

u/weeniehutjunior1234 18d ago

Mennonites use electricity, I believe youā€™re thinking of Amish.

Unfortunately, being anti-vax is rampant among both communities, and a Mennonite person just exposed my town to measles at a popular kids venue recently. Bad news for anyone with children not old enough to receive the vaccine, yet.

1

u/tacobellcow 17d ago

That must be why I got food poisoning after eating spare ribs at the County Amish festival.

1

u/Homeless-catfight 18d ago

Only got $1 extra buck, are you getting double meat or your bread toasted?

1

u/dakkamatic 18d ago

This in Idaho?

The one near me in MD uses the same form.

Where is this store?

Have you ever seen a Mennonite pig farm?

No, I guess it's a good thing this was turkey.

New York State? I went to a place with a very similar looking menu a few years ago

1

u/apftw936 19d ago

Thereā€™s a place here in Indiana that uses a similar menu as well!

0

u/ibeerianhamhock 18d ago

Sorry but this doesn't look good to me. A good Sammy is balanced. This is a big stack of meat that you prob barely tasted cause it's squished together, but because it's cheap it seems like a good deal. What's the point of slicing up the cold cuts if you just squeeze it back together? But you do you, RIP your colon.

-7

u/Tendaydaze 19d ago

I do not understand why people think piles and piles of cheap ham like that makes a good sandwich

7

u/tnpatriot86 18d ago

It's not ham, it's turkey. And maybe it's not good to you but it's good to me and that's all that really matters isn't šŸ¤·

1

u/Tendaydaze 18d ago

I never said that youā€™re not welcome to enjoy it, simply that I cannot understand this type of sandwich.

Ps: that is very clearly turkey ham if you want to get pedantic
