It's a Jewish thing When I worked in London, for a long time it was for a Jewish company; a lot of the sandwich bars around were Jewish too. Egg and (spring) onion, chopped up in mayo or salad cream was always on the list. I've had it, it is nice once in a while, and sometimes add finely chopped celery too, and a tiny touch of French mustard
When I came round from my lumpectomy, the nurse asked me If I wanted something to eat
Nurse - would you like something to eat Me -yes please-nurse disappears Nurse - I think we might have a sandwich Me -that would be great-nurse disappears Nurse - it's egg me - lovely-nurse disappears Nurse - its brown bread me -thats fine-nurse disappears Nurse - it's egg and tomato Me - through gritted teeth - anything is fine. I was almost prepared to get the flipping thing myself
and I can still remember eating that egg sandwich, it was heavenly
