I agree completely that rye bread and tuna-something are a match made in taste-bud heaven. At least to MY buds. Trust me, though, when I say I could not find rye bread, peanut butter, and sweet jelly or honey, to work for me. I just have a knack for that kind of thing.
Ha...yes, I thought the same about UK being represented by the chip butty!
But then saw that London gets to be defined by a pork roast roll (far better).
What sandwich do you think better represents US?
Wonder how they decided on what gets shown...
I think every American kid at one time has had a P&B sandwich. Either for lunch at home or in their lunch bag. They don't spoil and are great to take on picnics. Also, tuna fish, egg salad are both staples for the American child's diet.
But for the last decade or longer, the lobster has taken first place. They presented a rather bland rendition of it. Diced celery, onion with mayo and large chunks of lobster served in a New England type hot dog roll. And it is not only in Massachusetts. You will find this delicacy all through N.E. Specially in Maine. But very pricey!!!

I also have to have rye for tuna and egg salad sandwiches, and I love it just toasted with eggs in the morning. Another one I have to have is a good whole wheat - my fave for peanut butter and honey. I just LOVE bread and can't imagine going without. Since it's just me here, I have to freeze them and just pull off a few slices when I need them.

If you're referring to the slideshow in the delicious-looking link that creative shared, it wasn't a survey, but a display of the different sandwiches that are popular in certain countries, or sections of a country. Just an article written for general information. New York got a hoagie, while the U.S. was mentioned as PB&J sandwiches being popular. Since New England is known for their lobsters, they decided to associate that sandwich with the region.
You can have your lobster and clams. I love me some lake perch, although I've always been a fan of shrimp and crab. Of course I'd love crab - my zodiac sign is Cancer. Go back and look at the survey and then read my post again. The whole survey was wrong. Or the title was. Sandwiches around the world? That covered more of the U.S. than the world. This is a huge country. Too large to name just one sandwich to represent all of us.

So am I Andy. But once again this thread has turned into an "Let's attack Addie." That's okay. My skin is thick. Go to it folks!
