Egg sandwich

My husband just made me a fried egg sandwich. Without asking he smothered the egg in mayonnaise. AIBU to say this is sodding gross.. Hot egg and mayo!

I couldn’t eat a fried egg sandwich full
stop (the mismatch of unpredictable textures just makes me shudder even thinking about it 🫣) but if I made one for someone else it would be butter, sauce of their choosing and the fried egg. Mayo has no place in it (unless the weirdo in question was choosing it 😂).

Fried eggs with tomato’s and ketchup in a white bread sandwich

Mayo is the “sauce of my choosing”. I don’t like ketchup or brown sauce. We’re all different!

I love mayo, but it goes in a fried bacon sandwich - ideally with lettuce and tomato..

He needs to back to the drawing board:

  • White bread
  • Lashings of butter
  • Fried egg
  • Ketchup

Voila!

Mickeychampionwhatgoodami · 21/04/2025 15:28

Bit of salt on mine , tomato sauce for dw.
Wouldn't cross my mind to use mayo.

Fried eggs with their horrid crispy frilly edges and overdone yolks are dead to me.

A lightly boiled egg mixed with mayonnaise and maybe some cress ? Another matter.

Coffeeishot · 21/04/2025 15:33

Oh I like a frilly edge.

MarxistMags · 21/04/2025 16:01

Just had one earlier, but I switch the egg up, it's like an mini omelette. Then the tomato sauce on top.
An omelette sandwich.

Dontcallmescarface · 21/04/2025 16:07

You mean there are other ways to eat a fried egg sandwich? Egg and mayo in any form is fab.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 21/04/2025 16:14

Yes I like an omelette sandwich too.

He sounds like a man after my own heart, he can make me fried egg sandwiches anytime! 🍳 🍳 🍳 🍳

You'll be telling me next that you don't have mayonnaise on chips!

I LOVE chips dipped in mayo but mayo on a fried egg is all kinds of wrong

Thank goodness, there are at least 3 of us. Nothing wrong with fried egg and mayo!

This is the start of it all OP, it is the script. First he starts making you food that nobody with taste buds would eat and then tells you he never truly knew you. He is gaslighting you with this poison. Fried egg and mayo... i actually churned a little.

Naam · 21/04/2025 16:37

Mayo improves everything including fried eggs

JohnTheRevelator · 21/04/2025 16:47

🤢🤢🤢

LSmiff · 21/04/2025 16:50

I’ve never, got the fried eggs sandwich thing. How bland!

HarryVanderspeigle · 21/04/2025 17:04

Ketchup or chilli chutney are definitely the way to go.

Noughtpercent · 21/04/2025 17:08

Mayo is made with egg. If doesn't not go together.

Getoutasearlyasyoucan · 21/04/2025 17:08

Only one reasonable response: LTB.

Silvertulips · 21/04/2025 17:12

Yuck! He needs so seriously sandwich making lessons - send him back to his mother.

Pancakeflipper · 21/04/2025 17:21

He really hates you.

So sorry OP but it's over.

LSTMS30555 · 21/04/2025 18:11

It's grim putting any sauce on a fried egg sandwich. The yolk is the sauce, a bit of salt maybe but anything else is wrong!

Is his passive aggressive behaviour a common occurrence?
