The Best Lunch

I requested Cari to purchase a specific lunch meat last week. After hearing what it was that I wanted, her response was, "yuck!" The next ten minutes was spent convincing her this lunch meat is one of the best. It was almost to the point that if I wanted it, I'd have to make that purchase myself.

She really was that repulsed by it. She finally backed down and came home with some meat for a great sandwich.

Olive Loaf : A blend of pork and beef that is formed into a fine textured loaf. Whole pimento stuffed olives are added to the blend of pork and beef for added flavor. After the loaf is formed the meat is cooked. The loaf is sliced thin and used for luncheon meat.

Bologna is OK. Olive loaf is like high class Bologna. A co-worker asked, "What kind of sandwich is that? Bologna?" I stood up tall and lifted my head a bit to answer. "Nope. It's olive loaf.", I said with pride.

His response, "Blech!"

"Meredith, do you want me to make you an olive loaf sandwich?"She asked what it was and I showed her. After looking at it she said, "Can I have something else?"
