    Ham Banana Rolls, I decided that someone should make a sacrifice. For Science. And after all, it’s ONE BANANA. How much could it cost? Ten dollars?

    Mise en place! texastweeter it says in the copy to use a slightly green-tipped banana. I wanted to make an American cheese sauce at 7AM like I wanted a hole in my head, but SCIENCE.

    There was no leftover cheese sauce in the pan, but I made more than enough. Doesn’t this look great!

    No pussyfootin’, let’s cut right to the chase. Let’s get that bite right from the middle, where banana meets mustard meets ham meets American cheese sauce.

    And what would your mom say? “YOU CLEAN THAT PLATE! There are starving children who would love to have that!”

    No, there aren’t. Not after they tasted it.

    This was disgusting. There is no surprise here, no “Wow! I didn’t expect that!” Nothing goes with the banana. Not the cheese, not the ham, not the mustard. It was all a big pain in the ass, making everything way more complicated than it should be, and delaying breakfast by 45 minutes. Four hours later and my stomach is all scrambled by this.

    On the other hand, SCIENCE!

      You’ve lost a lot of your appetite, it was disgusting, and you still cleaned your plate? Mom would be very proud unless you fed it to the dog, which is how I tried to get rid of my lima beans.

        😄 It’s my only meal until 6pm. I had the Cheerios at hand, but I had sunken cost in this. It was against my better judgement, and it was a bet I lost.

        Did you put a bow on this "Salute to the 70's" dinner by serving your guests Tang Pie?https://www.thespruceeats.com/tang-pie-recipe-3058618

          My liege....

          You are the hero we need, not the hero we deserve!

          One of my colleagues teaches a course on mid-20th century Americana as done through advertising and media and I am so sending him this.

            I'm not so sure, Jim. Robust conclusions from research do require independent verification.

            Jim White I suggest you verify. Present this to your wife as dinner (or dessert?) tonight, and let us know the results!

            Hey, I'll do it soon so you don't have to suffer alone. I'll go with a green green banana.

              I’ll be interested in your results!

              Notice the mustard in the photo: I couldn’t tell if it was yellow or brown, and I chose yellow. See what you think. I’m not going to try it again with brown mustard, my stomach is still churning.

              Found the orignal recipe and article


              Like many, my first reaction to this recipe was repulsion. The appearance of ham, bananas, mustard and cheese on a single recipe card doesn’t immediately seem like a winning combination. But consider that bananas and ham often appear together in recipes of the Pacific and Caribbean. Much like pineapple, bananas represented adventure and far-off exotic places […]

              Excellent! I’ll be interested to read what it’s like with the green banana.

            As a guy who's spent a good bit of time doing R&D for a job and in the kitchen, I salute you, sir.

            Vile, disgusting, and utterly beyond the pale. The best ideas are often birthed from bad ones, but I feel confident that there will be nothing good come from this. You may proudly take your place with all who have gone before and shown the world that there really are DUMB ideas.

                He’s come a long way since “Schools Out”. And I thought I was aging poorly!

              Years ago while out fishing in the high sierras, I might jump in the water. No matter how cold it was, if anyone asked the answer was come on in, the water is fine!

              Thanks for not taking that road.
