I still refuse to make the “cool sandwich” again
petersterne.com Peter Sterne @petersterne.com · 7d
It's me. I'm the husband who wants the cool sandwich. web.archive.org/web/20250820...

(screenshot from @emilyjoshu.bsky.social's article on eating like Elvis)
I went lighter on breakfast the next day so I'd actually be hungry for lunch, which was reserved for Elvis's signature sandwich: bacon, peanut butter and banana on white bread, fried in butter. Personally I think these are ingredients that should never go together, let alone be fried in butter, but King's orders. Dubbed the 'Fool's Gold Loaf,' Elvis reportedly loved the concoction so much he required his personal chef to have one on standby at all times. According to the recipe I used, the sandwich adds up to 1,000 calories, most of which come from bacon and peanut butter. Peanut butter is rich in protein and fiber, but it's also highly calorific, at around 80 calories per tablespoon, and easy to overdo. This meal had me seriously questioning Elvis's taste buds. The softness of the fried banana with crispy bacon for me was a sensory nightmare, and the two drastically different tastes, especially when fried in butter, made me regret every bite. My husband, on the other hand, still won't shut up about the sandwich. 'When are we having the cool sandwich again?' he asked as I sat down to write this. After lamenting that I refused to make it again, he said: 'It was like a sweet grilled cheese with bacon. I thought it was very good, and I would have it again.'

Journalism is just replacing “sorry my mom said no” with “sorry my editor said no” at the slightest inconvenience

I’m at a NJ Devils game and it’s an absolute bloodbath. The Blues scored in the first 10 seconds of the game! After the first period, the score is 3-0 Blues.
