As a Southerner I can tell you that tomatoes and mayonnaise on white bread are actually a separate food group.

The best summer sandwich (tomato)

For as long as I can remember I have been in love with tomatoes. One of my favorite early memories is of picking a warm tomato off the plant in my father's garden and eating it right there.

As a Southerner I can tell you that tomatoes and mayonnaise on white bread are practically their own food group. I’ve eaten a supply of them that I could probably use for a lifetime. Most of the time I like them just the way they are: three simple perfect ingredients. But every now and then I give the classic a little upgrade by stirring homemade pesto into the mayonnaise and it transforms the humble sandwich into something extraordinary.
