Well I have to say these sandwiches were probably about as "interesting" to make as they were to eat. Though I'm glad I did - I was so intrigued as soon as I read about them. (I really want someone to make the flaming hot dog Sterno lettuce phenomenon.) I have to admit I was little surprised at how much work went into this dish. I think it took me approximately two hours to get them all just right. Maybe I'm slow or maybe the cutting and spreading and whatnot was just really time consuming. I can't imagine anyone happily putting that much effort into something that produces such a result. (More than once at least.) What an "appetizer." I found out quickly that straight-up cream cheese does not make for very frostable frosting and tuna fish and whipped cream do not have the most sweet-smelling odor after a while. Even pineapple couldn't really save the day. (Though I happily sneaked a few bites of the tropified whipped cream.) All in all, I think it's fun to try strange combinations and give your tastebuds a run for their money. And it's nice to have the privilege to play with your food.
(It was great making them in the dorm kitchen though - I was able to gross out a variety of people. Someone even tried a sandwich - even with me being too compassionate to not tell them what was in it first. Which was probably for the best - for my sake and theirs.)
