[QUOTE=senior citizen;1005005]Actually, it was a Lenten or meatless Friday sandwich.I know plenty of non Italians who enjoyed it. Nowadays, it "might" be considered vegetarian as per the green peppers. Don't knock it till you've tried it.QUOTE]


As a non-Italian, I always liked pepper and egg sandwiches. The mothers of all my Italian friends kept me well fed. However, those who were not as fortunate as I with many Italian friends had no clue about that sandwich. It was almost like a well-kept secret. As a child, it had nothing to do with Lent or not eating meat on Friday; it was made all the time.
