One evening i had the extreme munchies, and low and behold, nearly no food in the house. However, i did discover i had a few things.

Sandwich sliced pickles or wedge pickles
A few slices of Turkey breast
A few slices of bread
A slice of cheese
And Salt and Pepper

I'm looking over what i've got, and decided to wrap the pickles in the turkey breast. Before wraping, add desired amount of salt and pepper. After wraping in turkey breast, then wrap in cheese. If dealing with Sliced sandwich pickles, cut the bread to make sure pickles can fit... If dealing with Wedge pickles, just fold the bread and treat it like a hot dog. You can even add ketchup or mayo... pretty good. Thought of using these as a appetizer or something. One is a light snack, two with chips make a good meal.

That's not a pickle sandwich. When dealing with sandwiches, a condiment simply cannot be the main ingredient of a sandwich when other, more dominant ingredients are present. (Turkey, Cheese, etc.) The sandwich ingredient hierarchy goes:

1. Primary Ingredient (Usually some kind of meat)
2. Primary Ingredient Augmentation (Cheeses, etc.)
3. Solid Condiments (pickles, tomatoes, kraut, etc.)
4. Liquid Condiments (Ketchup, Mustard, misc. Sauces)
5. Seasoning (Salt/Pepper, misc. Spices)

As you remove ingredients, the topmost ingredient is the basis for your sandwich. Therefore, if you have a Ham and Cheese sandwich, and you remove the ham, you have a cheese sandwich. Conversely, if you remove the cheese, you have a ham sandwich. It doesn't matter either way if you remove the mayonnaise, since you have ingredients that are higher up the chain still present. With or without mayonnaise, it's still a ham and cheese sandwich.

You made a modified turkey and cheese sandwich.

You should make a pickledog, like at the Minnesota State Fair.
1 slice ham
sour cream
1 pickle
1 stick

slather ham with sour cream, wrap around pickle. Stab with stick.
Eat.
CAN YOU DIG IT?

Wow, I'm glad there's a sandwich expert here! Where did you get your degree and was it a bachelors or masters?

I'll have you know I hold a doctorate in sandwichology, smartass.

I'd have to disagree with that. When using only ONE slice of turkey and cheese.. it makes the pickle the dominate ingredient by taste.

If you're making a ham and cheese sandwich and your top pops off the mustard while you're squeezing the bottle dropping a huge glob of mustard on the sandwich, the sandwich does not magically change from a ham and cheese sandwich to a mustard sandwich. It becomes a ham and cheese sandwich with far too much mustard.

I'm not disagreeing with that hierarchy, but did you just make that up or is that what Subway taught you or what?

Dood, accipiter. You know I love your asshole nature and all, but it's just a damn sandwich. Leave the little goons alone, my friend.

however, drama on a sammich thread is loltastic.

Years of enjoying sandwiches taught me this. I created the aforementioned hierarchy, but its previous lack of documentation doesn't make it any less valid.

I've never worked for Subway.

Well you better attach your name to that before someone else does, then publish it!
Just imagine the prestige of having something named after you: Victoria Falls, Pike's Peak, Newton's Laws.....Accipiter's Universal Law of Sandwich Nomenclature. Sounds cool eh?

Quite RIGHT! I'm having an utterly FUCKoff kind of day/week and stopped by to dream of some good food and found this entertaining pickle sammich thread drama.

I really thought all you had to eat was a jar of pickles, the heel of a loaf a bread and some other strange things, but no- you had some turkey and cheese- that does NOT a pickle sammich make. I mean I happen to like an inordinate amount of tomato slices on my sammichs, to the point that tomatoes are the majority ingredient on my sammich, but that does not a tomato sammich make.

so lets take your pickles, my tomatoes, the heel of a loaf bread that no one wants to eat, squeeze out the last blob of mustard, sprinkle with some salt and pepper and have ourselves a little FUCKoff™ treat.

Overall... Whatever.

On a side note, i'm in agreement with tc2000... get it published Accipiter.

Pickles have a MUCH stronger flavor than turkey, and they can be sliced thicker.

Though the meat in this sandwich is kind of useless.

Cream Cheese and Cappacola are good with nice dill pickle..

I know this is weird, but the peanut butter and pickle sandwich is tasty. Oscar the Grouch knew what he was talking about.
