Joe mentioned that New York's Carnegie Deli was
planning to honor Jerry Springer with his own
sandwich on their menu. Our friends at TV Squad picked up the story and ferreted out
the ingredients in the sandwich. So, what's in it? It looks like Sarah was the closest of the commenters in her guess of
"tongue and
cheese." The official sandwich has "pastrami, tongue, baloney, Swiss Cheese and Russian
dressing."
Maybe "honor" is the wrong word, given the contents of the sandwich. Adding the tongue and baloney as ingredients are a nice touch, so why don't we just say that they're trying to make him memorable.
Whether that's a good or bad thing - either the sandwich or the show - is up to you.
