If you thought I meant something other than I found this, and May’s reaction, the funniest part of the video, you have the wrong end of the stick. My only question is, which white wine would you serve with this sandwich? Inquiring minds from California want to know.

[@bigrandomun9267]

Even as a 90's/2000's kid, I ate pretty much everything James has put on this series, from crisp butties to peanut butter sandwiches. It's not a Generation Z thing to not do all this, but it is a shame to think that James will see Lucy as a representation of Gen Z.

[@ParappatheRapper]

I mean everyone is different too. I was born 1990 and I have seen The Battle of Britain and my tastes and dress mirror James more than Lucy. I will say also I was brought up in the Midwest so being stuck in the past is sort of our prerogative. I took a lot of my taste from that upbringing, but also broke away from a lot of it as well. I think it brings a lot of advantages and older people take to me far better than most of my generation, which is advantageous for me.

[@arthurfine4284]

It's more of a social class thing than a Generation Z thing. James mentions that Lucy is more posh, and the fact she usually eats takeaways is indicative of how she doesn't have to worry about money. Meanwhile, a working class family will have to make every single cent count, which means being creative with what foods they can afford.

[@HistoricBlock84]

People give Lucy too much hate just because she doesn't fit into the same group as middle aged men. They just need to accept that she has different opinions on food and respect it.

Egg food poisoning is no joke, and egg salad sandwiches are bottom tier lunch items

This is still my favorite sandwich. Perhaps it is because I am almost 80 years old. I live in Canada, but grew up in the Netherlands. I make it with Mayo or Miracle whip. I then add either chopped Onion or Chives in season. When purchased from commercial establishments, they tend to use chopped Celery.

[@gideonmele1556]

It would be mine too, if it wasn’t so infrequently that I get myself organised enough to cook eggs ahead of time.

I don't know what Miracle whip is. It isn't available in the UK. Also we don't say mayo as that name is reserved for a DJ called Simon or a county in Ireland. Onions or chives sounds good.

[@matsmikaelnordlander]

Since the guessing was on what was in that spread, I hade to look it up. Wikipedia goes: Heinz Sandwich Spread is a blend of salad cream and relish popular in the Netherlands and Britain. It is classified by the manufacturer as a sauce or relish. The relish ingredients are carrots, celery, gherkins, red peppers and mustard in a finely diced spreadable form. Main ingredient: Salad cream.

[@helvete983]

We have something similar in Sweden but it is sold in tubes, but tastes as close to Heinz as I've tasted when I can't get the real thing.
