Sausage Sandwich (1964) on Sandwiches of History

[@jarathen1625]

"And chopped scallions." Oh good, a touch of class.

[@dsr58]

LOL

[@mr.d6296]

I imagine my grandfather, drunk in 1964, enjoying this sandwich.

[@davemanone3661]

The intro slide always gets me!

[@joshuachapman4280]

That looked horrendous. Excellent plus up

[@TheLepke2011]

My brother-in-law loves canned Vienna sausages. He once offered me one, and looked excited when I agreed to try one. OMG, they're a crime against sausages and humanity.

[@norwoodwildlife9849]

Never thought I would see a sausage sandwich end up in the garbage

[@-Subtle-]

Vienna sausage

[@gypsymama1596]

That entrance, tho!!

[@BuddyBradley1985]

Australia loves a sausage sandwich or “sanga”. It’s basically a grilled beef sausage with grilled onions and either bbq sauce or tomato sauce (ketchup) on white bread that’s folded around the sausage to mimic a hotdog bun. I usually butter the bread first and have it with both bbq sauce, yellow mustard and grilled onions.

[@anunexpectedfire4062]

I loved Vienna sausages when I was a child, then one day I couldn’t handle the texture any more and haven’t had one in 40 years. I agree with your plus up.

[@sbrunner69]

I did too. In south Louisiana we ate cans of them with saltine crackers. I too gave them up long ago.

[@SeattleSoulFan]

I wouldn't say I used to love them, but I think I ate a few of them from time to time. I'm tempted to eat one now to see how I like it, but I suspect that they have too much salt, fat, and nitrites.

[@totallynoteverything1.]

picky eater

[@sweeterthananything]

@@SeattleSoulFan i figure i'll get my sister to try to eat a can with me when my father is dead and gone as they were the only macronutrients he kept on his little sailboat he dragged us onto constantly when we were kids, and it's acceptable enough for making an inside joke out of a sad situation (and sad parenting/living in general) one time. but i was recently considering trying to make a schmancy snack out of some one day, but why would i do that when i can just char up a hot dog like an adult with some choices in life? swallowing 2 of them for a send-off is one thing but if i'm just challenging myself in the kitchen i might as well try to make cat food pate taste good. and there's so many better things to keep around my house for hurricane prep. i'm not personally worried from a health POV but barry's comment on the texture really brought back the whole experience. hell, our grubby hands having often been "washed" in brackish heavily tannic river water probably _improved_ them.

[@BackToTheGame.98]

It's so weird right? I used to love them to. Same with cold hotdogs. When I was a kid, that was my favorite snack. Then at some point the texture just grossed me out too much and I no longer enjoyed them.

[@dazedexpression8039]

The closest thing to this that works is to butterfly a red hot dog wiener, fry it in a skillet until it has a little char (or grill it) and put that on a sandwich that already has smooth peanut butter spread on it. It's very good, the warmth of the hot dog melts the PB a little but not too much.. But it has to be a firm hot dog such as Bryan (before they quit making them).

[@roi3761]

wait , wait , wait……. I had to Immediately rewind to catch that cool backwards floaty slide bringing you into view of the camera ! Pretty nifty ! 😊

[@stationminute]

I haven't had a Vienna sausage sandwich since I was probably 10-years old. And I gotta be honest... now I'm craving one.

[@BELCAN57]

A sandwich that even capers couldn't fix !

[@xavierpaquin]

You're gonna mention capers without the mandatory "pickly pop"? Not on my watch!

[@jerrywood4508]

My brother used to eat peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches when we were kids.

[@ertznay3142]

They're actually pretty tasty. The mayo just makes the PB creamier.

[@inferno232]

Aw man, to each their own on the Vienna Sausages. I could mess up a few cans of those RN.

[@BigRedNZ1]

Love the commitment to the sandwich community

[@IV94704]

I lost it at the mayo PB combo. When the sausage and ketchup hit I cringed and hoped this would not make it to a second bite. Phew.

[@liquid2air]

mayo + PB and something vinegary or hot like a pickle or hot sauce is surprisingly good!

[@jasta07]

A sausage sandwich is pretty much Australia's national dish so I got excited for a sec... wtf was this nightmare.

[@mrzee2720]

Man I love Vienna sausages! On white bread with mayo and ketchup - so good. But 100% respect the texture can be a put off for a lot of folks. And in this case, the other put off would be… peanut butter.

[@Ashanmaril]

Knew where this was going when I saw the video length

[@DoktorRockszo]

That might be the fastest I've seen a sandwich hit the bin since I started watching.

[@XianHu]

Well, you were 100% correct; I did not know where that was going. I thought I had an idea at first, but I was very wrong.

[@GreenManalishiUSA]

Oh man, Barry took one for the team here. Tasting some of those sandwiches is an occupational hazard that comes with making these videos for us to enjoy.

[@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes]

I knew this sandwich was going straight in the trash as soon as I saw the peanut butte being added on top of mayonnaise. I fully expect to see this abomination in the Worst Sandwiches of 2025 video.

[@theoboley]

I was throughly surprised... I was figuring summer sausage or something of the likes... Never in my life would've thought Vienna sausages... And then peanut butter??

[@XMattingly]

Barry Sandwich’s “Dear god, what did I just bite into?!?” look at 0:30 is priceless. 😂

[@AleisterMeowley]

0:25 with that “ok” I just knew this thing was going in the trash

[@FrighteningFrancis]

Hilarious. I loved the sashsay into frame!

[@randomactsofgaming845]

What is with those old recipe books mixing peanut butter and mayo? That just sounds terrible to me

[@donkthelonk]

i thought i knew but i didn't

[@Swedishmafia101MemeCorporation]

SMOOOOTH intro

[@northernbackwoodsman263]

Wow. Better Barry than me.

[@williamharris8367]

Our host is a (much) braver man than me! I was out when the peanut butter was added to the mayonnaise.

[@brandonprescott5525]

Smooth entrance!

[@pl7868]

Another Great Video Thx for It , Really do feel for you trying some of these cause I wouldn't do it 🤣

[@LVVMCMLV]

They must have had some damn good weed back in 1964....

[@Saif-zf9vb]

The 60s was a wild time for culinary arts.

[@Rory-gy3ed]

All that jazz cabbage

[@warriormama67]

As soon as you actually made that and went to actually bite into it, I had to commend you for taking one for the team!!🤣

[@SeattleSoulFan]

I really should make it standard procedure to focus on Barry's face as he takes that first bite. Should I assume that a short running time means a bad sandwich?

[@adampagano5361]

It feels like if these videos are under a minute and a half, the sandwich is getting plussed up to the can.

[@derbymcgurdy]

people get in here fast dang hell yea

[@JMB129]

That facial expression was brutal😂

[@Fevebblefester]

My Father(born in 1913) was the only person I ever knew that willingly ate Vienna sausages. Straight out of the can. 🤮

[@kendrapratt2098]

My mother loves them, along with the ground-up version, potted meat. I had some friends growing up who also loved them. Blech

[@retroblood7125]

Looks fantastic

[@johanvanbeek7138]

I approve of this plus up!

[@Sheepdoggo98]

The 60s were known for trippy things and trippy food.

[@rdawg802]

Knew it was going to be bad as soon as the vienna sausages came out. I remember loving them as a kid, then tried them again a year ago out of nostalgia and came to the same conclusion on their texture. That said, I'd definitely be interested in trying those toppings on a hot dog and seeing if they hold up.

[@Devbelly1]

Alternative recipe - fry or bake two british cumberland sausages, toast the bread and spread it with ketchup, slice the cooked sausages in half and place between the toast, enjoy

[@CraigGrannell]

Alt: the same but with brown sauce vs ketchup. Plus up with some v simple egg mayo.

[@alexanderrow7565]

Maybe if you fried the sausage, toasted the bread, and swapped out the peanut butter with some dijon mustard, it might be more palatable. But yes, as is, looks revolting.

[@Androsynth75]

I am completely convinced that the authors of a lot of these sandwich cookbooks never cooked a day in their life, and just made stuff up on their lunch break while chain smoking cigarettes, because it's obvious that nobody in the room still had a working taste bud.

[@TheLepke2011]

That's the fastest taste-to-garbage transition I've ever seen on this show!😅

[@shlf2615]

When I saw the video was only just over 1 min. I knew the sandwich was going in the bin. LOL Vienna Sausages are nasty!!

[@burtbacarach5034]

When i saw the "Hyena" sausages I KNEW this one was a binner!Ain't NO plussing this one up(unless throwing it in the trash counts as a plus up..)Yuck!

[@jeffw1267]

I love Vienna sausages, but I busted out laughing when you put them in a sandwich. Vienna sausages are meant to be fed to babies, or eaten alone with a toothpick or fork.

[@xanselmox]

Libby's chicken vienna's with crystal hot sauce is fire

[@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes]

Please consider making the morel stuffed grilled cheese sandwich recipe shown in the short 45 second long video titled “Snowy day in the hot tent - Check out full video on my channel!” on the Woodsbound Outdoors channel. It looks delicious and it is historical because the video was posted seven hours ago. 😎

[@vinniemigliano5268]

As soon as I saw the mayonnaise and peanut butter I knew it was headed for the trash.

[@SteveVernon]

I had a tin of Vienna sausages back many years ago when I was a member of the local Militia. It came as part of our ration pack. I'd been marching most of the morning and I was hungry and I did manage to get those slimy little tinned uglies down my throat - but they were horrifying. Yup, no plussing in the word would help those crappy little sausages.

[@electricwizard3000]

Heh heh - sad trombone time!! My grandmother used to occasionally eat a can of Vienna sausages, and at first I loved them as a kid because of that. Then at some point I realized, 'Hm...these are awful' 😅

[@JohnRNewAccountNumber3]

Excellent moonshuffle

[@mikemundy6918]

As soon as I saw the thumbnail I was like that's going to be textural hell

[@kendrapratt2098]

I thought the Viennas would be bad enough. Then I saw it beginning with peanut butter. My mother loves Vienna sausages blech

[@jfu5222]

My wife has been eating them chopped up in Campbell's chicken noodles soup since she was a little girl. Blech indeed!

[@kendrapratt2098]

@ That’s quite unique

[@Tobascodagama]

This is the most "I tried marijuana for the first time and am having my first ever experience with the munchies" sandwich I've seen on this channel so far.

[@wynnmatthews1858]

They must have had bored five year olds coming up with recipes to fill that book. Maybe it was intended for teenage "truth or dare" games back in the day

[@johndayan7126]

With every additional ingredient, I was more horrified. Trashing it was a service to humanity.

[@america1st721]

minus the mayo or with mayo and not PB it is actually very good. This is another sandwich from my college days where I had a can of weenies, bread and peanut butter.

[@QuadeQuick]

As soon as the peanut butter hit the mayo, I knew.

[@SmegulonPrime]

Opportunity for another Red Dwarf inspired sandwich, the sausage and onion gravy sandwich on white bread from Luigi's Fish n Chip Emporium from Time slides Season 3 Episode 5 which also features the banana and crisps sandwich

[@bubzthetroll]

I suspected this would happen when I saw the Vienna sausages in the thumbnail.

[@jalontf2]

Evil Sandwiches of History: ...uh, I'm at a loss

[@SerDayne]

Not even on illustrious Rye would I give that a try....

[@pantone369c]

Oof... I don't know how you could see this recipe and willingly do this to yourself. 😆

[@eltonwild5648]

Do you record a video everyday or batch record on a single day?

[@scooterfowler996]

Good Lord man !!! That was just ATROCIOUS!!! I'm glad you survived it !!!

[@s.williamshay6702]

The sixties was a time to experiment and experience new things...that sandwich was probably really groovy and maybe even far-out.

[@ilznidiotic]

Well, that's just a mouthful of mush.

[@MycroftHolmesJr]

Oh, it's the "Aristocrat" of sandwiches.

[@ChrisEstey]

I wish I'd bet $50 on this one, pretty sure it was headed to the trash! (I love that moment.) Plus it up indeed

[@alexanderd.9460]

😭😂 Looks like a bad plus up of peanut butter on a midwestern child's diabolical creation for lunch.

[@HerrBrutal-bl2fk]

I wonder what decade since the beginning of the 20th century people ate the worst in the Western World. Maybe during the 1960s. There was an (over)abundance of new, processed food products that a) just had left the experimental stage, b) people didn't always know how to use, c) housewifes were more or less brainwashed into relying on, instead of proper cooking methods. During the Great Depression, people were poor but somehow managed to make something edible out of things like hot dogs, potatoes, tomatoes, beans, corn and other inexpensive foods.

[@juneguts]

I love vienna sausages tho so I'd eat this

[@squiggymcsquig6170]

Don't even give it a "2". We can assume there's nutritional value in any sandwich made from food, and if it gets a "2" just because it will keep you alive then nothing can be lower than a "2", unless it's made with shards of glass or a Draino aoli.

[@GTIFabric]

The Nightmare sandwich

[@joshtosh6058]

Try it again after seven beers.

[@Panthersfan2]

Why is it always peanut butter?!

[@lessweet3093]

Correct.

[@Isaac.Eiland-Hall]

I grew up with Vienna sausages - slice in half, mayo and yellow mustard. It's alright. These days I only like the smoked ones. Texture is fine to me. But can understand not liking them. Heh.

[@bandidoucf]

Honestly, the trash might have been a solid plus up at that point lmao.

[@WUStLBear82]

This doesn't seem like at all a good combo, but I actually like Vienna sausages and recently started occasionally eating them again in my dotage because they oddly enough are free from any of the many American food ingredients that now cause me digestive distress.

[@LukeEdward]

Hey, minus the peanut butter, I’ve eaten this! It’s not that bad!

[@fiarandompenaltygeneratorm5044]

What the hell? That thing started the Altadena fire!

[@RancidSpam]

Performing that intro and eating that sandwich both seem like risky business...

[@pavelow235]

The canned food era, not my favorite time in food innovation.

[@familycorvette]

Spoiler: a Vienna sausage ain't nothin' but a hotdog in a can. Weiner means "from Vienna."

[@dbone3356]

I've never had them before, but, surely, they can't be much different than a hot dog, right?

[@roringusanda2837]

😮this was a violation from step 2...just egregious!

[@SpelunkingRaccoon]

When you see the video is one minute long, i think i know where this is going.

[@cherylthompsonsmith1733]

Even before the end all I could think of was the texture. MIGHT be ok if you pan seared those as halves, but I think that misses the point. 86 the VS, add seared spam? Now, how do I at Barry on YT?

[@davemanone3661]

I'm no longer a stoner, but I would eat it, sorry doood!

[@Chevyman3030]

1964 are you okay I know you're depressed & still recovering from WWII but 2025 can help you be more depressed with fancy poor people foods

[@ThomasMartin-v4w]

I just knew it would be a flop... those "sausages" are disgusting on their own lol
