They didn’t throw him hard enough

Brown Mustard always Brown Mustard !

Wonder how they do their rum punch

scorned beef

Real men (real cowboys) don’t do pastrami, white bread, or mayonnaise

Said the deli owner with a wry smile.

Try the rye, or the kaiser………

white bread…ick

Pastrami is good. True love is the greatest thing in the world-except for a nice MLT — mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe."

Racist cartoon.

I still miss the best pastrami sandwich place that went out of business when the owners retired and sold the building. In this large city, I’ve tried many competitors, but none measure up.

Not a spaghetti western.

That was deserved.

There’s an old saying that whenever someone eats pastrami on white bread, somewhere a Jew dies.

Pastrami with Mayo on white? Good grief. He deserves to be 86’d!

Is this the frontier deli where Butterfingers Irving shot himself down while twirling his gun around?

Rye or whole wheat with slaw and a pickle.

I would go with a whole grain bread, but not rye. And I DO support using mayo. Mustard makes me want to hurl.
