Eating With Little Australia: Tuna Fish Sandwich

Plain old tuna fish sandwich?

BORING.

Tuna with pickled onion and crushed walnuts on Turkish bread roasted sandwich?

NOT BORING.

Ingredients: Turkish bread, one can tuna, mayonnaise, pepper, pickled onions, walnuts, cheese of your choosing (we had a dry, crumbly cheese).


Don't be afraid of the walnuts. They go really well with tuna. You don't need tons of pickled onion—but it doesn't hurt. Plenty of pepper, too.


Turkish bread is the bomb, people.


DO NOT overpower with cheese. Just a light covering.


It's like a disco in here!


Very Important Step: mix extra tuna, pickled onion, and walnuts and eat with a spoon.


After a little while put in the top piece of toast. Put a little mayo on it.


Toast until toasted.


Add chips, eat next to coffee table display of seahsells, driftwood, and shark egg. For the irony.



This has been another episode of "Eating With Little Australia." You are welcome.

Remember: Your tastebuds aren't armed guards protecting your stubborn ideas about food—they're plucky little infants wanting to explore and taste the world! Yes, there are risks involved. And?

ATTENTION WORLD: NSA Scandal About to Fox News's BIGGEST STORY EVER

Details of a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration program that feeds tips to federal agents and then instructs them to alter the investigative trail were published in a manual used by agents of the Internal Revenue Service for two years.
The practice of recreating the investigative trail, highly criticized by former prosecutors and defense lawyers after Reuters reported it this week, is now under review by the Justice Department. Two high-profile Republicans have also raised questions about the procedure.
A 350-word entry in the Internal Revenue Manual instructed agents of the U.S. tax agency to omit any reference to tips supplied by the DEA's Special Operations Division, especially from affidavits, court proceedings or investigative files.
Someone call Steve King!
