I don't understand sandwiches like this. What is the point of packing it so full of garbage that you can't eat it like a sandwich. The minute I have to pick up a fork or spoon means it's no longer a fucking sandwich and therefore loses like half its value

So much this. It's not even like this is a sloppy Joe. This is presented as a burger. It doesn't even look appetizing to me.

At a lot of BBQ places, if you order a sandwich it’s literally just a small normal slice of white bread with the same amount of meat sitting on top of it as you would get from a “platter” option. I’ve had a real pulled pork sandwich before, and it was a actual sandwich you could pick up with your hands. What you have given me is a crime against common decency and language.

Especially when the juices from everything makes the bun soggy before you can eat it.

That's what we used emulsified sauces for (in addition to flavoring) when I was working in kitchens. Mayo for instance is a tasty sauce, but it'll also prevent the bread from absorbing moisture from the other fillings.

I have the same issues with hot dogs. Why is the dog bigger than the bun, plus if you add a bunch of toppings then they can spill out.

I would wait a moment for it to cool a little and then eat it.

And be frustrated with the stupid Mac ans cheese dripping out

You don't eat mac and cheese with your hands?

I’d probably just pull the bun off and eat the rest with a fork. Looks like mac n cheese and pulled pork? Both delicious things

Take the mac n cheese off it and I'd be happier. It also isn't a burger. It's a pulled pork sandwich.

Here's a card with all my healt info and my family doc number. Just in case, tell my family I love them.

Revel in my luck that I was born in the right century to experience such a thing

Earlier centuries it didn't exist

Later centuries it will inevitably be outlawed

I would get a fork and a knife and just start eating by cutting little pieces of bread from the bun and onto my fork alongside everything else.
