Would You Eat This Fried Egg and Fries Sandwich?

June 26, 2008

I'm a fan of breakfast sandwiches, even big ones, but this overstuffed fried egg and french fry creation from Pittsburgh's famed Primanti Bros. might be too huge for me to handle. Still, I'd be willing to try! Would you undertake this slaw- and tomato-adorned egg sandwich?

I would if it weren't for the burnt fries and the ugly presentation.

If they scrambled the egg before making the sandwich that would be much better. I can't do yolk separate from white - makes me gag!

If it weren't for the fries and grease.

This is heaven after a night out drinking in Pittsburgh. Everyone goes to Primanti's after the bar here!

Once you figure out the physics of actually getting them into your mouth, Primanti's sandwiches are awesome.

Nope. Ew. I'm trying to eat healthy but even if I was allowing myself to indulge, it wouldn't be in that!

mmmm I knew it was Primanti's as soon as the pic loaded. Only thing is, I prefer the meats, I would usually get salami. I went to school in Pittsburgh and we'd go there a few times a year. They have one on the CMU campus now????

Maybe I'll make the trip to SF just to gobble this down.

I'd definitely try it, but I think I'd prefer the pastrami.

I wouldn't eat it alone but I'd try it if my hubby bought it. I'm not a fan of thick fries and these look too thick. I don't like to taste the potato or the consistency of them.

It's far thicker than what I'd cobble together for a breakfast sandwich, but I'd totally try to eat that.

Not my normal meal, but what the heck. Looks like a good "morning after" cure.

That looks like some great hangover food.

Giordano Bro. in San Francisco makes those. I haven't had the one with the egg on it, but I think they look and sound delicious, and will most likely ruin my arteries.
