That's just it though, you take a basic sandwhich with it's staple ingredients and from there the customer can fine tune it.I hear you. Ultimately, if you are paying someone for a sandwich it should have what you want and only what you want. Who am to judge someone for not liking pickles? For me, it is bell peppers. If I have a Cheese steak, it has to be Texas style with jalapenos instead of bell peppers (preferably fresh, grilled jalapenos). Bell peppers just don't like me for some reason. To a Philly traditionalist, I would probably go to sandwich Hades for that.
Personally don't care for bell peppers myself.
The one that really screws myself up when ordering is corned beef on rye, swiss cheese only (toasted of course).
For some reason, poeple don't understand all a Rueben (SP?) is corned beef, swiss cheese, russian dressing and sauerkraut. I ask for corned beef on rye with swiss cheese toasted, and they look at me like I'm from outter space. I say "Rueben, hold the dressing and Kraut" and they understand that.
