Mmmm…Fried Bologna (232/365)

“If you are writing about baloney, don't try to make it Cornish hen, because that is the worst kind of baloney there is. Just make it darned good baloney.”

Leo Burnett (Pioneer American advertising Executive, 1891-1971)

TIME:  1:52 PM
PLACE:  The Beltline and 17th St.
SUBJECT:  Hardee’s sign

My cousin, Kathleen, called me this morning and said that she saw this sign and just had to let me know about it.  When she told me what Hardee’s was now serving, I had to laugh.  A fried bologna sandwich was a childhood staple of ours.  I still get a craving for one every once in awhile and have introduced my kids to its joys.  I can’t believe that our hoosier lunch has gone mainstream.  Kat and I wondered if when they fry it, do they fry it until the middle rises up and the bologna slice looks like a little hat in the pan?  Do they serve it with Fritos on the side?  I just might have to try this fast-food delight!

(I didn’t get to take any “redos” today for the kid’s 1st day pictures – it was gloomy again this morning…  stupid weather!)

Both my late DH and my current DH liked/likes fried bologna sandwiches. I'd never heard of them until I married my first husband.

I haven't had a fried bologna sandwich since I was a kid.
