Cherry cream cheese church sandwhiches

[Medulla Omoplata]

Why are these a thing and how come they are a staple at community events like church dinners and stuff.
Talking bout these:

Sometimes they try and trick you by rolling them up all fancy

I don't think I've ever actually tried one but they look horrible and that's enough for me.

I think this is just a throwback from when people were poor and didn't know how things can taste good.
I think it's just an old people thing?

@Ottawaguy can you help shed some light, this seems like it would be up your alley?

Cherry cream cheese an actual thing or did you make that up?

Second pic looks like spam and piccalilli

You ever have piccalilli?

I would eat a cream cheese turd if offered. Love me some dairy.

actual thing. Big deal in the old people Canada church crowd.

never had piccalilli, looks like it could be good on a veggie dog.

I have been to several church events and even helped organize many and have never seen those before, maybe it’s a regional thing??

The methodist church in here serves a full blown lunch. Haven't been there since 2012.

Switch to Pastafarianism ,you'll get noodles instead of cake, worship a flying spaghetti monster , and get to wear a colander on your head.
Sandwiches will be the least of your problems.

I’ve never seen those. When you say cream cheese, I’m thinking smoked salmon and capers on a toasted bagel.

That's a super popular combo but I've never tried it. I don't like capers or salmon though.

Ever tried smoked eel?

I'm not sure how to feel about this @Medulla Omoplata

This isn't as bad as your banana pizza thread but I dunno...

Do they give them out during the service as the body of christ instead of those wafer things?
Or does the entire congregation bring a few with them and put them on a donation plate that's passed around

no you go into a dimly lit basement with wood panels for walls and give the old lady 5 bucks and then you get a plate of boiled peas and carrots and you can go pick out some of these dry sandwiches with oddly colorful fixings.
Afterwards you can choose from a table of dry cookies or dry cakes.
