An Unpleasant Surprise at MOS

We headed to MOS for breakfast. Last time we were here, MOS didn’t serve breakfast and, as with most burger places, I don’t really care for the breakfast menu. My stomach can’t tell time, I’d rather have a burger than an egg & bacon sandwich or something similar.

Nonetheless, the serve breakfast now and Michelle wanted a ham and egg sandwich, so we decided to go try them.

I ordered a tonkatsu sandwich, Irene ordered a shrimp sandwich and James had the ham & egg sandwich. Little Miss I-Want-Ham-And-Egg opted to have a hot dog instead.

I was displeased with the breakfast for two reasons – they were all cold sandwiches. Luckily for me, my sandwich didn’t have egg on it. I wouldn’t give $0.02 for all the cold egg in the world. The second reason was that each sandwich was really only half a sandwich, that is each one was on one slice of toasted (yet refrigerated) bread, cut in half. it tasted alright, but it wasn’t enough breakfast by a long shot.

James wasn’t too happy with his sandwich, either. For some reason, he wouldn’t eat the ham or egg, and after a couple bites of the toast, declared it “icky” and wouldn’t eat anymore. Good thing, too. Irene ate the piece of bread she was trying to feed him and said, “I know this seems impossible, but there’s peanut butter on this ham & egg sandwich.”

James is allergic (mildly, thankfully) to peanuts. He was already breaking out in a rash on his face.

In what circle of Dante’s Inferno did some condemned chef come up with the idea of putting peanut butter on a ham & egg sandwich? Or was that why he was there in the first place?

The rash faded about 30 minutes to an hour later. Lesson learned, though. Never trust any restaurant not to sneak peanuts in somewhere inappropriate.
