Actually, a Muffuletta would have been a more appropriate sandwich selection for NO...a sub is a sun no matter the name.

A muffuletta wins hands down.

A link if you don't know what it is.

I thought about putting muffalata down as the choice, but then I thought that the po boy was just more identified with New Orleans.

OK, but WTF is a Sugar Cream Pie? It is the "State Desert" or something of Indiana, but it sounds sickening sweet.

It's actually quite delicious. It tastes a lot like tiramisu.

1/3 cup flour

1 1/2 cups sugar

1/2 tsp salt

2 1/2 cups heavy cream

2 tsp vanilla

1 TBSP butter

1 unbaked pie shell

Blend together sugar, flour and salt. Stir in cream, vanilla, and butter. Pour thoroughly beaten mixture into unbaked pie shell. Bake 10 minutes at 450 degrees and then at 325 degrees for 35 minutes. Bake until the consistency of thick pudding then chill overnight. Sprinkle with nutmeg if desired.
