So very interesting. This is the lunch of Heidi in the Swiss mountains. The quintessential French lunch (sans pickles), and what we all think of as a quick Italian bite, too. Hmmm. So, I have been eating this all my life and never knew what it was called!<br />:)<br />I love learning new things like this.

There is also something called a trencherman's lunch but I have no idea what it is or how it differs from a plowman's lunch.

No two lunches are alike, but they are always the perfect thing to get a person through the day. That and the pint, of course. ;-)Livin Localhttp://livinlocal.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567715590164266982.post-51402719712185254272010-06-07T07:21:20.074-07:002010-06-07T07:21:20.074-07:00What a great summer lunch!
