Elvis' favourite food

[Unchained Melody]

Hmmm.... it's 11 PM here, so I'm getting hungry again

Here's a nice piece:

Thanks for posting that Albert!

Interesting, everytime I open this thread, I crave a fried peanut butter and banana sandwich

Yes,i'm from the south and us "younguns" would get hungry and Moma would fix us a jelly sandwich or Pb& J . We ate whatever was eatable. Like Gladys probably had bananas and penut butter and it was a quick sweet snack for Elvis as a child. And the rest is history.

He loved steak..Nancy Rooks said they had all kinds of steak all the time at Graceland..

My husband was brought up on peanut butter and banana sandwiches although not fried. His family is from Texas. For some reason it never appealed to me...I like strawberry jam or preserves with my peanut butter. Maybe some day I will try it.

I've just found this video. It made me hungry!

I saw one of Elvis' cooks make the PB/Banana sandwich on David Letterman, and I have to say it made my heart hurt.

She put a half pound of butter in the frying pan to melt

put a whole banana, sliced longwise on the bread and almost a cup of PB on the bread - closed the sandwich

THEN BUTTERED THE BREAD ON THE OUTSIDE

and dropped it in the frying pan

it wasn't fried, so much as deep fried in butter - that sandwich was in butter up to the bottom slice of bread

Letterman looked so green, it was funny.

there was also the Denver place that made the Fool's Gold sandwich

a whole french loaf, jar of peanut butter and a pound of bacon.

Elvis once famously had the Lisa Marie fly there to get one.


I've had PB/Bacon sandwiches, regular bread and a reasonable amount of PB with 3 slices of bacon and it is good.


I also used to get the crepe shop I used to go to make me what I called the Elvis crepe

A crepe with peanut butter and bacon with banana slices - and it was wonderful.

I can't imagine PB and Bacon sandwich. It doesn't sound appealing. If someone made it I'd try it.

I just watched the video that CiBetty uploaded. Thanks. It made me wonder what Elvis's favorite peanut butter brand was. Doesn anyone know?

I am learning to do food that Elvis liked and I'll trie it too.
