The Bobbie from Capriotti's - $13.00

430 Eden Square Shopping Center, Bear, DE - (302)832-8132


The "Bobbie" sandwich is essentially Thanksgiving in a sandwich - it's pulled turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and mayonnaise slathered inside a long roll.

Less than two years ago, the price was $10.50 for the same 20" sandwich. At that price, I still found a way to visit every couple weeks (Mind you, Capriotti's only accepts cash and debit, and I don't have an ATM or debit card or a local bank which makes it pretty difficult to scrounge up enough cash to buy one of these things, so every couple weeks is saying a lot). But nowadays, I go about once every other month.

A couple pointers to keep in mind: 1) Make sure to eat the entire thing in one sitting or else the leftovers will get pretty soggy from the mayo & cranberry sauce and 2) it's recommended to have a clear schedule after ordering this because all that turkey will put you right to sleep.

And yes, they have smaller sizes - $6.75 for the 9" and $8.50 for the 12" - but I'm pretty sure those are only meant for women and children... and maybe wimpy men.
