sandwich spread

Bread's moist layer

Sandwich spread is a soft, spreadable mixture used as a filling or condiment in sandwiches.

It typically combines mayonnaise with finely chopped vegetables, pickles, or relishes: She made egg salad with sandwich spread instead of plain mayo.

The term also covers any paste-like preparation meant for spreading on bread—pimento cheese, chicken salad, or deviled ham.
