tuna sandwich
Mayo and fish
A tuna sandwich is a sandwich filled with tuna salad—canned tuna mixed with mayonnaise and often celery, onion, or pickles.
It's a staple of American lunch counters and brown-bag meals: I'll have a tuna sandwich on wheat.
A tuna melt adds melted cheese, usually under a broiler.
