Guidelines for Sandwich Making

Wash hands and use surgical gloves.
- Approximately one pound of meat makes six to eight sandwiches.
- Loaves of bread vary in size.
- Call a grocery store a day or two ahead to order sliced meat.
- Warehouse stores are a good place to buy fruit, drinks, and treats.
- Use mayonnaise and mustard packets, if possible.
- Avoid mayonnaise in warm weather.
- Many of our friends have dental problems; please purchase soft fruit (no apples, please.)
- Fruit cups are a good alternative to fresh fruit - please remember spoons.
- Large packages of cookies may be divided and bagged.
