Crisco Sandwich
Domestic science consultant Sarah Field Splint introduced the world to the Crisco sandwich in her 1926 book The Art of Cooking and Serving. As the name implies, a Crisco sandwich is a sandwich made primarily from Crisco vegetable shortening (mixed with some salt, mustard, and other seasonings).
More recently, the world was reintroduced to the sandwich by Instagram celebrity Barry Enderwick (aka the "sandwiches of history" guy). He includes it in his new book, Sandwiches of History: The Cookbook.

Comments
I nominate Barry Enderwick for Bravest Foodie of all time. Mom preferred Crisco for all her frying. But she would have screamed in horror at the thought of putting it on bread.

The Crisco label NOW says, "Not intended for use as a spread".
