Where do people use artichoke hearts? I know they're good with spinach and cheese in a dip, but beyond that I'm not sure how to incorporate them.
Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm just glad it doesn't have celery....

I've had them on a pizza (or in a calzone) and be tasty. Also in a tomato sauce with pasta.

So basically they're moist, textured salt bombs, and I could use them where I'd usually have black olives? Sounds good to me. Thanks!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
And on another note entirely - is this the most controversial Buffista sandwich of all time?
Not until someone tries to add cilantro.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I pretty much only eat them marinated and then in like an antipasto situation.

Black olives are what I feed to a dog to teach her that human food sucks.

Calli, here's wishing you a really good annual review.
I don't eat vegetables, except the plainest ingredients of salad (cucumber and tomatoes mainly), or bread. So I cannot comment on the sandwich. But it looks weird.

No where near as salty as olives, in my experience. Usually they get marinated in a vinegar-based liquid, so they have a tang to them.
Freshly cooked artichoke hearts (i.e. still warm/hot) are great just dipped in melted butter (like the small meaty part of the leaves).
