Sandwich, A Blessing in Disguise!
Sandwiches can be termed as a blessing for every generation, especially
the current one. The millennials are
always looking for foods on the go, they do not have time to cook elaborately
in the kitchen and that’s why sandwiches are a great option. All you need is
some bread, vegetables and butter/cheese
or some other kind of spread to put
together this humble snack. Well, maybe that’s why Americans eat 300 sandwiches
a day (maybe)! But, have you ever wondered how this popular food come into existence?
Here’ how: Sandwich came into the picture in 1972 in England, by John Montagu, so obsessed with the gambling habits that he didn’t even stop for a meal. He asked the cook to
bring him roasted meat between two slices of bread, so he could continue with
his game while he ate his meal and that is exactly when this invention came to
existence! The Earl played non-stop for
24 hours and only ate ‘sandwiches’ in between. This trend kind of caught on
with people ordering ‘the same as a sandwich.’
Funny, how one of the most popular snacks in the world was created!
But, one cannot deny the fact that there are endless possibilities to try
out when it comes to sandwich recipes. They can go from being really simple to
extremely extraordinary and exotic.
