| Description | Ease, satisfaction and taste – John Montagu foreshadowed the requirements of the modern consumer when he asked for his first sandwich.

An integral part of the appeal of a sandwich is the malleability of the formula: they present an opportunity for personalizing our food without having to spend too much time. For a detailed history of the sandwich and some unusual old recipes, visit this site. You can also read more on the origins of a beloved meal here.
