It's said that the English nobleman, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, didn't want to leave his gaming table to eat so he ordered his valet to bring him meat shoved between two pieces of bread. Soon after, people were ordering "the sandwich." And the rest is history. We all seem to like the convenience and probably the variety the sandwich seems to offer. From club, to cuban, wraps and paninis, the sandwich is a staple in everyday American fare.
