History of all time favorite ' Sandwich '

A sandwich is a food item, typically consisting of two or more slices of bread with one or more fillings
between them, or one slice of bread with a topping or toppings, commonly called an open sandwich.
Sandwiches are a widely popular type of lunch food, typically taken to work, school, or picnics to be
eaten as part of a packed lunch.
An Englishman called John Montagu, who was the 4th Earl of Sandwich, it is named after him who
popularised the modern Sandwich. He ate meat in two bread slices, so others began to order "the same
as Sandwich!" ....as they would say.
Thus sandwich was invented in England in the 18th century by John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich.

England Commemorates 250th Birthday of the Sandwich . . .
In 1762, one John Montagu, Earl of Sandwich (in Kent, England) decided to ask his manservant to put some meat between two slices of bread so he wouldn't have to get up from his gambling game for a snack. From that day forward, John Montagu blessed the world with the creation of the "sandwich," the bread staple of lunch, dinner, and every other snack time.
Sandwich (the location) and the rest of England have begun a year-long campaign full of sandwiches.
