History of the Sandwich:
Â
John Montagu was the 4th Earl of Sandwich in the shire of Kent in England who was in charge of a territory in the King’s stead. He loved to play card games and was well known to order meat and with two slices of bread to put around the meat so his fingers wouldn’t get grease on the cards. The rumor spread about the town about his meat with bread and others wanted the same thing. They then began to ask when ordering food if they could have “The same as Sandwich”. Eventually this became just “Sandwich” when ordering. National Sandwich Day celebrates both Montagu for creating such a delightful meal and sandwiches!
