Peanut butter and jelly, bologna and mayonaise, ham and cheese; oh, the delight of a simple sandwich. November 3rd marks National Sandwich Day! Why November 3rd?

The 18th century English noble, John Mantagu wanted to eat his meal with one hand during a 24-hour gambling event, so he instructed his servants to serve him his lunchmeat between two slices of bread. To commemorate the birth of the world’s first sandwich-maker, we celebrate one of our favorite lunch meals.

What’s your favorite sandwich?
