Continuing with celebrating our favorite foods this week, today is no exception. Cathy Isom has us honoring one of America’s most popular lunchtime foods. That’s coming up on This Land of Ours.
Celebrating National Sandwich Day
Friday, November 3rd is National Sandwich Day. Ever wonder where the name originated from this popular lunchtime food? This ultimate convenience food was named after John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich.
In the United States, the term “sandwich” is more widely defined, it also refers to types of food that include an entire bread or bun cut in halves such as hamburger, hot dog, or submarine sandwich.
Sandwiches are a popular type of lunch food typically taken to school, work, or picnics as part of packed lunch. The most popular varieties of American sandwich include but are not limited to BLT, club sandwich, peanut butter and jelly sandwich, sloppy joe, French dip, Italian beef, and others.
