The third paragraph concerning the expanded definition of "sandwich" seems a might sketchy to me, especially since it claims that hamburgers are now called sandwiches in the United States except in most parts of that country and the rest of the English speaking world. This inference is from what is currently stated in paragraph 3. Could the original author perhaps refine this statement? I'd fix it myself but I thought I'd let the sandwich community discuss this before I take any rash action. First I'll fix myself a hamsandwichburger. Or a hamburger sandwich (in [[Baltimorese|Baltimore]] that would be a ''hamberer sanrich'').

In the intro, please replace food with dish as dish is more of a culinary term. [[Special:Contributions/2600:100C:A211:7F18:ED6F:90C2:E068:DBFA|2600:100C:A211:7F18:ED6F:90C2:E068:DBFA]] ([[User talk:2600:100C:A211:7F18:ED6F:90C2:E068:DBFA|talk]]) 17:43, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

We need to track down a decent recipe for an Oyster Po'boy which is a hot sandwich. - [[User:Sparky|Sparky]]

This [http://www.fabulousfoods.com/recipes/main/sandwiches/oysterloafsandwich.html Oyster Loaf] sandwich recipe is close -- needs more tabasco and less mayonaise. - [[User:Sparky|Sparky]] 07:43, 6 Jan 2004 (UTC)

== FDA - meat necessary? ==

Currently, we read "The USDA uses the definition, 'at least 35% cooked meat and no more than 50% bread' for closed sandwiches, and "at least 50% cooked meat" for open sandwiches" But later we read of the classic PB & J. Does the USDA really exclude non-meat sandwiches from its definition of sandwich, is it really so far out of touch with decades-long American culinary and linguistic culture, or is the quotation missing specifying context?

Moved Hot dog to fillings section instead of sandwich type section. Cannot really see that this is a sandwich-type, but rather a sandwich content. If this is a generic sandwich type, which then should include other sausage "sandwiches" it can as easily be pointed out that there should be a "burger" sandwich type which would encompass all sandwiches in the burger bun, i.e. chicken burgers, fish burgers, and other types.

The earl would have been unable to eat a sandwich having sustained an injury at the age of seventeen.

most of his food beyond this point would have been soup.

There is evidence to suggest that a law in France requiring land owners to feed their workers a mid-day meal may have brought about the invention. There is some conjecture as to where the Earl returned with rthis idea to his estates following a journey abroad

The bread is not "usually buttered" in the '''majority''' of sandwiches, so I'm getting rid of that, and appending that as a passing phrase at the end of one of the sentences. In fact, the only one I can think of is the Reuben (though obviously there're more). A light buttering while the bread is baked is understandable, but I feel the statement "usually buttered" implies more than that.

THIS IS FOR THE INTRODUCTION!

A sandwich is a dish typically consisting of meat, cheese, or vegetables used as a filling between slices of bread, or placed atop a slice of bread. More generally, it refers to any dish in which bread serves as a container or wrapper for another food type, allowing it to be a finger food.The sandwich began as a portable, convenient food in the Western world; over time, it has become prevalent worldwide.

== Why is the picture for sandwich so absurdly offensive? ==

It's a bologna sandwich with lettuce and a glass of milk, on disgusting white bread. No one would eat this sandwich tragedy. Please pick a picture of a sandwich that isn't disgusting.

Consider adding the following items:

The majority of sandwiches in the United States are not buttered, but this is certainly not the case in the UK and Ireland. American sandwiches often have considerably more filling than thise from other parts of the world (compare a typical deli sandwich with English tea sandwiches). Also in the USA, cheese is often used as a condiment accompanying meats, wheras elsewhere it is frequently used as a filling in its own right.

== Deleted the Following ==

''Many sandwich producers are known for their criminal obsession of putting [[condiments]] and other, less than [[solid]], ingredients in their sandwiches, like [[mayonnaise]], [[ketchup]] or [[Culinary mustard|mustard]] . This turns the (usually pleasant) experience of eating a sandwich into a messy [[torture]] that the [[Inquisition]] would be more than proud of. Sliced [[tomato]] also fits in this category of ingredients that should be prohibited by [[international law]] from inclusion into a sandwich, however some disagree that in this case the offender should be viewed with some sympathy as tomato slices are easily discarded from the sandwich before eating, where condiments and [[sauces]] are not.''

Great writing, but too POV. Sorry, [[User:MosheZadka|MosheZadka]] 10:34, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== Chemistry ==

There are some compounds in Organometallic Chemistry called "Sandwich compounds". They are referred to this way because the metal atom is sandwiched between two ligands.

For example, ferrocene:

Fe

Should this be included?

:Perhaps the page should include some mention of the word "sandwich" commonly being used to describe any situation comprised of one thing placed between two like things in common American parlance (and perhaps elsewhere?) Placing one of X between two of Y seems to be pretty regularly described as an "X Sandwich." This attests to the prominence of the sandwich "meme."

== Sandwiches Gambling Buddies ==

As we all know the Sandwich is named after [[John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich|The Earl of Sandwich]], however there is no mention of the friends he gambled with, [[Twiglets|Lord Twiglet]] and the [[Hula_Hoops|Duke of Hula Hoop]].
