You can't take away sandwich-making jobs from hard-working sandwich makers. It's their bread and butter.

Bud's a pest when he's Hungary. That's a mnemonic device I used when learning European capitals in school. Relevance: pure free association.

Having said that, I really like how approrpriately British the meme sandwiches are, like the bread shot full of arrows (Robin Hood), the one with the Sainbury's peanut butter jar, and of course, the Cadbury chocolate still in the wrapper. Considering that the Earl of Sandwich's great-great grandfather was a big fan of chocolate cake made with ambergris (squid beaks digested in a whale's stomach) and civet musk, those are all in keeping with a fine British culinary tradition.

Hospital canteen's 'fry-up' pie is 'heart attack on a plate' - Telegraph

Quote:
Former government adviser calls for ban on pie crammed with bacon, sausage, black pudding and beans, with an egg on top, being sold for £1.50 at Ninewells Hospital in Dundee


I'm a bit hungry now.

The trouble with the toasted tomato sandwich is one is never enough. One leaves you wanting another. Maybe two. Possibly three.
