Learn More About The Sandwich Drawing
A sandwich is any dish that uses one or more pieces of bread as a container or wrapper for food.
Sandwiches may be sweet - such as peanut butter and jelly or ice cream sandwiches - or savory, hot or cold. Sandwich-like dishes exist in most world cultures today.
Using bread in such as way is probably as old as bread itself. For example, it is recorded that an ancient Jewish thinker wrapped lamb and herbs in flatbread.
Another predecessor of the sandwich might be the "trencher" of medieval Europe. Thick pieces of stale bread were used as plates.
This bread, flavored with the juices of the meal, could then be eaten. This technique is still common in some countries today.
The term "sandwich" entered the English language in the 1700s. John Montagu, earl of an English town called Sandwich, loved to play cards.
He had meat and bread brought to his gaming table so that he and his friends could continue to play as they ate. Soon, this snack was fashionable across Europe, and it was named for the earl of Sandwich.

During the industrial revolution of the 1800s, light, portable, and inexpensive meals became a necessity for the working class. This trend continued, both for employees and school children, throughout the twentieth century.
Sandwiches became even faster and easier to make with the invention of pre-sliced bread in 1928. Today, ready-made sandwiches and restaurants specializing in made to order sandwiches are common.
The sandwich is often used to represent childhood, especially the peanut butter and jelly sandwich. In popular culture, large and elaborate sandwiches became known as "Dagwoods," named after a hungry character in the Blondie comic strip.
The popular Shopkins collectibles feature sandwich-themed characters, including Nice Cream Sandwich, Bagel Billy, Barbie Breakfast Muffin, Sconnie, and Tasty Toast.
