The Very Best Sandwiches in New Jersey: Where to Find the State’s Top Picks
The History of the Sandwich
The sandwich got its name in the 1700s from John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, who asked for his meat to be placed between two slices of bread so he could eat while playing cards. But the idea of putting food inside bread has been around much longer, with people in many cultures doing something similar. Over time, the sandwich became a quick and easy meal enjoyed all over the world, with different versions in every country.
