Today's Reason to Celebrate

November 3, 2009 was

National Sandwich Day

Today is a celebration of one of America's favorite foods: the sandwich. It is no coincidence that November 3 is also the birthday of John Montagu, the fourth Earl of Sandwich. This 18th-century English noble wanted to eat his meal with one hand during a 24-hour gambling event, so he instructed his servants to serve him his lunch meat between two slices of bread. In celebration of this occasion, November 3 is now celebrated as National Sandwich Day!

What's the most popular sandwich in America? Why, the hamburger, of course. Chicken sandwiches are a close second. Whether you make yours a home or at a restaurant, sandwiches are great because you can make them as healthy or unhealthy as you want! Celebrate National Sandwich Day by enjoying your favorite type of sandwich.
