AUGUST IS NATIONAL SANDWICH MONTH

John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, in England, was famously known as an esteemed statesman. In 1762, an amazing event took place… 

                  HE INVENTED THE SANDWICH! 

Here's the lowdown on this amazing feat: 
In his private life, John was a card shark and a compulsive gambler. During a card game involving high stakes, John did not want to leave the card table or put down his cards. It was a dilemma. He had a great hand but was famished and could not stop eyeing the Roast Beef being offered. What to do? 
VOILA!!!! It came to him just then. He requested a serving of roast beef and two pieces of bread. He then instructed the server to place the roast beef between the two pieces of bread all the while holding his cards. Everyone looked at him shaking their heads! 
Ingenious and simple...he could now hold the cards in one hand and the roast beef and bread in the other. An amazing invention! Forever and always, to be known as a SANDWICH.

​And yes, John Montague, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, won a lot of money with the hand that he refused to put down. 
Why do we love our sandwiches? Well, they fit in with our busy lifestyles and work on the go. So many diverse fillings satisfy our hunger. The best comfort food is a Grilled Cheese Sandwich. Children's all-time favorite is Peanut Butter and Jelly. 
The moral of the story is: If you are ever at the gaming table in Vegas, don't forget...... 

ORDER A SANDWICH!!
