An Italian sandwich.
A sandwich is a food item typically made of one or two slices of leavened bread between which are laid one or more layers of meat, vegetable, cheese or jam. The bread can be used as is, or it can be coated with butter, oil, or other optional or traditionally provided condiments or sauces to enhance flavor and texture.
The modern sandwich is named after the 4th Earl of Sandwich, although the exact circumstances of the invention of the sandwich are still the subject of debate.
Sandwiches are commonly carried to work or school in lunchboxes or brown paper bags (in sandwich bags) to be eaten as the midday meal, taken on picnics, hiking trips, or other outings. In some parts of the world, they are also served in many restaurants as entrées, and are sometimes eaten at home, either as a quick meal or as part of a larger meal. When eaten as part of a full meal sandwiches are traditionally accompanied with such side dishes as a serving of soup (soup-and-sandwich), a salad (salad-and-sandwich), french fries/chips, potato chips/crisps and a pickle or coleslaw.
