The sandwich<\/b> is undoubtedly the most famous sandwich in the world! Stuffed<\/b> with every delicacy, tasty and ideal when we are assailed by a sudden attack of hunger, the stuffed sandwich is the right dish to treat yourself to during any time of the day. We know it well at Babingtons<\/b> who, from morning to night, are always ready to cook for you so many goodies! But what are the origins of the sandwich<\/b>?<\/span><\/p>\n

Who invented the sandwich?<\/span><\/p>\n

The sandwich<\/b> boasts Anglo-Saxon origins<\/b>. In fact, it owes its name to John Montagu IV, Earl of Sandwich<\/b>, who lived during the second half of the 18th century, exactly 301 years ago<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The count was an avid and assiduous card player. Legend has it that within the walls of a famous London pub, the “Cocoa-tree,” he loved to play endless games with friends. Undeterred and not to miss a single moment, the count only indulged in quick snacks. During an exhausting game that lasted for more than 24 hours and for which the count had staked a lot of money, in order not to lose concentration and not to give in to fatigue, he asked a waiter to bring him “pieces of cold beef hidden in a couple of slices of bread.” In this way, the indefatigable count would be able to continue playing cards with one hand, while with the other he would bite into the sandwich<\/b>. All present, in response, asked “the same as in Sandwich!” . <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The popularity of the sandwich<\/span><\/p>\n

Over time, the sandwich<\/b> has traveled overseas, was first mentioned in cookbooks only in the mid 1800s, and is now popular all over the world. Just think that the most avid consumers are Americans who consume an average of 300million<\/a> of them every day!<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

This is precisely why it is their Department of Agriculture that defines how a real sandwich <\/a>should be composed … there really is something for everyone!<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
