THE SANDWICH
A very conversant gambler, Lord Sandwich did not take the time to have a meal during
his long hours playing at the card table.
Consequently, he would ask his servants to bring him slices of meat between two slices of bread;
a habit well known among his gambling friends.
Because John Montagu was the Earl of Sandwich others began to order
“the same as Sandwich!” - the ‘sandwich’ was born.
