This is a list of notable sandwiches. In American English, a sandwich is understood to be a dish consisting of two or more pieces of bread with one or more fillings between them,[1][2][3] or one slice in the case of an open sandwich; however, in British English (and some other national English varieties), the definition of sandwich is narrower, requiring a sandwich to be made with bread sliced from a loaf, not other forms of bread such as rolls, buns, bagels or muffins.[4] This list article uses the American definition, so some of the sandwiches listed herein may not be considered sandwiches in other national varieties of English.
Sandwiches are a common type of lunch food often eaten as part of a packed lunch. There are many types of sandwiches, made from a diverse variety of ingredients. The sandwich is the namesake of John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, a British statesman. Sandwiches can also have notable cultural impact.
Major types of sandwiches include:
- Two slices of bread with other ingredients between
- Two halves of a baguette or roll with other ingredients between
- Hero, hoagie, or submarine sandwich
- Open-faced sandwich
- Pocket sandwich
Sandwich cookies and ice cream sandwiches are generally not considered sandwiches in the sense of a bread-containing food item, but are named by analogy.
