Good food is good

Culinary heros

John Montagu

In 1748, the fourth Earl of Sandwich was John Montagu who loved to gamble. Anytime he could get a game in, he would. Since his time was limited, and he couldn't formally eat, he told his servants to give him a slice of roast beef between two pieces of bread, so he could eat at the table (did not need utensils). He might not be the first to come up with this, but he was the first to do it in public and often. As a result, this concoction of meat between two slices of bread soon became known as 'the sandwich.'
This guy gets double points because not only did he 'invent' the sandwich, but he did it so he wouldn't have to stop gaming! Great way to keep the dice out of the gravy!
