A few days ago, I responded to Janine’s request for requests. She wants to know what we want to know about, and I wanted to know about sandwiches. It turned out great because she happened to have some thoughts on bread already brewing, and you can find the results of her inquiry here. In particular, the following stood out:
“…having a hot sandwich brings a feeling of accomplishment and makes the sandwich feel like a full meal event.”
I agree. Hot sandwiches rock, especially ones with cheese. Also of importance is that:“…non-sub sandwiches need to be sliced diagonally from corner to corner. This is not a mere aesthetic consideration, but a means to ensure that you do not end up with sandwich fillings all over yourself. Triangular sandwich halves are easier to hold and eat.”
Excellent point. Thanks, Janine. You’ve done a great public service here today.

for some reason, whenever i think of cheese, or someone mentions the word "cheese," i get a mental image of Homer Simpson sitting at his kitchen table and eating a package of American cheese: "mmmm, 36 slices of American cheese. one, aughugh. two, aughugh..."
