This contrivance was not first hit upon by the earl in the reign of George III., as the Romans were very fond of "sandwiches," called by them offula. Source: Brewer's Dictionary. |

This article is about the food item. For other uses see: sandwich (disambiguation). The sandwich is a food product consisting of two or more slices of bread enclosing one or more layers of meat or other fillings. The dish was named in the 18th century after John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, an English aristocrat, although it is unlikely to have been invented by him. It is said that Montagu was fond of this form of food because it allowed him to continue gambling whilst eating.
Sandwich is common meal in picnic or hiking.
Some types of sandwich are too unwieldy to be held in the hand, thus defeating their original purpose.

Sandwich is a historic town in Kent, south-east England. It was one of the Cinque Ports and still has many original mediaeval buildings. It also has a world-class golf course.The local economy has benefited from significant investment by Pfizer, a US pharmaceuticals company, which has built a research & development centre near Sandwich, employing over 1,500 people. Viagra, Pfizer's treatment for erectile dysfunction, was discovered here.
The town's connection with the snack of the same name is that John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich allegedly invented it; see his entry for further details.
There is another village in Kent called Ham Street, or just Ham. A road sign some miles away pointing to both villages, thus:

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | ELECTRICITY, n. The power that causes all natural phenomena not known to be caused by something else. It is the same thing as lightning, and its famous attempt to strike Dr. Franklin is one of the most picturesque incidents in that great and good man's career. The memory of Dr. Franklin is justly held in great reverence, particularly in France, where a waxen effigy of him was recently on exhibition, bearing the following touching account of his life and services to science: "Monsieur Franqulin, inventor of electricity. This illustrious savant, after having made several voyages around the world, died on the Sandwich Islands and was devoured by savages, of whom not a single fragment was ever recovered." Electricity seems destined to play a most important part in the arts and industries. The question of its economical application to some purposes is still unsettled, but experiment has already proved that it will propel a street car better than a gas jet and give more light than a horse. |
