A '''sammich''' (or "butty") is the name given to a popular lunchtime food consisting of a filling (such as [[meat]] or [[cheese]]), between two pieces of [[bread]]. Condiments such as [[mayonnaise]], [[ketchup]], and [[mustard]] are commonly used to add extra flavour to the sanmmich. The beauty of the sanmmich is that the possibilities for fillings are almost endless and that the [[bread]] keeps one from getting the filling on one's hands allowing them to be eaten anywhere.

==Bread==

Sammiches can be made with almost any kind of [[bread]]. Popular sammich [[bread]]s include:

*Wholemeal [[Bread]]
*The [[French]] [[Baguette]]
*Soda Bread
*Black Bread
*The Bread Roll (also known as a "cob", "barm", "bampot" or "[[tea]]-[[cake]]" in [[West]] [[Yorkshire]], a "bread cake" in [[Leeds]] or "oven bottom" in [[Lancashire]]
*The [[Stotty Cake]] or [[stottie]], a round, flat loaf beloved of [[Tyneside]]
*Small children

==Popular Sammiches==

*Perhaps the best-known sammich in the world is the [[hamburger]]
*The "BLT" consists of bacon, lettuce and tomato.
*The [[Beef]] Roll consists of sliced beef and [[horseradish]] on a bread roll
*The Philadelphia Cheese Steak sammich is a regional delight copied in many places
*The [[bacon]] sammich is a popular [[breakfast]] item and consists of [[bacon]] and either [[brown sauce]] or [[tomato]] [[ketchup]]
*The club sammich uses three pieces of bread, with several layers of meat, cheese, and vegetable ingredients. They are usually served quartered, and held together with fancy toothpicks.
*The chip butty consists of a buttered (or [[lard]]ed) bap, bampot or soft roll filled with hot freshly fried [[chips]].
*Peanut butter and jelly (PB&J)
*Ham and cheese

==Sammich Trivia==

It is thought to be named after the 4th Earl of Sammich, John Montagu, although he never used nor sought to perpetuate the term. The popular legend is that he ordered bread and meat one evening during an extended card game. When the victuals arrived, he sliced the bread and meat and 'sammiched' the bread between the meat, so that he could carry on eating and playing. In fact sammiches had existed long before the birth of Lord Sandwich.

==Closing Note==
The Wikipedia definition of sandwich, found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/sandwich
is clearly far too liberal for us, and we need our own article. Imagine all that horrible liberal mayonaise!
