Humans have been eating meat and other foods with bread for thousands of years. Lord Sandwich was fond of the meal, as it allowed him to continue playing cards without getting the cards greasy -it carries his name to this day. Different countries and cultures have different variations of this hand-held meal. Have a look at the culinary delights below. All sourced from the Chicago Tribune here.
The Mexican sandwich seen here is filled with roasted pork leg, thinly sliced, lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, avocado, manchego cheese and honey mustard spread.
Finished Cuban sandwich from El Cubanito for a Tribune story about the best Cuban sandwiches in Chicago.
Corned beef, sauerkraut Swiss cheese and thousand island dressing on rye: A must have for any aspiring American deli.
Chopped parsley, diced onion and yogurt are spooned into a hot pita to create this Middle Eastern meatball medley.
Substitute the bread for plantains, throw some steak and onions in between, and you've got yourself a Puerto Rican specialty.

The Torta is my fave on this list closely followed by The Reuben - YUMMY.
My fave sandwhich is wholegrain bread, turkey breast, beetroot and egg (mashed with mayo and lemon). Cover in cracked pepper and delish. It is a healthy protein sandwhich that a lot of people squirm when I order it when out but they try it and I change their world.
