About Dagwood sandwich

The Dagwood Sandwich is an iconic, towering multi-layered sandwich, inspired by the comic strip character Dagwood Bumstead from *Blondie*. Known for its playful excess, it often includes a variety of ingredients such as deli meats (ham, turkey, salami), cheeses, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, condiments like mustard or mayonnaise, and additional toppings like olives, all stacked between multiple slices of bread. Originating in American cuisine, the Dagwood is a celebration of creativity and indulgence. While packed with protein and vegetables, its hefty portions, high sodium content, and potential added sugars in condiments make it a less-than-ideal choice for those watching calorie or sodium intake. To enjoy a healthier version, opt for whole-grain bread, lean meats, low-fat cheese, and limit the number of layers.
