A sandwich is a versatile food made by placing fillings between slices of bread, rolls, or wraps. Originating from 18th-century Europe, its name is credited to John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich. Sandwiches can be customized to suit any palate, featuring ingredients such as meats, cheeses, vegetables, spreads, and condiments. Common varieties include the deli sandwich, club sandwich, and vegetarian options like hummus with roasted vegetables. Nutritionally, sandwiches can be either healthy or indulgent depending on the ingredients. Whole-grain bread, lean proteins, fresh vegetables, and low-fat spreads create a balanced meal rich in fiber, vitamins, and essential nutrients. However, versions loaded with fatty meats, sugary sauces, or white bread can be high in calories, sodium, and unhealthy fats. By carefully choosing ingredients, sandwiches offer a quick, convenient way to enjoy a satisfying meal suitable for any time of day.
