Honestly, how good are Sandwiches?, specifically, Ham, Cheese & Tomato sandwiches, I just had one for breakfast, not gonna lie, delicious, and you have to at times wonder, sort of stop and pause, and consider all the various bits an pieces that actually had to occur, to be eating your sandwich yeah?

So like, first, you have to have bakers, then, they have to like, invent, sliced bread, which, was actually not “invented” that long ago yeah, then you have to have, wasn’t he a golfer? If I recall, the sandwich guy? Perhaps I am wrong on that but I was of the understanding that sandwiches were invented by that guy because he wanted like easy food to eat while he was golfing.

Then you add the cheese, then of course you have to add the Ham, and that’s got to be sliced, so theirs machinery involved.

Then of course you have to package it, and so then theirs marketing involved, and technology and graphic design, and the research that went into the packaging, and what not and so forth, and on and on it goes right.

When you break it down, the amount of innovation, research, all that jazz, that actually goes into eating a Ham, Cheese and Tomato sandwich is pretty impressive, if you think about it that way.

And of course, a lot of those things require heating, so then your like all the way back to the dawn of humanity and fire and myths of Prometheus and all that stuff, all, so I can drive to the store, and purchase a Sandwich for breakfast.

Ok, sure, its just a Sandwich, but if you actually, want to trace all the bits and pieces that are actually involved in not only making, the ham cheese and tomato sandwich, personally, I think its pretty educational, and pretty impressive, also tasty, and I have not eaten cheese, for like … weeks, delicious.

So yeah, if you are out there, and preparing your kids lunches, or perhaps even yourself lunch! Or breakfast, or whatever time of day it is for you, take a moment to pause, and consider the rich, intricate tapestry of history and human innovation, that is, the Ham, Cheese & Tomato sandwich.
