Diagonally, in the middle, or not at all?

Caroline13 · 02-24-2023, 01:48 PM

Oh another important topic, when I ate sandwiches I cut mine down the middle...haven't had a sandwich in probably 12 yrs.

I cut my sandwiches on bread diagonally, sandwiches on rolls I cut straight.

Middle or diagonal! I can't eat a sandwich not cut in half at all! When my kids were little always diagonal for them and sometimes in fours for little hands !

If you have a screw-clamp hanging with your workbench tools, it could come in handy to tame an extra-thick sandwich:

I love watercress tea sandwiches. I cut the crusts off and cut them in 4 quarters. For my egg salad or PB&J sandwiches, it's diagonal (square bread.)

There is no proper or improper way to eat a sandwich, if a person is hungry enough they may bite into the whole deal or break it in half with hands....in public use good etiquette.

This really needed a poll!

Middle, but I'm open to diagonal.

I did consider it, but I got lazy.

If a mod can add the poll feature, go for it.

Hey, I saw someone slicing a sandwich in a sitcom once, perhaps they might move this thread to the general sitcoms board, while they are at it?

Good grief, give it a rest already. Most members here understand that the General Sitcoms board discussion can be about more than just sitcoms, it is for general discussion of TV and actors/actresses. Chit Chat is for non-TV discussion, has always been that way. This sandwich thread doesn't mention TV at all and you know it.

Threads about TV and actors routinely get moved to the General Sitcoms board, has been that way long before you ever joined. But no one else makes a federal case about it, there was nothing wrong with PhoenixAcres moving your thread.

I don't see anything wrong with having a little fun with the absurdity, of course you are fully entitled to disagree, but that doesn't mean I have to agree with you either, I sometimes find it nice that we have folk such as yourself to keep order.

Poll added.

I was tempted to move it to General Sitcoms, but decided against it

I usually cut my sandwiches diagonally.
