Mysterious History Of The Earl Of Sandwich...

It was back in the year 1762, in all its decadent glory, that there lived a glorious man known as John Montagu. One day, dearest John encountered an incident in his life, that would change the course of History altogether.

He happened to be enjoying an adventurous game of cards with his friends, and he was a bit too lazy to get up and have dinner. Also, he was too busy enjoying his precious card game with his friends. They were busy laughing, playing and doing things the way guys are likely to at a game of cards.

Given that he did not want to leave the table to go and get something to eat, John Montagu, the 4th Earl Of Sandwich came up with a brilliant idea. Now many of us love a good Deli Sandwich, and this idea of his changed the way we dine forever.

So as things would have it, he did not actually get up from his seat. Instead, he asked someone there, to put a slice of meat between two pieces of bread. Hence, the bread-enclosed treat known as the Sandwich!

The men all got back to their vivacious game, after the Earl finished with his treat!
