Philosophy of the Sandwich

Two pieces of bread with something tasty between the two. Have you thought of the philosophy that governs the existence of the sandwich? I thought not. Let’s take the cheese sandwich as an example – two plain, white pieces of bread with a slice of cheddar cheese. A nice simple point of reference. Do we place the cheese in the sandwich to flavor the bread or do we use the bread to dilute the strong flavor of the cheese? This can count for almost any ingredient – sandwich ingredients are almost always more flavorful than the bread. So which is it? Do we eat the sandwich for the bread or for the filling?
