    Sandwiches are named after the Earl of Sandwich right? Have there been further developments?

        Like hot dogs and tacos, depending on your sandwich alignment.

            No, no! Salad Theory is clearly the only acceptable foodstuff categorization theory.

            lol I had a coworker show me this and we went crazy with it.

            The only food I could think of that didn’t fall into any of the categories is Shepards pie. Starch only on the top. What do you think it should fall under?

      My headcanon is that Earl of Sandwich had a dream one night where some mystery people from Sahara, the Sand Witches, showed up, and went like “yesss, a slice of bread, yesss, now put some stuff on it, yesss, maybe more slices of bread and more stuff and so on but that is optional. But we must go. Bye!” And thus was born a simple delicacy known worldwide.

        In the sequel, there’s a man in a suit with a giant pingpong ball for a head.
