19 fillings to divide (or unite) the nation on National Sandwich Day
When a guy on Twitter poked fun at the nation’s fondness for a sandwich (we’re pretty sure it extends into Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland as well) he had no idea what was about to happen next.
English people will dead put anything in a sandwich. Fish fingers, chips, crisps, sausages. You name it, it's going in the fucking bread

Not just the grief that was unloaded on him, but just how much we REALLY WILL put between two slices of bread. It might start off nice and conventional but get a load of where it ends up.
