Which way do you cut your sandwiches?

[True Dough]

In our household while I was growing up, my mother always used the diagonal slice. So it's a tradition that I carry on to this day.

[Kali]

1. I do the irregular diagonal

sort of between the horizontal and the diagonal

[True Dough]

3. Is that

even legal???

Maybe it depends on which state you live in?

[Kali]

4. LOL!

I like being slightly off center. that was the only image I found with a quick search. have to say...that is not a very appetizing looking sandwich.

[msongs]

22. that's how I do it nt

[randr]

26. Me too

Since I don't know when

[2naSalit]

2. Both.

It depends on the shape and size of the bread.

[applegrove]

5. Either way then if I am eating it I press it flat so the bread is flat and has no air.

[NBachers]

6. I don't

[RockRaven]

7. Depends on what's in the sandwich...

[2naSalit]

17. That too. ...nt

[Tree-Hugger]

8. Diagonal

It tastes much better when cut diagonal.

[c-rational]

10. +1

[True Dough]

15. That's a

scientifically proven fact!

[Binkie The Clown]

9. Depends. Grilled cheese is diagonal, but peanut butter is square.

Some sandwiches just don't look right cut the wrong way. I can't imagine cutting a grilled cheese on the square. That just violates all the laws of nature. A fried egg sandwich, on the other hand, absolutely must be cut on the square. There's no other way that makes any kind of rational sense.

19. Diagonal for dipping

Grilled cheese goes into tomato soup, thus cut corner to corner.

[Phoenix61]

28. Exactly!!! How could you possibly cut a PB&J on the diagonal? nt

[RainCaster]

11. I don't cut them at all-let's the flavor out

True

[onecaliberal]

13. I cut in 4.

[True Dough]

14. The more

the merrier!

[Solly Mack]

21. Me,too.

[ret5hd]

16. It is physically (as in "physics") impossible ...

to cut a sandwich in EITHER manner in the Planck Time between completing the assembly of the sandwich and the initiation of the first bite.

Therefore (again, according to the physical laws of our universe) your question is meaningless.

[viva la]

18. I had two kids

So I always cut diagonal for the younger and vertical fir the elder.

[happybird]

20. Diagonal

I like my food fancy.

[Gore1FL]

23. I don't unless the sandwich is large enough to warrant it.

Typically, in that event, I am using bread that isn't square.

So, for the most part, the answer is, either "semi-circle" or "half-rectangle."

[rsdsharp]

24. My Dad always did square. One day Mom cut my toast on the diagonal.

I threw a fit and told her to Scotch Tape it back together.

[Major Nikon]

25. The same way I cut my cheese

How else would you do it?

[True Dough]

29. I knew

you were the one who cut the cheese around here!

[Major Nikon]

30. The delicate bouquet of potpourri gives me away every time

I know what you’re thinking, but no, you can’t pull my finger.

[Laffy Kat]

27. My oldest--now 28--went through a period as a toddler where he'd only eat ....

Sandwiches divide on the square. Talk about picky. My youngest was always so famished he'd eat them cut anyway, anyhow and both halves were usually gobbled down before I turned around again. I miss the toddler days, I really do. It goes by so damn fast.

[patricia92243]

31. Triangle - It was easier to eat for my small children.

[Emile]

32. Depends on the mood I am in. If I'm feeling

artistic I cut triangular, if I'm feeling rushed I cut square.

[Harker]

33. I don't bake square bread, but when I did eat it...

triangles.

[Marthe48]

34. When my granddaughter couldn't make up her mind

I cut the sandwich in rectangles, and then cut one of the rectangles in half to make squares, and then cut the other one in half, and then cut the halves into triangles. So she got both. I had to do that for quite awhile, but why not

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

35. Why cut a sandwich? It's just another step in the process.

Maybe if I'm planning to share the sandwich.

[LuckyCharms]

36. Here's what I do...

I like building large, scrumptious sandwiches.

Then, I'll get my rubber mallet and smash the crap out of it until it is as thin as a piece of paper. Then, I take my old Stanley sheetrock knife and cut it into strips that are narrow enough to fit in this little manual pot grinder that I use to grind up my weed. It usually takes about three passes through the grinder with each of the narrow strips, because I grind the strips up so fine, they turn into a very fine "sandwich dust".

It takes a long time, because you have to grind each narrow strip 3 times to get it that fine, and you usually get about 50 strips out of a decent sized sandwich. When the dust for each strip gets fine enough, I empty the dust into a measuring cup.

When all the strips are ground into a fine dust and emptied into the measuring cup, I start slowly mixing water into the sandwich dust while stirring it with a wooden paint stirrer until it gets to a paste like consistency. The result is a delicious "sandwich paste".

Then I take a piece of bread and using a butter knife, I smear the sandwich paste onto a piece of bread, and then lay another piece of bread on top of that, thus making a "sandwich sandwich".

Finally, I cut it diagonally.

What was the question again?

[True Dough]

37. The question was

is it true that you put the Wonder in Wonder Bread?

[LuckyCharms]

38. Now you've got me wondering about that...
