Seems everyone here basically agrees, but that order puts the tomato and lettuce adjacent and they can both be really slippery. The bread should absorb at least one slippery item on each end.

No?

I'm still not certain of the best order, but I do know that two veggies touching makes for slippery messy eating. Can't be avoided altogether but minimized?
