The humble sandwich, the go-to lunch for millions of people across the UK and beyond, is having its well-deserved day in the sun. National Sandwich Day, which falls on Thursday, November 3, is a celebration of one of the most popular and delicious snacks.
The sandwich's beauty lies in its simplicity. Consisting of two slices of bread holding a layer of cheese or some other simple ingredient, it is quick to rustle up and easy to eat on-the-go.
The research team from Betway studied search volume increases for popular sandwich fillings over a period of 12 months. By studying Google Trends data, they calculated the nation’s favourite sandwiches, which features all the usual suspects and a surprise addition.
