Arnold Palmer, your boomer dad or grandpa’s favorite golfer (unless he favors that shady Jack Nicklaus fella), would tell the story like this. He was in a restaurant and ordered his habitual beverage, a...
But of course if you’ve been paying attention you know that we’re not done. Many sandwiches have been added to Wikipedia’s list since we started, and through our own obsessive study of the subject (and through tipoffs from some of you!) we’ve discovered a raft of sandwiches that aren’t even mentioned on the Wikipedia page.

The 1970s were lean times in Poland. Wages stagnated while the price of food and other basic goods–prices that were fixed by the government–rose, and rose again, sparking protests, labor strikes and civil unrest....
Welcome to April, 2020. A momentous month marking the End of the List.
Jim Behymer (402)I like sandwiches.
I like a lot of other things too but sandwiches are pretty great
Crit (27)I'm a mother of two boys. I work selling organic produce to gullible locals, and in my spare time I run as far as I can. Oh, and I live in Australia, married to a US citizen.
Drew (14)I'm a transgender weirdo who loves music, books, comics, and all kinds of other geeky crap. I edit an arts/music/culture magazine in my hometown of Richmond VA (rvamag.com). But let's not talk about my day job. Let's talk about food. I love food.
Brian (7)I'm a tax guy and technical writer living in the city known to its locals as The Big 'Ago. I self-identify as a fighter against culinary dogma, a sandwich lover, and an overly-earnest hot dog enthusiast.
juliachildish (4)No denying it, I like the sensual things of the world, especially good food and drink, though I'm no snob when it comes to either. A background in American cultural history and food studies makes me approach the world with a desire for contextualization and connection on the way to synthesis.
Thom (1)I'm a seafood-obsessed environmental scientist from North Carolina currently enduring the pain of living in a landlocked state. I spend most of my free time thinking about baseball, history, Shaw Bros. movies and weird synthesizer music.
Marinus (1)A South African now living in Australia, after 12 years in New Zealand and 4 in Ireland. Has worked as an academic researcher for the past decade, which is only slightly less time than it took him to fulfil his promise of writing an entry for the blog.
