Sandwiches are versatile and delicious. I bet plenty of people in your shithole eat sandwiches as well.

>> No.9012412

>>9012344
We are a culture where the midday meal isn't really that much of a break. You don't go home for it, so you need something quick to eat and portable. So for most Americans lunch is some kind of sandwich. Then there's the convenience factor for people who don't really cook. A loaf of sliced bread and stuff to put on it to make sandwiches allow someone who doesn't cook to make themselves many cost effective and somewhat tasty meals. Then the thing just feeds on itself - because they're popular there are a number of places that specialize in particular kinds of sandwiches, some of which are particularly delicious. No one is eating a Reuben, a meatball parm sub, an Italian Hoagie or c Cuban sandwich because it's particularly convenient and cost effective. People seek these sandwiches out because they're really fucking good. Same goes for a bagel with cream cheese and lox.

Not all sandwiches are awesome. Most are pretty pedestrian. But there are a few that are awesome. A Reuben is pretty tough to beat, as is a good banh mi or a Philly roast pork with broccoli rabe. There's definitely a top tier of sandwiches where the level of deliciousness transcends their pedestrian form.

half of that list makes no sense. Americans dont understand the difference between grilling and frying? What does that even mean?? Do I have to be european to get that stupid joke? I dont think YOU understand the difference between "obsess" and "like". You know, obsess, like bring it up for no reason at every chance you get, use their anime image boards to constantly complain about people you dont know. Also, I live down the street from local breweries that are better that any euro beers Ive had.
Euro trash complaining about American beer is hilarious, you think we drink nothing but budweiser and coors like in Hollywood movies you obsess over?
