I stack the lettuce centered on the meat and top the masterpiece with a lid. It is a lid of mayo-spread bread and Shazam I have a sandwich to please the gods, or children who run our house. But wait. The creation is not complete, I can feel many of you waiting for that last action to make this sandwich edible.

I have already offended the no cuts, and now the rectangular cut camp just threw their hands in the air. So why do I abandon the straight cuts and side with the diagonal? Well, it's not for the following reason though incredibly thought out:

Because when you take bites from each of the 2 triangles, you are able to chomp on a good mixture of the bread crust and the sandwich filling. Otherwise when uncut, initial bites are lot of crust, and then when you reach the center, too much of the filling in your mouth.

It is because of the gods of the home, my picky eater child has decided he will eat his sandwich if it is cut on the angle. So, I bow to the will of his stomach, or tummy in his lingo, so that I will be a good parent that actually feeds his son.
