National Sandwich Day is November 3, and if you’re in the Boston area, you’re in a great place to celebrate.
Of course, I celebrate National Sandwich Day every day. If you were to put a gun to my head and threaten to pull the trigger unless I told you what my favorite food was…well, first of all, please put the gun away. That’s an unbelievably dangerous thing to do, putting a gun to someone’s head. What’s wrong with you? OK, now that we’ve moved past that unpleasantness, I will tell you this: you do not need to threaten me. I will happily shout from the rooftops that my favorite food is indeed the humble sandwich.
I eat a sandwich for lunch every damn day. Well, except for the days where some fine local business is kind enough to drop by with some food. (The ROCK 92.9 studios are in Waltham now, by the way. Local Waltham eateries, please take note: you are always welcome to visit). For real, though, I love sandwiches. My latest creation is two slices of tofurkey and a slice of cashew cheese with fake mayo, Dijon mustard, lettuce, and dill pickle slices. Oh, and a sprinkle of celery salt. I’m housing one of those a day for lunch. But if that’s not your style, that’s OK. There’s plenty of other options around Boston.
