What Does Your Sandwich Say About You?

It should be a simple decision you make every day- what to eat for lunch.

The sandwich always has your back. It's there for you at 4 in the morning when you come home from a club steaming drunk, and it's there for you as you rush out to a lecture. Think 2 slices of bread and the possibilities of what you can put inside it are endless. You can even explore unchartered territory with your breads- granary, wholegrain, tomato, white, or soda?

Display your uniqueness with fillings. Your personality shines even brighter when you decide: Butter? Mayonnaise? Just a dab or layer it on? Mustard? Just when you have ham, but never chicken… Ahhh the sandwich possibilities are endless. Below are a few classics and what they say about your personality.

Ham And Cheese

Is this toasted? If so congratulations you have just mastered how to eat something not unlike a pizza while giving the illusion you are kind of healthy. The thing about ham and cheese on white bread is that that you can get it anywhere- a Spar will see you right any day of the week to ham and cheese sandwich excellence. As will a posh hotel. They might put crisps on the side. Either way you cravings can be satisfied. You're easy-going.

Nutella

The fact that you are eating Nutella and you're in College shows the world that you haven't quite accepted that you are a grown up yet. Maybe your mum even made this for you? Ideally served on white bread the Nutella sandwich is most often found wrapped up in cling film in a 5 year old's lunchbox as they make their way to school. If you are eating a Nutella sandwich and perhaps wearing your hair in pigtails, we are worried. How did they even let you into College?

Tuna Melt

The thing about you is you're brave. You see a lot of people do not like fish. You however are boldly going where most won't. Adding cheese to this only ups the flavor and texture. The fact that it's served hot tells us you are a forward thinking individual.

Cheese and Tomato

You may well be a vegetarian. You stand strong and proud in your ethical and moral beliefs. Yes, you know this sandwich would taste nicer with ham in it but no, you have your ethical philosophy. You would like to be vegan (no dairy or eggs) but college just makes it too damn hard and a hummus sandwich is so dull. Cheese and tomato it is… until the vegan canteen opens.

BLT

You've an appetite for life and you want the world to know it. Your sandwich choice reflects a strong, confident individual who takes the bull by the horns. Extra marks if your BLT is a triple decker. Minus marks if you're one of the people who pick things out of your BLT. Whether you are in O'Briens or Eddie's you should take your BLT the way it is served. What if it's too high you might ask? Open your mouth wider..

Turkey Club

Not quite as manly as the BLT but close enough. I don't know you but I think I'm right in saying you love Christmas. Not just christmas day but the week after. With your knife in hand, a white bap and some cranberry sauce you carve a creation from the carcus. You like to be in control. You want the knife in your hand. Seeing as turkey is a superfood, you are super fit and healthy and if you play your cards right the knife will always be in your hand.

Cat Sandwich

We're not OK with this and you need help.
