We know that the bread enclosed convenience food also known as the sandwich was invented by John Montagu, fourth Earl of Sandwich (1718-1792).
He apparently invented the sandwich because of his gambling addiction as he didn’t want to leave his gaming table to have a meal. The Earl didn’t bet too much on the future of the sandwich but did start a catalyst for the many variations of the sandwich around the world. One of the most popular sandwiches is the bacon sandwich. The bacon sandwich was invented in Ireland and spread quickly to the rest of Britain. In Britain, they call a bacon sandwich a Bacon Buddy! It consists of crispy bacon, butter, and a brown sauce (often HP Sauce … yuck!), all stuffed between two slices of soft white sandwich bread. A study was conducted at Leeds University which consisted of testing 700 variants of the sandwich. They experimented with different cooking styles, types of bacon, breads, oils, and special additions. Each variant was then ranked by 50 tasters. They found that the best bacon sandwiches are made with “crispy, fried, and not-too-fat bacon between thick slices of white bread.” As they really love studying their bacon sandwiches, another study by the Direct Line for Business listed the top additions to the traditional Bacon Buddy in England. Although the original was still the preferred sandwich, the next top contender was the “breggy” which adds an egg. The 3rd most popular addition to the sandwich was mushrooms, followed by cheese. For sauces, brown sauce was favoured over ketchup. If you want to create a new better premium tasting Bacon Buddy then we have the solution for you. ZEG Sauces.
