Brands are taking to Twitter on Tuesday to celebrate National Sandwich Day – and not just those in food-related industries.
The sandwich is thought to have been the brainchild of John Montagu, Fourth Earl of Sandwich, in the 1700s, so he could simultaneously eat and gamble.
Here’s what brands had to say.
