*(CNN) — Who can resist a sandwich — especially if it’s free. November 3rd marks National Sandwich Day (yes, it’s a thing.) That means it is time to spotlight the humble meal that’s probably most appreciated by kids, parents and working professionals for being a quick and easy way to stuff the belly.
The origin of the sandwich dates back centuries. It was popularized in 1700s England by John Montagu, the fourth Earl of Sandwich, who ordered sliced beef between slices of bread so that he could eat while continuing to play cards.
Some 260 years later, the handy meal is consumed the world over and in America is honored with its own day.
But even though National Sandwich Day is still not an actual holiday, plenty of restaurant chains are doling out deals and freebies on sandwich orders.
