❓ Trivia
why is it "sand"wich???  Was there sand in the origins of this food?

Answer
Fortunately, not. No gritty sand particles whatsoever. 
Sandwich was popularized in the district called "Sandwich" in Kent, England, by John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich. 
It was said that he did not want to leave the gaming table, so ordered food in the form of meat between 2 slices of bread. 
I would imagine many other players followed suit!  Thus, the rise to fame of this handy food.

Japanese potato salad, onegaishimasu!!!

Refreshing Crunch in every bite Nice touch of creamy from the potatoes and dressing Wonderful colors BEST of ALL: HEALTHY 🥗  Ingredients  3 potatoes, boiled &  roughly  mashed  1/2 cup of picnic ham, or 1/2 can of Spam, diced and fried. 1 cucumber, sliced 1 carrot, julienne 1/2 cup sweet corn,  1/2 cup picnic ham, diced &fried Japanese mayonnaise (*or any mayo) vinegar 1 boiled egg (optional) Salt and pepper to taste. 🥗  Steps Once the potatoes and ham are done, boiled-mashed, fried, respectively. mix altogether in a big bowl. Serve warm immediately, or it can also be served after being chilled for an hour (if in a rush 30 mins in the chiller will do.) The kids preferred without onions, so I always exclude it. Pair with some nicely fried food, like Japanese sausages, or chicken nuggets; world peace over dinner is hugely important. 💡 Inspired by: Ochikeron & Just One Cookbook
