So I made a sandwich before a friend came over, and as usual, i sliced it across the middle. Anyway when my friend got here, I still hadn't eaten the sandwich, but he flipped out when he saw it. He said I cut it all wrong, but I told him I'd been slicing sandwiches like this all my life (from left to right). What say you, /ck/? Is this wrong?

[Anonymous No.7933897]

No, it's just personal preference.

>>7933896
you didnt even cut it straight
its like a 40/60 ratio

[Anonymous No.7933997]

I made sandwiches once for some people and they refused to eat it because I cut it diagonal instead of like op.

REEEEEEEEEE

[Anonymous No.7934000]

Once I cut off the crust of their sandwich and they refused to eat it.

They were so mad saying wheres their crust, I wont eat it without the crust.

You have terrible friends.

the objectively best way to slice a sandwich is twice diagonally to form 4 triangles, giving you the maximum no-crust to crust ratio on every portion

I'm sorry you're poor, OP. Does it hurt you'll never have as much money as me?

This is how I trick my daughters in the summer time. They don't like eating and are super skinny yet refuse to eat much so I will make a whole sandwich for each one of them and cut them like this and put it all on one plate for them to grab. Somehow they think because they are like mini sandwiches that they aren't eating a whole one after 4 mini ones. I tested out just giving them each a whole one cut in half on their own plates and they would barely eat half before saying they are full and throwing it away.

>no-crust to crust ratio

Assuming equal slicing, the ratio will always be the same. You have four crusts and four no-crusts. OP has two crusts and two no-crusts.

Why are you trying to make your kids fat?

[Anonymous No.7934139]

>>7934138
Not fat. But doctor says they are under weight for their age and height and they need to eat more and they hate eating unless it's taco bell, mcdonalds and fast food and I don't eat that stuff, I make food at home so they refuse to eat or fake being full.

>Assuming equal slicing, the ratio will always be the same.
not true because you increase the surface area of the edges the more you cut the but the amount of crust is always the same

[Anonymous No.7934148]

>>7934142
I figured the sandwich area was included in the "no-crust." So you're just talking about the edges?

But in that case, there is no maximum ratio, it gets larger and larger the more you divide it.

[Anonymous No.7934150]

>>7934148
I wasn't him that's just what I think he meant. plus there's no corners with crusts on both sides of the angle so you never get a full crust bite. its an important feature of the club sandwich

You will always get a full crust bite unless you're holding your sandwich wrong.

[Anonymous No.7934215]

Good man. The faster you can wean your kids off fast food and empty calories, the better. You could try making fast food a blue-moon reward for a month or so of healthy eating, just to get them started.

diagonal is superior

I don't know why.

[Anonymous No.7934225]

Why even cut the sandwich?

[Anonymous No.7934229]

>>7934216
Normally you get one sandwich length of not-crust

Diagonally, you get sqrt2 sandwich lengths of not-crust

[Anonymous No.7934236]

Because best for last is a meme. You eat the best part first, when you're most hungry and most strogly craving the food, for maximum eating pleasure. In a sandwich, especially with shitty pre-sliced bread, the best part is the middle with the most filling and softer bread.

[Anonymous No.7934240]

Cutting it like that allows you direct control over the crust/no-crust ratio for your first few bites. By taking a bite out of the center you avoid the crust completely, but by sliding the sandwich across a little, you can choose how much crust you want. Diagonal slicing doesn't afford you such luxury.

I do like photo I made. Cut diagonally, bite the corners off, then you have one large center section of pure bliss and no crust and it's so satisfying.

[Anonymous No.7934267]

>>7934256
I follow your way if my sandwich comes cut. however I rarely cut them if I make them and I eat them in the order numbered. That way I have the huge area of full bliss in the middle but still have some crust to hold it from

I will try that later on today. It looks very pleasing.

[Anonymous No.7934278]

I sometimes rip off the crust in the front and on the sides. Its very easy to rip the crust off and leave all the soft bread

But doesn't it fall apart if you do that?
