Sandwich-related items of note

First, Zane reminded me of the great tumblr site Scanwiches today. I hope you check it regularly. It’s beautiful.

Second, Josh passed along word that the long-rumored, much-delayed Candwich is finally on sale. If you’re unfamiliar, the candwich is exactly what it sounds like: a sandwich that comes in a can. Only it turns out the sandwich does not come pre-made; you get a roll, a packet of peanut butter, a packet of jelly and a small knife and they expect you to make your own damn sandwich.

That’s a little disappointing, to say the least. But I guess it’s the only sure way to prevent the jelly from getting the bread all soggy. And I know if I’m confined to a fallout shelter and forced to live on canned sandwiches for decades, the last thing I’m going to want to deal with are prefab sandwiches not constructed to my own high standards. I mean we’re living in a 10′-by-10′ concrete cell waiting out nuclear winter for heaven’s sakes; all we’ve got is time.
