Some of those sandwiches may have needed inventing, but some of them are just things people have been sticking in bread for centuries. Steak, onions and cheese in a sandwich needed inventing? Next they'll be telling us that bacon and mushrooms in a sandwich needed inventing too.

The supposed origins of the sandwich itself are pretty stupid. The Earl of Sandwich supposedly invented this portable meal in the 18th century, but men had been eating food between hunks of bread for lunch for centuries before that.

To put aside the origin, those pictures made me do a fridge dive!
