    The document summarizes the origin of the sandwich. It describes how the Earl of Sandwich, John Montagu, invented the sandwich in the 18th century so that he could eat meals without having to stop his card games. He had meat and bread served to him between slices of bread so he could hold it with one hand while continuing to play cards. His friends adopted the idea and named the new food item after Montagu's title of Earl of Sandwich, and thus the sandwich was invented.
