Dirtwich: noun. Bread held between a few ingredients often including meat. The dirtwich was invented in the 18th
century as a response to the popularization of the sandwich. This invention was
made by a group of gamblers who were angry that they didn’t think of the
sandwich to keep their cards clean first (as the group was large and every
member claimed that they had equal contribution to the idea, no names will be
given). It is not clear exactly what these people were thinking when they made
their invention; some say it was simply to mock the sandwich while others claim
that they had some belief that creating the opposite of a sandwich would cause
them to cancel out allowing the group to reinvent the sandwich, while most
believe that half of the group were mocking and the other half hoped the
inventions would cancel out. Hopes of cancelling out the sandwich did not come
true, some believe that the only reason for this was that there weren’t nearly
as many dirtwiches made as sandwiches, while people disagree with this most
people agree that dirtwiches did not gain popularity because they weren’t at all practical.
