2024 – Freddy – ??

Wherein we eat all the sandwiches on the Wikipedia List of Sandwiches and try to think of something clever to write about them.

We’ll go through three sandwiches every month or so, in alphabetical order. At least one person will post about each sandwich every month. If new sandwiches are added to the list after we’ve gone through that part of the alphabet, we’ll do a makeup post at some point.
