Baby Logic #61: Crushed Stones and Fairies

Ro, while eating:

 

Ro: Is there sand in my sandwich?

me <surprised>: I don’t think so. Sometimes there are little stones in the bread but I think yours is fine.

Ro: Are there witches in the sandwich?

me <laughing>: No!

Ro: Then, why is it called “SANDWICH”?

Good question. Why?

 

 

One thought on “Baby Logic #61: Crushed Stones and Fairies

  1. … because of John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich (18th century): he didn’t invent it, but used to order meet between slices of bread. Copying him, his fellows ordered “like Sandwich”… Enjoy! 🙂
