Is there anything better than a well made banh mi vietnamese sandwich?
Okay, so I recently got into these. Luckily, my city has a pretty wide asian food selection - but I never tried the bahn mi until recently. If you're wondering what a Bahn Mi is, as per wikipedia:

Trust me when I tell you that if you've never had one before, the first one you want to try is the one with the pork belly in it. It is simply amazing.
Here's some pics to encourage you to hunt one out:

What other fast/cheap foods have others discovered late in life?
*don't ban me for this, pls.

Bánh mì ... Vietnamese pronunciation: [ɓǎɲ mî]) is the Vietnamese word for bread. Bread, or more specifically the baguette, was introduced by the French during the colonial period in Vietnam. The bread most commonly found in Vietnamese cuisine is a single-serving baguette that is usually airier than its Western counterpart, with a thinner crust. Unlike the traditional French baguette, the Vietnamese baguette is made with rice flour along with wheat flour (see rice bread).
The most popular variety of Vietnamese sandwich is bánh mì thịt, thịt meaning "meat". Bánh mì thịt nguội (also known as bánh mì pâté chả thịt, bánh mì đặc biệt, or "special combo") is made with various Vietnamese cold cuts, such as sliced pork or pork belly, chả lụa (pork sausage), and head cheese, along with the liver pâté and vegetables like carrot or cucumbers
