Left to right? Are you crazy. It's right to left you idiot. That way the fillings are more concentrated in the left as they are naturally dragged by the compression of the knife. Please don't tell me you have been eating your sandwiches right to left as well?

 

[PrivateWHudson]

I feel like this thread should be a Silicon Valley episode.

#TeamHorizantal

 

[jrcbandit]

Horizontal or vertical doesn't matter as long as you cut it relatively evenly ;p. Alternatively, diagonally is fine. But better yet, don't cut it at all....

 

[Frozenprince]

You need Jesus, OP.

I can't even imagine how long you've been cutting them like that, but the people in your life who should have told you and never did are equally responsible for your sin.

It's not even an even cut!

 

[Zackat]

the halves aren't even! This is an outrage!


This is gonna be a good thread.


I never cut my sandwiches.

 

[Walter White Walker]

Do whatever floats your boat, but I cut diagonally.

 

[LyleLanley]

You need Jesus, OP.

They probably gave up on him as soon as they saw him cut a sandwich like this. Honestly, I can't blame them.

 

[DietRob]

RIP Sandwich. OP does not deserve you.

 

[User 479360]

There's a correct way? Isn't it just user choice?

Diagonal or horizontal are fine by me, but I hardly eat sandwiches. Anything with cold meat, mustard, mayonnaise, cheese...turns my stomach just looking at it. I only eat PBJ + my Grandpa's natural honey, leftover turkey sandwiches from Thanksgiving/Christmas (with only salt and pepper, nothing else) or bacon and tomato with only salt and pepper.

 

[wrowa]

The Earl of Sandwich is appaled by the way you cut your sandwich.

 

[raindoc]

OP: "GAF: fight!"

 

[platakul]

You did it right, OP.

Thank you

 

[Frozenprince]

I don't even wanna know how you cut your grilled cheeses.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

I don't even wanna know how you cut your grilled cheeses.

Eat the edges and toss the bread.

Mom: *starts to cry*

Dad: It's ok, Honey. We'll treat him just like a normal child.

 

[RoslindaleOne]

The next question is...Should you eat the smaller half first, or the bigger half? If I were you I'd eat the smaller half first. Knowing that it tasted good when you finished the smaller half, you have more left to eat.

They both knew that would be impossible.

 

[Nickle]

Gaf memes...

 

[StudioTan]

In all seriousness, for anyone that cares what their food looks like this seems like the most unappealing way to cut a sandwich. I'd feel like I'm holding a sandwich that someone else has already half eaten.

Diagonally is preferred, vertical is also acceptable....but this? No.

 

[HardRojo]

Fucking LOL OP I wasn't expecting that picture.

Slicing a sandwich in half should be a test for something, with results tied to the way you slice it.

#TeamDiagonal

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

Jesus Christ on a bendy bus.

IronGaf exists in another dimension, because those guys can cook.

 

[Soulflarz]

Okay possible nuke area got me


But
Diagonal is optimal, I have no idea who taught you how to cut a sandwich, but they taught you wrong. Does that cut curve? How did you even manage that?

 

[Az987]

Diagonal because it feels more special.

 

[katsubento]

$30 Italian meals, butter sandwiches, now this. Be proud OP, this sandwich will be legend.

I can't wait to see this sandwich in a thread.

 

[Easy_D]

Why even cut it up in half like that? Isn't it easier to keep the toppings inside the bread if you don't?

 

[DJ_Lae]

Diagonal is the best way to cut a sandwich as it maximizes the surface area of the cut portion.

Vertical is also okay, although it's better for shorter, squat loaves of bread.

Horizontal is an abomination, as even if you cut it straight you'll always end up with halves that are uneven.

 

[johnny_park]

Did you cut that, or rip it in half?

 

[Par Score]

So I made a sandwich before a friend came over, and as usual, i sliced it across the middle. Anyway when my friend got here, I still hadn't eaten the sandwich, but he flipped out when he saw it. He said I cut it all wrong, but I told him I'd been slicing sandwiches like this all my life (from left to right). What say you, gaf? Is this wrong?

This is the only way I have ever seen a sandwich cut, outside of some fancy places that try some diagonal weirdness.

You're doing it right OP.

 

[LucidMomentum]

Don't lie to the boy.

 

[LoveCake]

OP you have made two small sandwiches there imo, it shouldn't be cut using regular sized bread slices, if it must be cut then diagonally into two, unless it's party sandwiches when it is cut into diagonally into four.

It is pretty common though to find sandwiches cut the same as the OP.

I would like to ask the OP and others that cut sandwiches like that, which section do you eat first, the bottom part (flat section) or the top part (crusty rounded section) because if you don't save the best "top part (crusty rounded section)" until last, well

*Sorry I couldn't resist.

Cannot believe this gif hasn't been posted already.

 

[sora87]

Don't cut, just eat it whole

 

[MikeDip]

How can someone be so bad at something? Lines of symmetry mean nothing to you? I am embarrassed to be the same species as you.

Angels weep for us, we have failed.

 

[Professor Beef]

Normally I wouldn't even care which way it was cut, but the motherfucker ain't even symmetrical! You fucked up!

 

[Kenzodielocke]

OP triggered a lot of people here I see.

 

[brawly]

That is one hell of wonky ass cut OP.

 

[old manatee]

lol it's cut sideways what is happening

 

[BlueTsunami]

Came in expecting something pedant, but that's about the only cut that's wrong. Diagonal forever.

 

[Laguna X]

You fucked up, OP!

 

[G-Bus]

Cutting methods aside the real problem here is with op's sandwich making skills. That looks like something id give my 5 year old nephew.

Make a real sandwich OP. That thing looks pathetic.

 

[Phu]

OP, please post a pic of the rest of the bread loaf. I need to see if you keep it on its side or hang it from a coat rack or something.

 

[MCN]

That's how I cut sandwiches.

Same here. But at the end of the day, it's just a sandwich, and tastes exactly the same whichever way it's sliced!

 

[Professor Renegade]

Cut it whatever way you want. Honestly, who gets shook over the way a sandwich is cut?

 

[Princess Viola]

People who know how to properly cut a sandwich

 

[dity]

You know that's wrong. Don't lie.

 

[Gnome Scat]

Diagonally to make triangles.

 

[mrklaw]

Came into thread expecting triangle snobbery, but what's this vertical bollocks? Never heard of anyone cutting a sandwich vertically.

If your desire is to have equal parts top and bottom crust on each sandwich, then just turn one slice around and cut horizontally. Personally I like the OPs approach as that gives you one sandwich with double top crust - the King of sandwiches. Eat the shitty bottom one first to save the best for last.

Not a fan of the triangle as the crust:centre ratio is too high for those initial bites - it's nearly all crust.

 

[Deleted member 325805]

That's how my family have always cut sandwiches, I prefer diagonal, though.

 

[Strangelove77]

Throw that awful thing in the trash and try again.

 

[pharmx]
