The average American eats about 200 sandwiches every day.
When I first saw that bit of trivia, I thought "That can't be right! I'm an old bachelor and probably eat more sandwiches than the average person, but I don't eat THAT many!" Doing the math, I figured that each American consumes nearly four sandwiches per week. That figure still seemed higher than the amount I eat a week, though.
After doing a little research, I found out that 50 percent of America eats a sandwich daily. It made me think about my own sandwich consumption and considering that - probably every other day - I eat a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit for breakfast, that probably counts as a sandwich, too. In fact, I had one for breakfast earlier today and two small turkey sandwiches for supper.
Oh well, I guess I really am above the mean on sandwich consumption.
