The immediate
cultural precursor with a direct connection to the English sandwich was
to be found in the Netherlands of the 17th century, where the
naturalist John Ray observed that in the taverns beef hung from the
rafters "which they cut into thin slices and eat with bread and butter
laying the slices upon the butter"— explanatory specifications that
reveal the Dutch belegde broodje was as yet unfamiliar in England.
95% of people who lose
weight by dieting end up regaining the lost
weight. Follow the 80/20 rule instead. Eighty percent of the time,
choose foods that are nutritious, high in fibre and low in fat. Twenty
per cent of the time, allow yourself an indulgence. That way, you will
never feel deprived.
