The first written usage of the English word appeared in Edward Gibbon's journal, referring to "bits of cold meat" as a 'Sandwich'. It was named after John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, an 18th-century English aristocrat, although he was not the inventor of the food. It is said that Lord Sandwich was fond of this form of food because it allowed him to continue playing cards, while eating without getting his cards greasy.
The word sandwitch came from John F. Kenndy when he was eating some bread.
