Best Answer

In 1762 when the 4th Earl of Sandwich, John Montagu, a British statesman, got hungry during a marathon Poker game. He asked his cook to get him something to eat that wouldn't interfere with the game. The cook took slices of roast beef and put them between two pieces of toast. It was the perfect solution. He could eat a hearty meal with one hand and still be able to hold his cards in the other hand.
