An English gentleman, the Earl of Sandwich, gets credit for being the first person to ask for a piece of meat between two slices of bread. He wanted something he could hold in one hand to eat while continuing his card game (or so the story goes).

Who renamed the hawaiian islands the sandwich islands?
the british explorer captain james cook who 'discovered' Hawai'i (although you can't discover something that was already discovered), tried calling it that in an effort to 'own' discovery of it. However, you can't rename a country that already has a name so Hawai'i remained Hawai'i. It is technically only referred to as the sandwich islands, not renamed that. captain cook tried naming Hawai'i the sandwich isles (islands) after his sponsor who was the earl of sandwich.

Aloha. Answer: If you mean on what day was Hawai`i discovered, then it was 18 January, 1778.

He didn't call them Hawai`i though. He called them the Sandwich Isles (named after a friend, the Earl of Sandwich).
