Poll: How many sandwiches ? (now with a poll!)

Matallica · 16 Oct 2005 at 12:45

I kind of accidentally stole this from somewhere else

My friend and I were mulling over a problem earlier, which we disagreed on. I thought that this would be the perfect place to stick a poll up to get a final answer, so here goes.

A man is making his lunch before he goes to work. He gets out two slices of bread, butters them both and sticks a filling in between. He then cuts the thing in half. How many sandwiches are there?

How many you reckon 1 or 2

Id say 1

2. Of course its 2. How on earth could it be less?

Rich_L · 16 Oct 2005 at 12:46

Yup 2.

If he cut them in half again he'd have 4, smaller sandwiches.

Two sandwiches noi more no less. They of course have to be cut into triagles or they won't taste as good. Although buttering the bread didn't help the taste cause much.

I would also say 1, or two halfs.

1 round of sandwiches, 2 round of bread.

Sandwiches are labelled in the singular when you buy them prepacked aren't they?

G|mp · 16 Oct 2005 at 12:51

I would say 1

Joe T · 16 Oct 2005 at 12:51

So how many rounds?

Depends if you're talking bread or sandwiches?

PardonTheWait · 16 Oct 2005 at 12:52

There's one sandwich cut in half.

If you cut me in half there wouldn't be two Robs. There'd be one Rob cut in half.

(and presumably some blood)

It's one sandwich that has been cut in half.

Gilly · 16 Oct 2005 at 12:57

I see its the southerners that aren't seeing sense again.

What on earth is a round of bread btw?

fatiain · 16 Oct 2005 at 12:57

In summary then. One round of sandwich, cut in half or two rounds of bread. OK, anything else is just wrong. Fools

Given that you call a slice of bread a round of bread all your opinions on the matter are null and void.

No 1 cut in half, see Mohinders post for clarification.
