Maggie, a toasted cheese sandwich is a thing of beauty. I like the option of sticking some ham in it. There are times when a thing like that is what you need and nothing else will do. As Nigel Slater said, a salty bag of chip shop chips, eaten in a butty with terrible white bread and too much butter (so much that your teeth leave little cliffs in the butter when you bite into the sandwich), eaten when you're a bit pissed, is just what you need after a long night in the pub. I think he said that there's joy in licking the salty greasiness off the fingers. Especially if it's someone else's fingers...
