A ham and cheese sandwich is a common type of sandwich. It is made by putting cheese and sliced ham between two slices of bread.〔, p. 138: "Insert slices of ham and cheese between 2 slices of buttered bread or toast. Add lettuce along with mayonnaise and/or mustard."〕 The bread is sometimes buttered and/or toasted. Vegetables like lettuce, tomato, onion or pickle slices can also be included. Various kinds of mustard and mayonnaise are also common. Sliced bread, sliced cheese, and sliced cooked ham are very readily available in Western supermarkets and as a result ham and cheese sandwiches are quick and easy to prepare. They are a common component of a packed lunch. ==History== As recalled by ballpark concessionaire Harry Stevens in a 1924 interview, in 1894 ham and cheese sandwiches were the only food sold in New York baseball parks; frankfurters were introduced fifteen years later.〔The New York Times, April 13, 1924, p. XX2: ''Ball Fans Must Eat: Harry Stevens, Caterer to the Sport World, Talks of Outdoor Appetites''〕 An Englishwoman, writing in 1923 of her passage through Ellis Island on a trip to the U.S., noted: :I was in fear and trembling, having heard so many tales of the abuse aliens receive there.... The attendants were very kind and not at all rough with us. It was the noon hour... in a little while porters came along with baskets of very good ham and cheese sandwiches and coffee for the grown-ups and milk for the babies.〔The New York Times, July 1, 1923, p. XX8, ''Letters to the Editor: Experience at Ellis Island''〕 Richard E. Byrd took ham and cheese sandwiches on his 1926 polar flight as did 1927 transatlantic fliers Chamberlin and Levine.〔 The New York Times, June 29, 1927, p. 2, ''Fliers' Menus More Varied Than That on Earlier Trips.'' In addition to sixteen ham and cheese sandwiches, Byrd took sixteen chicken sandwiches, four roast chickens, one gallon of coffee, and one quart of tea. (Lindbergh carried ham sandwiches).〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ham and cheese sandwich」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
