I've always cut this way, using a fork for a subtle curve, and it allows for 3 fairly equal bites, that feel like the right size for my mouth.

Who are you, Robert Z'Dar?

What is on that sandwich? Looks like pickled radish slices.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 2 points 2 hours ago

Don't worry I see it too. I really miss the middle Eastern butcher shop that had these now.

[–] volvoxvsmarla@sopuli.xyz 9 points 7 hours ago

That's ham bro

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

okay but that's a big sandwich right? I'm not going crazy?

[–] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 3 points 7 hours ago

Looks average to me

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 hours ago

Yes those are either massive pieces of bread or that plate is deceptively small.

I never slice my sandwiches at all and never will. Why do that extra step? Seriously, why?

[–] syreus@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

A lot of people have gaps in the contact of their front teeth. This makes it difficult to cut things like lettuce and tomato. Cutting reduces the sad event where you think you are clear but you yank out all the veg.

[–] SpacetimeMachine@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Wow I never put 2 and 2 together. That is the reason my sandwiches always fall apart. Man the more you know I guess.

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 hours ago

Just bite harder

(Kidding)

[–] xia@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

Hmm... what does this remind me of... :)

[–] ieGod@lemmy.zip 1 points 7 hours ago

The fact that two pieces have four sides makes me irrationally angry. You could have achieved balance and reduced cut count by one.

[–] stretch2m@infosec.pub 4 points 10 hours ago

I'm going to eat the whole damn thing anyway. ZERO cuts.

[–] Bakkoda@lemmy.zip 2 points 9 hours ago

High school calculus did not prepare me for this. Area under the crust?

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 8 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

This could bring peace to the Middle East.

The three slice solution

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 20 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

ot: Why post this with the tweet/skeet? It doesn’t add anything. And why do is see this guy’s tweets here so often who is this?

[–] MagisterSieran@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

You think Jonathan made the meme? The wording implies otherwise.

[–] kubofhromoslav@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Not necessarily. But I am quite sure that Jonathan made the tweet.

[–] MagisterSieran@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

But the tweet is superfluous, it’s not the point of the image. Hence the confusion why it’s there at all.

[–] kubofhromoslav@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Well, the tweet provides additional point, so...

It... doesn’t? It adds nothing, it’s just “haha that’s neat”.

[–] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 49 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Thats 3 separate cuts rather than just 1 or 0..

Typical capitalist thinking, multiply the amount of needed labor just for product appearance. Instead of trying to archive the same performance with less labor.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 24 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

This sandwich is straight out of the USSR.

Unnecessary labor that only exists to keep sandwich cutters employed. It produces an odd looking product that would never last in a free market economy. This is the Lada of sandwich cuts.

This is a sandwich for Khrushchev.

[–] MummysLittleBloodSlut@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

USSR was capitalist. A ruling elite used the means of production to control society. That's capitalism.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

My grandfather worked in the Norilsk sandwich mines as state sandwich cutter. I stand by what I said.

[–] drolex@sopuli.xyz 9 points 20 hours ago

This is a bourgeois sandwich, made with the blood of the proletariat for the advancement of the capitalist brutality

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 11 hours ago

Errybody be kung fu slicing! 🥪

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 4 points 14 hours ago

Bikini bottom slicing!

[–] AmbitiousProcess@piefed.social 12 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Minimizes crust per bite, while still keeping the largest possible structural integrity from the crust for each piece.

Maximizes surface area per piece, can make it feel like you ended up eating more sandwich compared to traditional slices.

Known as the "Duff Cut"

Checking if the video was posted at 1st April. Nope. I would save it and send it to whoever tells me that i overanalyse things.

[–] Naz@sh.itjust.works 8 points 16 hours ago

Where is thine god now?

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 5 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Is that an extra big slice of bread?

[–] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 11 hours ago

Looks like a stamdard slice of sara lee or oroweat. Neither of which are really bread and are more like bread flavored cake. But yes, its bigger than normal sandwich bread.

[–] kubofhromoslav@lemmy.world 4 points 16 hours ago

I was in a pizzeria with 2 friends and we bought 2 pizzas. In order to divide them equally we have asked to cut them into 6 pieces instead of usual 4. They have cut them in usual 4 orthogonal pieces and then have done a diagonal cut. At the end, we technically have cut them to 6 pieces, but it haven't helped us to divide them equally 😕

I cut my kids lunch sandwiches into all sorts of whacky shapes. They love it.

Icosahedron would be more aesthetically pleasing. Not to mention helpful for initiative rolls.

Now I'm hungry
