Man Does Not Live By Bread Alone

tion appropriate? Can you imagine taking it on the plane? The looks you’d get. If you took it out to eat it, you’d probably be hung out on the wing by your neighbor. This is certainly not a close quarters sandwich.

There, of course, is always the trusty for a kid. It wouldn’t even enter their minds to finish it. They seem to consider most of it as just a handle to hold it by. Three bites in, and they are done!

Sandwiches are much less heavy for kids. By the time you finish cutting off the crust that they don’t even want to bagel. That can be safe because you can fill it with simple cream cheese. But definitely hold the lox for tight seating arrangements.

And so far, no one has come up with a matzah sandwich that trumps a bread one.

Since we ate matzah as slaves, we eat matzah as free men and women to flip the association and to remember also not to get all puffed up. During the matzah days, we remember to remain humble and appreciative.

And when we are good with that message, and we’ve inculcated it into our psyche, then we can humbly return to enjoying a nice whole grain with portobello and pesto – or however you want to slice it!

The only problem with bagels is, dough for dough, bagels are the most dense and caloric sandwiches and therefore not your first choice for a light lunch.

Of course, they are never a bad idea see a trace of, there’s very little they have to navigate and finish.

I know salads are the big things for adults these days, but with lighter and healthier breads available, sandwiches are making a bit of a comeback.

So enjoy your last few bites of bread, whatever you’re filling it with, because the matzah-remembering days are on their way.
