HOW TO PACK A SANDWICH PROPERLY
THE DILEMMA You wake up early and prepare a delicious, well-balanced sandwich to take along for lunch. How should you pack it to make sure it keeps well?
THE SOLUTION Ideally, you should make the sandwich right before eating it—this way, you ensure its integrity (texture, flavor, crunch). If you can, pack each component separately and assemble your sammie right before lunchtime. If that’s not possible, follow these steps so your sandwich stays fresh longer: First, make sure all your vegetables are dry to prevent the sandwich from getting soggy; always pack tomatoes separately. Second, wrap the sandwich in parchment paper or aluminum foil (for warm ones) to keep the ingredients snuggly tucked in. Next, slip the wrapped sandwich in a zip-top bag to prevent possible leakage. Last, since most sandwiches are delicate, place it on top of heavier objects (like an apple or a juice bottle) in your lunchbox.
