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.

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.

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

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

[–] drolex@sopuli.xyz 9 points 3 weeks ago

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

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"

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

[–] kubofhromoslav@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] MagisterSieran@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

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

This could bring peace to the Middle East.

The three slice solution

Where is thine god now?

[–] nevetsg@aussie.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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.

"Just round, if you think that's funny"

Is that an extra big slice of bread?

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

[–] syreus@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks 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 4 points 3 weeks 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 3 weeks ago

Just bite harder

(Kidding)

[–] kubofhromoslav@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks 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 😕

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

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

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 3 points 3 weeks ago

Looks average to me

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 4 points 3 weeks ago

Bikini bottom slicing!

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 4 points 3 weeks ago

Now I'm hungry

[–] stretch2m@infosec.pub 4 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Impressive. Totally using this from now on

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Instead, cut a V shape into the sammy. 2 cuts, 3 triangle tips.

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 3 points 3 weeks ago

Incidentally this is also a good way to bust up those weird oblong pizzas

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

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

[–] snowsuit2654@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

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

[–] volvoxvsmarla@sopuli.xyz 9 points 3 weeks ago

That's ham bro

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 2 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Looks like shitty cold cuts imo

[–] Credibly_Human@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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.

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

Who are you, Robert Z'Dar?

[–] Bakkoda@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 3 weeks ago

Errybody be kung fu slicing! 🥪

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

I don't like how two are so crust heavy.

[–] ieGod@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago

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