This Controversial Sandwich Cutting Trick Claims It Gives You Perfect Bite Every Time

If nothing else it got us talking.

Cutting a sandwich isn’t necessarily a hard task. It’s probably so second nature that you don’t even think about it as you do it.

It can happen in so many different ways, too. There’s the classic horizontal cut where you slice it directly down the middle or the diagonal route. Some even like having their sandwiches cut into squares with the crusts removed.

While all of these ways have worked over the ways, we may not have been doing it in a way that allows us to enjoy our sandwich to the fullest. Well, at least that’s what one social media user claims. But if there is ever a way to make a better sandwich, we’re in.

The "Duff Cut” Viral Sandwich Hack

When X (formerly known as Twitter) user Ryan Duff recently posted about cutting his sandwiches with the “Duff Cut” the trend almost immediately went viral—with 19 million views and counting. The cutting hack, which he said he created, involves slicing a sandwich into thirds (not halves like we are used to) so each bite is more balanced. As Duff said in his thread, this way of cutting the sandwich “makes the bites and crust more proportionate.”

Many commenters on X were quick to like this way of cutting their sandwiches with one saying, “I cut my sandwich like this today and I’ll be honest you really did something here” while another said this technique is “like the Mercedes of sandwiches.”

Others commented by confessing, “I didn’t know it was legal to cut a sandwich this way. You made twice as much sandwich out of sandwich” and someone else agreed: “I don’t know what it is, but this does something to me. Will be my new cut.”

When someone asked whether the top sandwich piece (which has only one side of crust as opposed to the others with two sides) should be eaten last, Duff said “yes” which makes sense since this will probably be the bite with the most filling to enjoy.
