The Y-cut sandwich trend took the internet by storm, giving sandwich lovers the illusion that they're getting more filling and less crust in every bite.

Can we all agree that sandwiches are one of those gloriously simple options with infinite possible combinations? They can be a snack or a meal, and are almost impossible to mess up. Right?

Apparently, a lot of us have been doing sandwiches wrong.

The controversy began a few weeks ago when Ryan Duff posted on X (formerly Twitter). Though he was eating a classic sandwich combo of ham and cheese, it was how he cut his sandwich that caught his fellow X users' attention.

Instead of cutting the sandwich in half, diagonally or otherwise, he cut the sandwich in a Y-shape with pieces that were approximately the same size.

According to Claire Lower, the digital editor at Christopher Kimball's Milk Street, an instructional food preparation organization, the cutting of the sandwich into three pieces made sense.

Lower explained:

"It seems genius, even though it is just mildly clever."
"It lets the eater start with three bites that they know are going to be 'good,' as in they will have the even distribution of fillings and condiments you get at the center of the sandwich."
"I don't see myself taking the time to do this but I'm a big fan of anything that gets people to eat more sandwiches."

Some were floored by the concept.









Others agreed and were eager to try.









But some were too skeptical to sample.












While many people saw the genius in Duff's concept and wanted to try it themselves, there were still some who were skeptical of the concept, seeing the cut as a waste of time when they could just cut the sandwich in half.

But as Lower argued, whatever cut gets people to eat more sandwiches is the right cut!

Meghan McCain Mocked For Seemingly Just Realizing That MAGA Wants Women To Stay Home And Raise Kids

Former The View co-host Meghan McCain was widely mocked after complaining about MAGA conservatives' "harsh views" about women who don't want children—prompting many to wonder if she's been paying any attention at all.

McCain's remarks come as conservatives increasingly encourage women, particularly younger women, to prioritize motherhood. Several women tied to the administration, including Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Katie Miller—wife of Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller—and Second Lady Usha Vance, have recently spoken publicly about their pregnancies.

RFK Jr. Posts Bonkers Video Working Out Shirtless In Jeans With Kid Rock—And The Internet Can't

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had people rolling their eyes after he shared his new "Rock Out Work Out" video promoting the Make America Healthy Again (MAGA) movement that features him and far-right singer Kid Rock working out shirtless and hanging out together.

At one point during the oddball video, the two men are shown drinking whole milk in a pool, a decision that follows the release of new federal dietary guidelines under the Trump administration that encourage consumption of full-fat dairy. Kennedy has even previously shared a video of himself drinking a glass of whole milk as a flex, footage that was amplified by the White House.
