The History of the Dagwood

Ah, the Dagwood. A sandwich so popular, it's in Webster's Dictionary! We featured the Dagwood as one of our Spotlights last week and we thought we might revisit its history. According to Wikipedia: A Dagwood (sandwich) is a tall, multi-layered sandwich made with a variety of meats, cheeses and condiments. It was named after Dagwood Bumstead, a central character in the comic strip Blondie, who is frequently illustrated making enormous sandwiches. According to Blondie scripter Dean Young, his father, Chic Young, began drawing the huge sandwiches in the comic strip during 1936. 







Our version of the Dagwood included house-roasted turkey, ham, pork, red onion, lettuce, tomato, pickles, mayo and mustard on marble Rye bread. Yum! Long live the Dagwood!

Wow! This is so mouth-watering! I love your version of the Dagwood sandwich! I'm craving for it right now! Thanks to Chic Young who illustrated the sandwich. He inspired someone to make an actual sandwich like that. I'll definitely try your version.

Dagwood means the more the merrier! Right!? Who doesn't want all the yummy fillings on his sandwich? Well, I do! It would be so nice to have your own Dagwood joint. Where people could come and create their own Dagwoods. The taller the sandwich the better! There would be a variety of meats, sausages, bacons, cold cuts, sauces, toppings and side dishes to choose from! and of course the breads would come in variety, too! That would be a Dagwood dream!
