    Looks like this was based off a list of 50 sandwiches made popular by the Food Network and Zagat magazine.

    Specifically Cam’s Ham in Virgina advertises the Ham and Mayo sandwich.

    Are these “state sandwiches”? Probably not. Judging by the comments, you’re all rather passionate about your sandwiches and what they represent. I’ve even received reports on this post saying it’s false information. Perhaps we need to consider the source of this information and take it with a grain of salt.

    Thank you all for remaining civil, and acknowledging the existing of sandwich alternatives such as hot dogs, tacos, and quesadillas.

      Yeah no, that Oregon sandwich is almost certainly Pine State Biscuits’ “The Reggie Deluxe” which is delicious, but there are maybe five locations entirely in Portland at which it’s served.
