There's something inherently charming about tucking tasty ingredients between two slices of bread. While the humble sandwich may seem simple, it has spawned hundreds of combinations and variations, from Reubens and burgers to grilled cheeses and cheesesteaks. Sandwich shops and other eateries are happy to satisfy their customers with their creations and carve out their own identities.
That's why Far & Wide revealed where you can find every state's most delicious sandwich. Writers picked sandwiches that best represent that state's local cuisine before diving into reviews from Yelp, TripAdvisor, and social media platforms to finalize their selections.
According to the website, Colorado's best sandwich is Fool's Gold! Writers dove into the history behind this beloved sandwich:
"Legend has it that one night, Elvis Presley took a private jet from Graceland to Denver just to purchase 28 Fool's Gold sandwiches from the Colorado Mine Company restaurant. Each sandwich was made from a hollowed-out loaf of French bread slathered with margarine, baked, then filled with a pound of bacon, peanut butter and jelly. Sadly, both places that served the sandwich — the Colorado Mine Company and Nick's Café — have closed. So your best bet to try it is to follow an easy and tasty recipe for it."
