Typical two pieces of bread with something inside.
I think 9 bites, unfortunately with only one bite in the centre being crustless.

Americans really will use any measurement before touching the metric system
lohky@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 1y
It's true.

Just like the misattributed Churchill quote :
You can trust the Americans to do the right thing, after they tried everything else.
ivanafterall@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
That's a bit rich coming from the British.
Akasazh@feddit.nl · 1 pts · 1y
Well it's a misattributed quote, so it doesn't actually originate with Churchill

... what would the metric unit be? 🤔

The Sandwich
dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 1y
honestly number of bites in a sandwich sounds like a volume measurement, so cubic centimeters or litres would be metric units used for this

We'll make an exception this time 👩⚖️

Well, there are 8 bits in a byte, so there must be 8 bites in a sammich, obviously.
InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works · 19 pts · 1y
That's a 64 bits sammich.
over_clox@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y
Each bit is an ingredient.
2 bits bread
1 bit ham
1 bit cheese
1 bit lettuce
1 bit tomato
1 bit pickles
1 bit mayonnaise
So when you divide it all out, it's only 8 bites.

Checks out, at least if you represent the string "sandwich" in ASCII.

Zero, you take bites, the sandwich never has any.

If someone left a bite in my sandwich I'd be very upset.

Bro, nibble the crust first, then there are so many glorious crustless bites. Or just cut it off.

I prefer my sandwich

I quite like the crust, but could you not slice the crust off? That would likely improve the bread to crust ratio considerably.
Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone · 2 pts · 1y
I like crust too though
phorq@lemmy.ml · 7 pts · 1y
I normally do a ton of nibbles. What's the conversion rate of nibbles to bites? And are chomps just a US unit of measurement?
SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 1y
A nibble, four bits, is half a byte, eight bits.

Doing everything to dogde the metric system 🇺🇸🦅

The Internet was never the same after Europe adopted the 10-bit metric byte.
BudgetBandit@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 1y
This would make for an awesome Cyberpunk TTRPG setting… an evil villain letting free a virus that transforms every bit into a 10-bit metric byte. Items being unusable unless decoded, etc.
NeoNachtwaechter@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
All units that use body parts are US ones.

Your size or mine?

Resol@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y
How big are your bites? The number of bites a sandwich has depends on their size.
Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone · 1 pts · 1y
Normal i think.
My wife is 12 to 15 bites though
Resol@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
If your wife is a living sandwich, then... PLEASE don't eat her, unless you have a cloning machine and wanna eat the clone or something.
JWBananas@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y
All of them.
I'm sorry.

12:
Corner bite - a balance of crust and content, a display of delayed gratification
Good bite - because you did so well delaying your gratification
Corner bite - because you hope the richness of The Good Bite will transfer somewhat
Navigating the last corner:
Rotate for a heavily crust>content corner bite - the build up
Deliberately smaller, last of the crust bite - the set up
Last Good Bite - smaller than The Good Bite but, equally, aren't you clever
X 2
ouRKaoS@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 1y
Cut your sandwich into triangles. This gives you 4x good bites & 8x corner bites without size differences.

Bread comes in too many different shapes and sizes for this to have a universal answer.

How can there be -3 bites in a sandwich?
Lux@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 1y
You eat the sandwich in 9 bites. Then you vomit back up the sandwich plus 12 bites of the last thing you ate
Death_Equity@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y
You dropped it or it was stolen by a magpie or gull before you finished.
mydoomlessaccount@infosec.pub · 2 pts · 1y
I would agree with this. The rational part of me likes to try and eat a sandwich in a 3x3 grid of bites, right-to-left, working my way downward.
But, I'm a wacky, inconsistent li'l bitch, so it almost never works out that way. But, I don't think I ever exceed 12 bites. That's a pretty solid ballpark range.
AgentGrimstone@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y
I can finish in 5, 4 if I put in a little effort, 2 if I really need to.

Etterra@lemmy.world · -2 pts · 1y
It depends on the size of your mouth, the size of bite you take, and the size of the sandwich. But if you'd cared about that you'd have realized it's a meaningless question before embarrassing yourself by asking here. So instead I'll you a meaningless answer: 37 ⅚

Don't think OP has embarrassed themselves.
