After a nice morning at the beach or midday lunch break, Jupiter has great options for delicious sandwiches. We can thank Edward Montagu, known as the inventor of the sandwich. Nevertheless, the first food item called sandwich was in the first century BC and Rabbi Hillel the Elder. During Passover, he placed roast lamb, nuts, and vegetables between two old pieces of unleavened bread.

The sandwich as we know it was popularized in England in 1762 by John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich. During a particularly long gambling binge, he asked the house cook to bring him something he could eat without getting up from his seat, and the sandwich was born.

Try any of the following five eateries for a tasty sandwich in Jupiter.
