And Clean-Up Is a Snap!

During the course of yesterday’s two hilarious and enlightening bathroom threads, I asserted that “The only thing better than an eggplant parm hoagie is an eggplant parm hoagie and a bubble bath.” Shaker Danzig replied thusly: “LOL! That’s the funniest and the most disgusting thing at the same time!”

Fair enough. But I will point out that there is a grand tradition of bathroom sandwich-nomming, the evidence for which may be found in history:



Romans share a dormouse poor-boy (with extra lettuce!) in the baths

And in art:



Nude in the Bathtub With Small Meatball Sub, after Bonnard

Also, it's a little-known fact that the charming and elegant Cary Grant never hit the showers without some Hot Pockets in the inner breast pocket of his jazzy Italian suit.



...Wet Pockets!

Please do not knock this great ablution sandwich tradition 'til you've tried it, Shakers!

Thank you.
