Adjustable sandwich holder for sandwiches made with thin breads

Abstract

A sandwich holder that includes an elongated strip having two opposite ends, i.e., a first end and a second end. The sandwich holder includes an intermediate portion between the two opposite ends. A slot is included, and that slot is generally adjacent to the first end of the elongated strip. At least two tabs are generally adjacent the second end of said holder, and each of these tabs are generally interlockable with the slot. These tabs are preferably of a generally triangular configuration. The sandwich holder includes edge portions, and these edge portions are disposed on two of the three sides of each of the triangular tabs. These edge portions are parallel with peripheral, lengthwise sides of the intermediate portion. The sandwich holder preferably has between three and seven tabs, but may have more or fewer tabs. The triangular tabs of the sandwich holder have a third side, and this third side has a greater length than the length of the slot.
