Cookies are not sandwiches. They are cookies. Sandwiches are not cookies. They are sandwiches.

Hope this clears things up

Short answer: No.

Long answer: No.

However, assuming bottles and baby food count as "meals", I've eaten a minimum of 76,650 meals. (70*365*3=76,650)




Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

No, but slowly working on it. I had two this week.

I miss Harry Chapin.

I eat a lot of Subway meatball sandwhiches. If the footlong are cut in half and each half is consumed at a different meal, do they count as separate sandwiches?

Three a day here. So no, probably nowhere near even a third of that amount.

That sounds like a fine day in Scranton. The next morning must have been an ordeal.

Do ice cream sandwiches count towards the total, because that could drive the numbers up?

Mmmm.... ice cream sandwich.

Interesting how people think. The first equation I calc'ed was 40,000/365=109.6 years @ 1 sandwich a day.

I said no, because at my age it would be about 9 sandwiches a week. I eat a lot of sandwiches, but not that many. I would own up to 20,000 or maybe even 25,000, but not 40,000.
