Sandwich Score  
out of 100 · very good

Very good, with one move worth +13.

**Holding the summit:** a third role on the board (an acid, a sauce, an aroma or a crunch)

The seven flavor axes of the whole sandwich, each summed across its layers. The shaded ring is the catalog's middle 80%; the small number under each axis is where this sandwich falls in the catalog. A shape that sits inside the ring is in the range most sandwiches live in; a spike past it is where this one stands apart.

## What each layer brings

| Layer                           | Role    | Flavor and texture                    | Points     |
| ------------------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------- | ---------- |
| plain bagelscored as Bagel      | bread   | soft chewy                            | the frame  |
| scrambled eggscored as Egg      | protein | fat 3 umami 2 soft creamy springy     | **+25**    |
| choice of breakfast meat        |         |                                       | not scored |
| cheddarscored as Cheddar Cheese | protein | fat 4 salt 3 umami 3 soft gooey melty | **+29**    |

Points: what the Sandwich Score would lose if that one layer were left out, everything else the same. A negative number means the sandwich scores higher without it. Flavor runs 0 to 5 on each axis.

## Pairings

- **Egg + Cheddar Cheese**: cheddar melts into soft egg, diner law

## How to raise it

- Judged as an egg and cheese: richness is not held against it.
