Sandwich Score  
out of 100 · rough

Rough, with one move worth +13.

More salt than 90% of the catalog.

Each bar is one pillar of the score, 0 to 100\. The tick marks what a sandwich at the summit needs; an amber bar is the one holding this sandwich back.

**french toast slices**, toasted: ham; turkey; cheese; powdered sugar.

Worth a look: ingredient not in the pantry: Powdered Sugar.

**73** Balance, out of 100

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.

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.

## How to raise it

Commodity bread (white bread): nothing on the board changes that, and 90 is closed.
