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

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
- **Egg + Avocado**: avocado toast law: green fat under soft egg
- **Jalapeño + Cheddar Cheese**: jalapeno cheddar: green heat in sharp fat
- **Jalapeño + Avocado**: green fat against green heat, the taqueria pair

## How to raise it

- Judged as an egg and cheese: richness is not held against it.
- Between you and 90: balance 0.80 or better (0.05 short).
