The beauty of sandwiches is that you can eat them anywhere. No knife, fork, or plate required; just some bread to transport the ingredients into your mouth. Now, you don't even need bread! Just slip on a pair of Bread Gloves and turn anything into a sandwich. I'd like to wear these as reinforcements next time I eat an Italian beef sandwich at Al's.

I think waffle sandwiches are divine, and at least one member of the Wu-Tang clan agrees.

A RZA burger is a veggie patty with a fried egg, cheese, lettuce, pickles and all that, smashed between two delicious waffles. Spread mustard and mayo on it with a little butter and put that shit together. Trust me, son, that shit needs to be in stores.

The blogger behind Eudaimonia recently re-created the recipe, pictured above, with a garden burger, a fried egg, cheese, caramelized onions, and a leftover chile relleño from Chevy’s. My mouth is watering, making me think I've been remiss is not putting veggie burgers on waffles. The leftover chile relleño is similarly brilliant. Would you eat it?
