Tina Fey, Liz Lemon sandwich

Leave it to a Philly girl to show the world what it really means to love sandwiches. Last week, in the critically acclaimed, utterly hilarious 30 Rock, Tina Fey’s character Liz Lemon rattled off the following raison d’etre:

All of humankind has one thing in common: the sandwich. I believe that all anyone really wants in this life, is to sit in peace and eat a sandwich.

But this isn’t the first time Fey has professed her love for the sandwich. In the second season of the show, the cast celebrates “Sandwich Day” when Teamsters bring in sandwiches for the office from a secret shop in Brooklyn. When Liz Lemon realizes her coworkers have devoured her sandwich, all hell breaks loose:

Lemon follows up with:

I don’t know how, but you’re gonna get me another sandwich. Or I’m gonna cut your face up so bad, you’ll have a chin. YOU’LL ALL HAVE CHINS!

Finally, in last night’s episode, Lemon tackles a gigantic sandwich as seen above. So, we salute you Tina Fey, as a lover of sandwiches, we welcome you into our arms; a warm embrace of salty meats, cheeses and condiments.
