From coast to coast, one thing unites Americans more reliably than traffic complaints and arguing over sports: sandwiches!
Every state has that one beloved handheld masterpiece that locals swear by and tourists can’t leave without trying. Whether it's smothered in sauce, stacked a mile high, or fried to golden perfection, these sandwiches are more than lunch, their identity, pride, and often, a delicious mess.
No GPS coordinates needed here. We’re talking Massachusetts icons, not hole-in-the-wall secrets. These are the undisputed sandwich champions of their regions, from the smoky pulled pork of the South to the meat-packed giants of the Midwest, and even the quirky creations only locals would dream up.
So grab a napkin and get ready to meet the sandwich that defines Massachusetts.
According to a list compiled by Vine Pair, the most famous sandwich in Massachusetts is the Fluffernutter sandwich.
Here's what Vine Pair had to say about the state's most popular sandwich:
"The kid with the fluffernutter is often the envy of every child at the elementary school lunch table, and the sweet treat is surprisingly old: Created in 1918 by Massachusetts native Emma Curtis, the peanut butter-and-Marshmallow Fluff concoction was the result of the U.S. government encouraging citizens to ration their meat intake during World War I. Curtis, who referred to the sandwich as the Liberty Sandwich, promoted the dish on recipe pamphlets and it became a beloved staple of Massachusetts cuisine."
