It was long said that he invented the food to sustain himself while gambling without having to eat a full meal, but his biographer Rodger points out that the sole source of this rumour was gossip mentioned in a travel book by Grosley, and that at the period in question (1765) he was known to be very busy, and it is just as likely that it was for the purpose of eating at his desk. As well sandwiches can be presumed to have been eaten long before this. For instance in the Passover meal Jews make a sandwich of two pieces of unleavened bread and bitter herbs.

Well no, that's not right at all. A bird is not a plane. A hamburger is a sandwich. See the difference?
If the handicapped person said "Look at the avian thing" that would be closer.
