Most of us are happy to slap two pieces of bread together with a few slices of cheddar and, if we're lucky, a squirt of salad cream to make a good cheese sarnie.
But it seems the process may have just become a bit more complicated than that.
Not content with their usual figures and algebra, scientists have discovered a mathematical formula for creating the perfect cheese sandwich.

The formula:
W [1 + ((bd)/6.5)) - s + ((m-2c)/2) + ((v+p)/7t)] (100 + l/100)
W = the thickness of Cheddar in millimetres
B = The thickness of the bread
D = The dough flavour modifier
S = The thickness of margarine or butter
M = The thickness of mayonnaise
C = The creaminess modifier
V = The thickness of tomato
P = The depth of pickle
T = The tanginess modifier
I = The thickness of the lettuce layer
