Bacon Lettuce Tomato Sandwich

Bacon Lettuce Tomato Sandwich

Everyday

The Bacon Lettuce Tomato (BLT) sandwich is a classic American lunch item featuring crispy pan-fried bacon, fresh lettuce, and ripe tomato slices layered between toasted bread spread with mayonnaise. This combination balances salty, smoky flavors from the bacon against the cool crunch of lettuce and juicy acidity of tomatoes, creating a signature textural contrast. While providing moderate protein from the bacon and vitamins A/C from the tomatoes, it tends to be high in sodium and saturated fats due to processed bacon and mayonnaise. The sandwich's enduring popularity stems from its simplicity and the harmonious interplay of warm, crispy elements with cool, fresh components.
