Sandwiches are maybe one of the most popular, comfortable foods after pizza. They're practical and they can be made in hundreds of ways. Montanans love sandwiches as much as the next state, then why did we rank so low for our 'state sandwich'?

Just recently, Montana's best sandwich received national attention when it was mentioned in a New York Post article and compared to sandwiches in New York and Chicago. That's pretty high praise for a Montana sandwich. Unfortunately, the sandwiches at Tagliare Delicatessen in Missoula haven't yet been dubbed Montana's 'State Sandwich.' Instead, something a little more unusual was named Montana's state sandwich.

According to Ranker, Montana's state sandwich is the Rocky Mountain Oyster Sandwich, which is ranked 51st—very last—on the list of the "Best State Sandwiches."

Can't Montana Come Up with a Better Sandwich?! 

Our signature sandwich needs a little help. I get it. For a list like this they're looking for something that's unique to the state and Rocky Mountain Oysters are pretty unique to Montana, but they're a novelty. I have met people who think they taste good, but I'm guessing most people don't like them, and based on the Ranker list, that's probably the case. Even Idaho's Potato Sandwich ranked better than Montana's sandwich.

What about having some version of a Montana sandwich with steak and huckleberries? Or something beer-battered? Who do we have to talk to about this to get our state sandwich changed?

For what it's worth, we do have a 'Regional Burger' and it comes from good ol' Butte America. It's called the 'Nutbuger.' Maybe we just claim that as our sandwich? It worked for Wyoming. Their state sandwich is a Bison Burger and it ranked 12th overall.

Or maybe we'll just have to be known for making other states' sandwiches, really, really well, like these fried chicken sandwiches in Bozeman.
