Happy National Sandwich Day, everyone! Yeah, that's a holiday. Get on board and celebrate those buns, hun!

Instead of reminding you that you're not eating a delicious sandwich right now (no one wants to be reminded of that ever), we thought we would celebrate one of the most iconic sandwich lovers of all time: Joseph Francis Tribbiani, Friends' resident sandwich king and food devotee.

Joey (Matt LeBlanc) is actually perfect to talk about on this special sandwich day, because he basically spent the entire run of the TV series speaking the damn truth about how we all feel about food.
