Eight-year-old Johnny loves chicken, perch, lasagna and pesto, but he refuses to eat a sandwich! Johnny's mom Linda says, "this kid has never eaten a sandwich. I think he's afraid to try a sandwich because he thinks it will taste horrible. He'll even eat a hamburger without the bun!"

Johnny's Dislikes

Sandwiches

Linda has given up trying to get her son to eat a sandwich. She's tried cutting off the crusts, using cookie cutters to make shapes, she's even resorted to bribing him with money or special trips ... all to no avail. While all his classmates eat their sandwiches in school, Johnny eats oranges, peanut butter and crackers, soup or leftovers. "I don't like bread," he says. "It's soggy."

To entice Johnny to join the rest of the sandwich-eating universe, Rachael invents two grand sammies made from all of his favorite foods; an Italian Sandwich with pesto and a Peanut Butter, Apple and Honey Wafflewich, using waffles (which he admits to eating) instead of bread!

Rachael makes him an offer no 8-year-old can resist: If he doesn't like it, he can spit it out in her hand!

He takes a bite ...

He likes it! Hey, Johnny!
