Jon Chonko’s (@scanwiches) favorite sandwich is the one he’s going to eat next. “Sandwiches are something you can take a risk on,” the designer from Brooklyn, New York says. “You can specialize them to your tastes, your preferences, your mood at the time. Whatever you want to put inside of one, you can.” Jon started documenting sandwiches — cut in half, photographed with a scanner, of course — in 2009 to encourage himself to be more of an adventurous eater. He has never scanned the same sandwich from the same place more than once. And, Jon doesn’t spend extra time thinking about scans of sandwiches past. “I don’t think it’s necessarily healthy to be nostalgic about sandwiches,” he says. “The next one could be the best ever.”
