Classic jambon-beurre (foreground)

A jambon-beurre (pronounced [ʒɑ̃bɔ̃ bœʁ]; Error: {{language with name/for}}: missing language tag or language name (help)) is an extremely popular French ham sandwich made of a baguette sliced open, spread with butter, and filled with slices of ham.[1]

Each day in France, over 3 million jambon-beurre sandwiches are sold, more than almost any other kind of sandwich, except for fast-food hamburgers.[2]
