Oversized sandwiches are sometimes called _dagobertmackor_ in Swedish, from
_Dagobert_, the name of said character in the Swedish translation of the comic,
and _macka_, an informal word for a sandwich (or simply a piece of bread with
cheese or whatever on).
Is there an English word for a "half" sandwich, which lacks the upper bread?
