If a sandwich not typically served with cold toppings is ordered that way, how should the toppings be placed?

When a sandwich is ordered with cold toppings that typically aren't served that way, placing the toppings down the center of the roll is the most appropriate method. This approach helps maintain the structural integrity of the sandwich, ensuring that the toppings are contained and easier to manage while eating. It also allows for a more balanced distribution of flavors without overwhelming any one side of the sandwich, which can enhance the overall eating experience.

While evenly distributing toppings could seem logical in some cases, it might lead to spillage or messiness, especially if the sandwich is not designed for such toppings. Positioning the toppings on one side may create an imbalance, which could make it difficult to enjoy the sandwich as intended. Similarly, stating that it is "not allowed" does not consider that customers might have their preferences, and taking the initiative to accommodate those preferences by following the proper placement makes for better customer service and satisfaction.
