More like, “Ich bin ein Wiener.”
WW2 guilt.
On a side note, the sandwich was named after the Earl of Sandwich and Wellington boots after the Duke of Wellington. Had it been the other way round, you would be eating wellingtons and wearing sandwichs.
Mick: BiggusDickus:I’m feeling a bit guilty about my reply. I was making a joke about JFK. He didn’t actually refer to donuts or otherwise during his speech. I do apologise if I came over a bit naughty there.
No worries, I took it all with a pinch of slat.
