What’s more, in perusing I found that there were no sandwich-related expressions that denote the difficulty of a particular task. ![]() However, I find that this is a stretch, especially given how lovely the moviemaking process seems to have been. If we go this route, perhaps we can assume that Winslet was referring back to del Toro’s quote about moviemaking. In other words, Winslet was saying, “This was a little complicated not a simple task, like eating a sandwich.” (Which is not to cast doubt on the existence of choreographed, simulated oral sex, merely that the choreographed, simulated oral sex was compared to the consumption of a classic midday meal.) Not everyone agreed with us, though, and postulated that the sandwich comment was a reference to creating the scene itself. ![]() My colleague Madeleine Aggeler agreed, noting that Winslet’s description “sounds like me in middle school describing how I think sex goes.” Upon reading this line, I figured that in saying, “It’s definitely not like eating a sandwich,” Winslet was referring to performing oral sex on a woman, which indeed, is definitely not like eating a sandwich.
