What is a "radar sandwich"?
a segment on the food kiosks was shown.
During the 1950's, one kiosk featured something called a "radar sandwich",
but the program didn't elaborate as to what it was.
I found a few auction websites that show an art deco-like machine,
which looks like a milkshake maker, but, again, no explanation as to what it does!
Anyone know what a "radar sandwich" is and why it's called that?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

“ modern” term for heat element cooking, like the amana radar range. This was the precursor to the sandwich maker of our generation. It was a new way to cook and heat sandwiches. It was introduced at the Kentucky fair at a Kiosk booth for new and modern kitchen equipment. Some restaurants were exclusive to these, like a White Castle or Krystal since the equipment was expensive. It was unique to walk around the fair with the radar sandwich. Roast beef, Turkey were the most common meat fillings.
