Iowa Time Machine: Maid-Rite of Muscatine

Iowa Time Machine ⏰: On May 1, 1926, the first Maid-Rite sandwich shop opened in Muscatine. Local Butcher Fred Angell combined a special cut and grind of meat with a secret set of spices to create the famous Iowa sandwich. When he tested it out on a local delivery man who quipped, “Fred, you know this sandwich is made right,” an American icon was born. #Iowa #IowaHistory MaidRite #Food #History #Discover #Learn
