Perhaps in the nutritional components and their relation to RDA, with a few chapters on the development and biases of the RDA itself. I would suggest an in-depth analysis of differences in gastric chemistry of test subjects, relating that to the overall nutritional effectiveness of the components of the sandwiches, with a differentiation study of male/female, Anglo, Asian, etc. You will, of course, want to pay special attention to the residue of the test products as well as blood chemistry of the test subjects. Bonus points for the changes of those chemistries with bulimia. Then, of course, you need a thesis and you need to demonstrate that it actually does - or could - make a difference somewhere by designing and doing a project. Give it a year to set up after you have mastered the chemistry and nutrition involved, identified levels of sandwich use in different communities, and found an accredited degree granting institution that will monitor the program and grant the degree. As a bonus, as Larry the cable guy suggests, at least teach the ESL fast food connections you make some d**m English, such as the proper way to say sammich. Good luck. You can also get a doctorate for $20 or so over the internet if that seems too much effort ... Seek for hidden meaning in the third sentence ... BillR
