Physics fall sandwich

Spread half-jokingly belief that sandwich is almost always falls buttered side facing down. It is not unreasonable: displacement of the center of gravity to the side of the sandwich, which is oil wet.

A possible explanation: if the sandwich bread falls down, it can bounce and roll over. And finally, the psychological effect: drop sandwich buttered side down is more negative emotsiyi therefore better deposited in the memory.

Aerodynamic qualities buttered side higher than the non buttered, due to the presence in the bread since. Therefore, the chance of turning a sandwich in the fall buttered side down is not higher than buttered.
