Crunchy deli sandwiches

Answer:

BLTS

Hint:

Think of a classic bacon, lettuce, and tomato trio often served on toasted bread.

Explanation:

"Crunchy deli sandwiches" points to BLTs, a classic bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich. The "crunchy" hint comes from the crispy bacon and fresh lettuce, while "deli" suggests it’s a common sandwich shop offering. The plural "sandwiches" signals the answer needs an "S" at the end, making it "BLTS" instead of just "BLT."
