The '''Ham Sandwich Theorem''' is a theorem in [[analysis|mathematical analysis]] stating that the volume of any three 3-dimensional objects of any shape (imagined as a slice of bread, some ham, and another slice of bread) can all be perfectly bisected with one plane.  That is, one straight slice of a knife will create two half-sandwiches, with exactly equal amounts of bread on top, equal amounts of ham, and equal amounts of bread on the bottom.  It is the three-dimensional version of the two-dimensional [[Two-Pancake Problem]].
