Most of us just use a pan to toast our sandwiches but the edges aren't
sealed and I know that's what you're getting at. I wouldn't be too
worried about eating a warm sandwich and use room temperature to cold
beans (which aren't going anywhere unless they're in soup) for it. My
beans would be Boston Baked, of course, which I prefer over that stuff
in tomato sauce. I've done it a couple of times. Bean sandwiches
aren't bad, but I tried it and moved on.
