With Earth's natural deposits of fresh bread rapidly depleting, more and more restaurants have been forced to encase their sandwiches in discarded romance novels, Brillo sponges, and chunks of drywall. Today's Groupon lets you enjoy your sandwich the way it was meant to be enjoyed. For $7, you get $15 worth of gourmet sandwiches, salads, soups, wraps, and more at Crumb Gourmet Deli in Eden Prairie. If you redeem between the hours of 2 p.m. and 8 p.m., you'll also get an additional $10 in coupons from Crumb Gourmet Deli. The deli is closed on Sundays and open until 8 p.m. every other day of the week.

Crumb Gourmet Deli—like a kindergarten chemist stirring together wheat flour, linseed oil, and red ink to make his own finger paint—uses only the freshest ingredients. The deli's culinary constructors use top-notch fixings to create the restaurant's soups, salad dressings, and sauces, with all cuts of meat slow-roasted and slow-danced without nitrates or artificial additives. Customers can order from Crumb Gourmet Deli's selection of hot and cold sandwiches ($5.95–$6.95) or build their own bread-bookended creation ($6.95) and give it a wacky, creative name such as "The Oven-Roasted Turkey with Light Mayo, Dijon Mustard, American Cheese, and Romaine on Multi-Grain Bread" or the "The Burton Gilliam." Crumb Gourmet Deli also wields wraps, slings salads, serves soups, and confers combinations of sandwiches, soups, and salads. Adults who have accidentally swapped bodies with kindergartners and vice versa can opt for a healthy item from Crumb Gourmet Deli's kids' menu, which offers milk or a fountain drink and fresh fruit or chips with each order.

While you can buy one Groupon for yourself, you can buy three more as gifts, so treat your cutest coworkers or homeliest homebodies to a lunch of fresh gourmet grub at Crumb Gourmet Deli.
