Pronunciation: sand switch er roo

Sentence: Hungry Harry made sure he got to the lunchroom early every day, before his co-workers arrived. His mission was to pull the old sandswicheroo trick. He always brought the same thing, a sandwich made of buttered white bread and swapped it for a more interesting concoction. He had previously enjoyed hummus and veggies on pita, pate on rye, hearty chicken salad, roast beef and provolone and his all-time favourite after holidays, turkey sandwiches. He'd swap then eat at his desk and although many complained, no one could prove he had done the old sandswicheroo once again. This was especially galling to his colleagues, who, like he, all worked at FBI Headquarters!

Etymology: Sandwich (two (or more) slices of bread with a filling between them)& Switcheroo (trick where one thing is sneakliy swapped for another)
