An interface for all Sandwich type plugins.
When defining a new plugin type you need to define an interface that all plugins of the new type will implement. This ensures that consumers of the plugin type have a consistent way of accessing the plugin's functionality. It should include access to any public properties, and methods for accomplishing whatever business logic anyone accessing the plugin might want to use.
For example, an image manipulation plugin might have a "process" method that takes a known input, probably an image file, and returns the processed version of the file.
In our case we'll define methods for accessing the human readable description of a sandwich and the number of calories per serving. As well as a method for ordering a sandwich.
