Etymology: From bánh (“pastry, cake, bread, dumpling, noodle, wafer, or pudding”) + mì (“wheat”). A folk etymology claims that bánh mì is a corruption of French pain de mie; however, this is obviously false, see the entry for bánh. An 1898 dictionary defines Vietnamese miche as bánh tây, a now-dated term for Western-style bread.
