It is typical to the Brazilian state of Amazonas and is officially recognized as an intangible cultural heritage [pt] of the state capital of Manaus.
[1][2] The sandwich originated in Parintins and was popularized in Manaus by Escola Técnica Federal do Amazonas students from Parintins in the 1960s.
