NFT: Is a hotdog a sandwich?

meat, bread, condiments. Has all the criteria.

between a sandwich made with sliced bread and a sandwich using a roll, bun, or bagel.

How did we ever manage to get by without it? ;-)

.

because the bun is enclosed and a sandwich requires two non-connected pieces of bread. a hot dog is a hot dog.

I don't think qualifies as a sandwhich. It kinda sits on top of a split bun. there's no layering going on...unless you eat it sideways...

you might as well eat it with a side of grits.

slices of bread, connected by a thin strip of dough - if you put meat between those two slices, what would that be?

.

.

a sub a sandwich, or a hero a sandwich, or whatever you call it in your area a sandwich then a hot dog is a sandwich. a hotdog bun is just a smaller sub roll.

but who gives a fuck?

But on second thought - you'd call sausage and peppers a sandwich, and its construction is basically the same.

a hotdog is its own genre, and that's okay.

It's like a Jeep Wrangler... it's not an SUV, it's not a car, it's a Jeep. It's unique.

Them are some sammiches.
Also, the British debated this upon our celebration of our independence, like a scorned lover - ( New Window )

have some respect...

You are correct, my apologies Mattlawson, my comment was out of line.

plays a part in determining whether it's a sandwich or not. A Hotdog is kind of a pain in the ass to eat once you start adding toppings. A properly constructed sandwich should be easy to eat regardless. Hot dogs and tacos don't fit the bill when it comes to this important requirement.

So what would you call the things they serve on rye bread at a Jewish deli? :)

no

a quesidilla would be a Jeep?

to put on a hotdog? and so what if the toppings fall off and onto the floor - that's why they invented maids and pets.

...diet torpedo.

lol. But remember, onions aren't good for dogs

A hot dog is not a fucking sandwich. Anyone who thinks it is, is wrong.

Good point. If you cut the bun in half, then it's definitely a sandwich.

So if the bun breaks in half in the middle of eating it, it goes from being a hot dog to a sandwich?

Still not a sandwich. Not then, not ever. If the hotdog is allowed into the "sandwich" family, all of a sudden people who fold their pizza slices are also eating a fucking sandwich.

This kind of stuff needs strict rules otherwise people ruin the structures of everything.

hot dogs and sandwiches. End of discussion, lol.

I had just been pondering the nuances of that very matter

Is a hamburger a sandwich?

When you have to take sliced bread or slice bread or a roll in order to be able to then "sandwich" things between them feel more like a sandwich to me.

Morgan: [singing] Double Burger...double burger? Chuck, I had a double burger!

Chuckie: Would you shut the fuck up? I know what you ordered, I was there.

Morgan: So give me my fuckin' sandwich.

Chuckie: What do you mean your sandwich? I bought it. Hey Morgan how much money you got on you?

Morgan: I said I'd give you the change when we ordered the Sno-Cones when we pulled up, so why don't you give me my sandwich and stop being a prick.

Chuckie: Well why don't you give me your fucking sixteen cents you got on you and we'll put your sandwich on layaway, [puts the burger on the dashboard] there you go, keep it right up here for you. We'll put you on a program. Every day you come in with your six cents, and at the end of the week you'll have your sandwich.

Morgan: Don't be an asshole.

Chuckie: What am I? Your fuckin' sandwich welfare? I think you should establish a good line of credit. Like how you bought your couch. Payment plans. Remember? Your mother brought in ten dollars every day for a year..she finally got a couch Rent-a-Center style.

Morgan: Can I have my food now please?

Chuckie: [throws the burger at Morgan] Here's your fucking double burger!

a song?

Pizza - a sandwich? Now you're just acting insane

make a case for a hotdog being a sandwich easily or exclude it on a technicality if you're inclined based on interpretation of "filling", but it seems like it's clear that the answer is clearly yes.

Quote:

1 a : two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between

Ever run out of hotdog buns and use a slice of bread in a pinch? works perfectly well. No difference from a split bun.

I wouldn't call a burger or a dog a sandwich. I agree it's in its own category. A bun is designed especially to deliver each item, whereas a sandwich can be on a variety of breads or rolls.

Better argument is a burger since it is "technically" on two pieces of bread (though they do not come packed that way all the time.

--

Let's really argue though...I do NOT get down with "open faced" sandwiches. What a load of bullshit.

again, according to Webster, your issue comes with definition B.

According to the authority on this topic, hotdogs, hamburgers, traditional sandwiches, subs, etc. as well as open faced sandwiches are all sandwiches:

Quote:

b : one slice of bread covered with food

a bagel.

Is that a sadwich? Does the bagel disqualify it as being a sandwich?

a Wrangleer isn't an SUV? It's the original SUV. It's the definition of SUV. The others SUVs aren't SUVs. They're cars with a higher platform.

but if I go into a place and say..give me a hot dog sandwich….if they are honest they will say….what are you stupid?
You want a hot dog or a sandwich, which is it?

No never.
I can put four hotdogs in between, in the middle, between pieces of bread…that would be a hotdog sandwich. Hot dog is a hot dog bun and all dressings whatever it is never a sandwich, it's a hot dog.

But I guess I think of a sausage hero as a sandwich, so....

Can't say I think about it all that much to begin with though.

Is soup and sandwich in a coffee shop a meal?

one or the other perhaps not, depending on size…both, certainly always.
