Yup. I'll even go farther and say a pop tart is a sandwich.
It's a sandwich if you put an asterisk after it - sandwich*
cut them in half length wise, put the 4 slices on white bread,
is that a sandwich?
That would be a hot dog sandwich. Which means a regular hotdog is not a sandwich.
Correct.
No, it would just be an odd way to eat a hot dog.
If you put ham and cheese on a round roll, or on two slices of bread, or on a long roll, it's still a fucking sandwich, and it proves nothing about ham and cheese sandwiches.

common sandwiches, such as:
BLTs (bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwiches);
club sandwiches;
cold cut sandwiches;
grilled cheese sandwiches;
peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
salad-type sandwiches (e.g., chicken, egg, ham, and tuna);
bagel sandwiches (served buttered or with spreads, or otherwise as a sandwich);
burritos
cheese-steak sandwiches;
croissant sandwiches;
fish fry sandwiches;
flatbread sandwiches;
breakfast sandwiches;
gyros;
hamburgers on buns, rolls, etc.;
heroes, hoagies, torpedoes, grinders, submarines, and other such sandwiches;
hot dogs and sausages on buns, rolls, etc.;
melt sandwiches;
open-faced sandwiches;
panini sandwiches;
Reuben sandwiches; and
wraps and pita sandwiches.
If you fold a slice of pizza when you eat it, is it a sandwich?
...where if you order "a hotdog sandwich" you will laughed out the door, or thrown out, or both.
So no.
A BLT is a sandwich, right? No one would argue that, would they?
Who the fuck is ordering a "BLT sandwich" and not just a BLT?
"Hot dog" is shorthand. You don't expect to give it to you without the bun. But when Mrs. Dunk sends me to the store to go get "hot dogs" it's just the actual hot dogs that she's asking me to buy. Not the buns or the fixings.
RE: Sandwich = contents visible on all four sides...

Hot dog = hinged bread. Not a sandwich.
So your arguing that anything made on a long roll is not a sandwich. I don't know what restaurants/delis you go to, but everyone I go to that uses hero/hoagie/grinder bread leaves the seam intact on one side, just like a hot dog bun. So neither a Philly cheesesteak not an Italian cold cut hero would be a sandwich according to you. I'd beg to differ, as would most everyone.

I'm with Bill. An Italian sub is a sandwich for sure, but it doesn't have "contents visible on all four sides" - it doesn't even have four sides!
If your definition of a sandwich is something that you have to include "sandwich" in the title of the dish in order for it to qualify, you're a simpleton. There really isn't any other way to put it.
I can rattle off dozens of non-controversial sandwiches that you never utter "sandwich" at the end of, and you wouldn't question their status.
This is facebook stupidity. A hot dog is a sausage sandwich. Hot dogs are sausages. Sorry your mommies didn't teach you that.

I think that intend matters. If something is made with the intention of picking it up in your hands to eat it, I lean to sandwich. If it's meant to be eaten with a knife and fork, so. An empanada could be a sandwich. A lettuce wrap or taco or plantain sandwich or ice cream sandwich or chicken between 2 waffles could all be sandwiches. A blintz or a calzone or stuffed cabbage, no.
RE: RE: RE: RE: I'm having a bratwurst sandwich tonight!
But they don't require the added word distinction as some other foods because of how they are almost always typically prepared in a hot dog or hamburger bun.
You can simply say your having a hot dog and everyone expects it to be in the bun as a sandwich. But if you say your having a sausage, it is odd and unclear. You need to say you're having a sausage sandwich.
Not too difficult, but let me know if some of yoos' guys continue to struggle with this...
if I feel like a hot dog and don't have hot dog buns, I'll cut them in pieces and put them on a hamburger bun, or English muffin or white bread, so that would make it a sandwich for sure, right?
Sometimes I would squish the buns down flat and pretend they were slices of bread before adding my hot dog. It helped a little, but it didn't alleviate all of my concerns (plus it was really messy if the bun was toasted).
Now, though, I don't eat any bread products at all, and I enjoy my Nathan's Famous with no anxiety whatsoever.

Most definitely. Have often just stuck a hot dog in a rolled up piece of white bread.
If it's one piece of bread it's either folded over to mimic 2 pieces of bread, or the pocket is opened, again having bread on both sides of the filling
in the charts i posted earlier it is clear that a wrap is in fact a calzone.

Yup. I'll even go farther and say a pop tart is a sandwich.

So an open faced sandwich is toast?
Is sausage and peppers on a long roll a sandwich in your opinion?
If so, is your distinction just about the type of sausage, or because you like to be contrarian?
sandwiches have horizontally flat bread
NO
Horizontally flat bread?
That's the most impressively stupid take on this debate that I've seen.
But I guess that makes a gyro a sandwich in your opinion.
