Obviously not.

A sandwich is 2 slices of bread with shite in between them. How is this even a question

A hot dog is essentially a piece of meat and condiments between bread...

It is one, solid piece of bread that has a slit in the top that you put stuff in. It is not 2 pieces of sliced bread.

The only thing I would ever call "a sandwich" is what I said above.

A philly cheesesteak is the same premise as a hot dog, it's 1 piece with a cut in it that you put stuff in...that's a cheesesteak.

What about places like Subway? that's also just 1 piece of bread with a cut in it you put stuff in...I'd just call that a sub.


In no way is a hot dog a sandwich. It may be because I've been drinking a little bit, but I'm slightly rustled that this is even a question.

Not necessarily.

A hot dog outside of the bun is still a hot dog.

Take the bread away and a sandwich is no longer a sandwich.

No.


Because you eat them in a bun, not regular bread slices. Unless you forget to buy the buns when you're at the store.

It's a fricking hot dog. You act like anything you put in your mouth has to be a sandwich. There are other categories of food.

Hell yes a hot dog is a sandwich. So is a lobster roll, by the way.

So what you're saying is any entree that involves bread and meat is a sandwich..got it.

A cheesesteak stands alone, it is simply a cheesesteak. It is not a sandwich.

A hot dog is merely a hot dog. It's not a got damn sandwich.

So you're saying some random guy in rural Georgia gets to redefine what constitutes the largest group of foods? Got it.

A hot dog (also spelled hotdog) is a cooked sausage, traditionally grilled or steamed and served in a sliced bun as a sandwich.[2][3][4][5]


Meat, bread, condiments? Yep, that's a sandwich.

We've got ourselves a barn burner here so far. 10 up arrows to 9 down arrows.

I'd like to hear our presidential candidates opinions on this debate

Inside the 285 perimeter of Atlanta is rural? Learn something new everyday I suppose. I wonder what constitutes urban in your world?

I never said I shoudl be the ultimate worldwide authority, I'm giving my opinion as asked for by the OP. Also think it's funny that you post a link as your definitive proof...from wikipedia, a website that any "random guy in rural [wherever]" can edit as they so chooose


How bout the dictionary.com definition of a sandwich?

quote:

two or more slices of bread or the like with a layer of meat, fish, cheese, etc., between each pair.
