    No one except for someone starting week 1 of a TSOL class would ever order a "hot dog sandwich."

    Please love yourself.

      It doesn't require the word "sandwich" in the title to be a sandwich.

      BLT anyone?

        "Reuben sandwich" still makes sense to say. "Hot dog sandwich" sounds like you just got off the boat and you're reading from a tourist translation card.

        Please love yourself.

                I find it enormously tiresome when burger places refer to the burger in a bun as a sandwich.

                The Earl of Sandwich would not approve, and neither should you.

                I was only joking

                        My original post had a poll. I actually saw results!

                        What happened to it?

                          “Do you think a hot dog is a sandwich?” I asked a friend the other day, in preparation for this article.

                          “It’s not the most typical referent for ‘sandwich,’” he mused. “But if someone said, ‘We’re only having sandwiches at this event,’ I wouldn’t be surprised if I showed up and hot dogs were part of the food.”

                          “Would you be surprised if they served slices of pizza folded in half?” I asked.

                          “Yeah,” he admitted.

                          “How are those different from hot dogs?”

                          “I’ll get back to you,” he said.

                          “A hot dog meets all the necessary and sufficient conditions to make a sandwich,” another friend insisted. “It’s a thing inside two pieces of bread. The shape of the bread doesn’t matter.”

                          “But a hot dog doesn’t have two pieces of bread,” I said. “It’s one piece of bread that’s folded.”

                          “Subway sandwiches aren’t always cut the whole way through,” he countered. “But you think those are sandwiches, right?”

                          “I guess,” I said.

                                        I also noticed that polls sometimes disappear. They seem to reappear when you press "reload". I can't explain this behavior at the moment.
