Is the hot dog a sandwich?

And consider: that comment came from a guy whose high school still features a gun rack!

My original post had a poll. I actually saw results!
What happened to it?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

“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.

Heck, I voted in it.

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

Is a grinder/sub/hoagie a sandwich? Is an Italian sausage in a hoagie roll a sausage? If you said yes, then how is a hot dog in a bun not a sandwich?

Is a pocketed pita filled with meat and vegetables a sandwich?
Is a lobster roll a sandwich?
Is an “open face sandwich” a sandwich?
Using meat/vegetables as the origin, must you only have bread (or bread like things) on two opposite sites of the meat/vegetables to be a sandwich?
Can you have bread on three sides and still be a sandwich?
How about bread on only one side, like the “open face sandwich”?

I see my passionate and well reasoned argument has helped turn the tide back towards the hotdog being a sandwich.
