Is the hot dog a sandwich?

[LuFins Dad]

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?

[Axtremus]

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 still see the poll.

I didn’t just now, then reloaded and it reappeared.

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

If you said “make me a sammich” and that person gave you a hot dog what would you think?

Thanks for getting a new avatar, Loki.

@Loki

I’d say thanks, put some mustard, onion, and relish on it, and enjoy.

Why is the motive of the hot dog of identifying as a sandwich questioned anyway? Trans-sandwiches are sandwiches.

If it's their culinary choice, who am I to argue?

Nope! Look again.
