NoSaint Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 I'll vote that it is, despite never calling it one. If you expand out to sausage instead of just the very specific hot dog I think you see more people use the term sandwich

stevestojan Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 A sub is much more of a sandwich than a hot dog will ever be.

A hot dog on a bun with toppings is in the sandwich family regardless of what it's called or whether anyone thinks of it as one.

Sub is and has always been short for submarine sandwich.

Ergo, a hot dog is not a sandwich, since it is placed in a split roll. Agreed. And if you cut a bun in half for a burger, it still isn't a sandwich either. A beef on weck is not a sandwich. A french dip (who cares, it's french!) Anything served between two slices cut from a loaf of bread would constitute a sandwich. Submarines (grinders, hoagies, etc) are often miss-classified as sandwiches too.

hondo in seattle Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 A sandwich consists of slices of ingredients (meat, cheese, tomato, etc.) on slices of bread. A hot dog is a particular sausage on a bun. It is not a sandwich but it is a close relative. A subway sandwich is a sandwich and not a hot dog (despite the way the bread is cut) because it follows the sandwich script more closely: slices of ingredients on slices of bread.

So you're taking issue with the tubular construction rather than slices. Good point. Speaking of slices, if you have a piece of pizza with sausage and peperoni, and fold it over to prevent flopping so you can eat it, does it become a sandwich? I know a sandwich when I see it. Hot dogs and pizza are not on the sandwich list.

I left with a much better feeling about TJ Brennan, and solidified the obvious conclusion that a hot dog is not a sandwich, especially with the horizontal and vertical distinction.

Key word is sandwich. All don't have meat. doesn't have a plant item, yet they're called a sandwich. The word you have to pay attention to is sandwich. Don't know why people keep saying sandwiches need to have a particular ingredient in it. I can put pieces of apple, in between bread and call it an apple sandwich. Manure in between bread, manure sandwich. Not that difficult. Edited November 7, 2015 by QuoteTheRaven83
Augie Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 ...and there is no hot dog sandwich. Thank you.
stevestojan Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 The fact that one single person here can argue that a hot dog is actually a sandwich makes me question TBD more than anyone supporting Rob Johnson.
