tortillas are not bread, thus, they don't

[Clem Fandango]

Tacos are kind of like hard shelled hot dogs.

Damn.... 79 cents?

First time I had a chalupa, I ended up being nauseous to the point of dry heaving the next day ( I couldn't have been more than 10 or 11 at that point). It may not have been directly related, but I haven't had one since.

Yeah, but soft shell tacos can be rolled over and covered, thus negating its similarity to a hot dog in that you have the side barriers with meat and toppings in the middle and an open aired top, and therefore making hard shell tacos more like hot dogs.

I have a very strict definition of a sandwich. It's a sandwich if and only if the filling came from an egg or was a vegetable or Any meat must be sliced, pulled, or otherwise taken off the bone and placed between two pices of all purpose bread. If the meat is processed through grinding or extruded the resultant cannot be an ingredient for a sandwich. Tuna can be an ingredient for a sandwich because the meat is pulled. A hamburger, hotdog, toco, or anything else is not a sandwich. Anything on a bun is not a sandwich.

toco

 

 

what the hell?

[XZero771679666304]

Let's see what Merriam-Webster say:

 

1 sand·wich noun \ˈsan(d)-ˌwich, ˈsam-; dial ˈsaŋ-\

 

1

a : two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between

b : one slice of bread covered with food

 

2

: something resembling a sandwich; especially : composite structural material consisting of layers often of high-strength facings bonded to a low strength central core

 

This seems to open up a lot of possible interpretations.

[Guest]

The definition of sandwich is "something resembling a sandwich". Amazing.

[treebird]

the definition of a sandwich is [expletive] it's five o'clock what kind of moron is looking up sandwich in the dictionary anyway let's just go home

[Soul]

This is EXACTLY the kind of thread we need around here.

 

It's a sandwich.

[seanimal]

the bun distinction makes no sense to me because you have to slice the bun, therefore making it sliced bread

 

i think ultimately one must drill down to the purpose of the bread in order to truly answer this question. on a sandwich, the bread is the main ingredient and the defining form of the finished product. you can bend, break, and smear the inner ingredients every which way in order to conform to the shape of the bread. contrast this with the sausage, to whom the bread's form is subservient. furthermore, in this example, the bread's primary purpose is to free the consumer from the tyranny of silverware without soiling their digits

 

wraps, burritos, etc. are not sandwiches and only an insufferable person would think such things

You're bad at sandwiches if bread is ever the main ingredient.

Pulled pork on a bun isn't a sandwich?

 

I like your first part. Then just add it has to be on a risen bread and I'm happy with the definition.
