a sandwich is 2 pieces of bread with something in between.
even more defined.. a sandwich is two SLICES of a loaf of bread with something in between...

a hotdog is is a a single piece of bread, folded around a thing.
(either cut half open bun, or a U shaped bun to start with)
and even if somebody assembled it wrong and cut in halve the bun.. thats still not two SLICES of bread.

so not a sandwich.

Merriam-Webster defines a sandwich as, "two or more slices of bread, or a split roll, having a filling in between". :csd2smile:

The real question here is if two slices of buttered bread make a sandwich. :citizensurprised:

personally I always considered a sandwitch "more than 1 filling' but thats for dutch.

so two slices of bread + butter and 1 topping = just what we call a boterham
if it has TWO or more slices or topping.. or has a third slice of bread in between... than it is a sandwich..
-> butter (or margerine) just as sauces.. are seen a condiment.. not a topping.
jelly however is a topping.


but thats a dutch defenition.. after all cumcumber sandwiches are a classic and those contain nothing but butter and cumcumber aka just 1 topping...

disagree a split bun is not a sandwich.. it specificly have to be two slices of a sliced loaf of bread.. as it was intented by Lord sandwitch himself as he invented this snack on his english noble estate to serve his guests..

one can even argue that if the bread is cut trough straight.. instead of diagonal if it is still a sandwitch... for well properly prepared it must be a triangle..

But what if you use two slices of bread for the cut-up hot dog? :csd2smile:

than it would be a hot-dog sandwich indeed.

give it a nice packaging... printed on brown paper.. like hipsters like..

next use some fancy bread... say frenshly home-baked naturally leavened sourdough whole-grain
(you buy it pre-leaved and frozen only finish the bake at home... but thats not what you tell them)

next you buy organicly sourced, hotdogs, made from free range annimals
(it's still ground down udder and ers and eyes but well they not have to know that)

than you look on your jar of mustard and make up something to sell it like :

french dion mustard
or
locally sourced, traditonally made mustard

same with your catsup (and yes write it like that)
***natural catsup*

and now you can start selling your :

I was thinking that a whole loaf of bread is indeed considered a roll in itself.

it's square.. not roll... (in fact a loaf thats squared instead of classic rounded on top (aka when the tin is baked with a lid on top instead of open).. is called sandwich-bread)

but even if I let that slide.... if you have a loaf of bread... in standard 24 slices.... than actually you get 11 sandwiches out of it.. as well the ends?? those cannot be used to make a sandwich.. that would be improper.

so perhaps the middle slice of a big mac.. if you use 2 of those with something in between... would count as a sandwich..
but NOT the top and bottom of them..
(thoug it does break the rule a sandwich must be diagonally cut)

so you likely still have to cut some pieces off to make it work.

Wikipedia says:

"In the 21st century there has been considerable social media debate over the precise definition of sandwich, and specifically whether a hot dog or open sandwich can be categorized as such"

Really...? CONSIDERABLE debate? This is some serious business!

[GunsForBucks]

I don't think any more proof is needed...
