By that definition, hot dogs seem to qualify as sandwiches |

It’s quite funny in that the definition is ostensibly, precariously balanced upon if the roll is cut all the way through, resulting in two slices - a subsequent technical sandwich, or else merely scored (half) open in which case it is technically not (by strict definition).
I have now befuddled myself…. |

Actually….and just to confuse matters further; if one takes a filling of choice and puts it on one piece of bread before folding it over to make a half (but not cutting it), is it still technically a sandwich bearing in mind it is still only ONE slice of bread….?

"No way is it a sandwich, would you class a burger as a sandwich ? No , and it's in the same category as a burger "
In which case…. Why is a burger in a bun not a sandwich… but a chicken in a bun is called a sandwich
Just had a lightbulb moment |

I’ve done some serious research (well….a minute or so worth anyway)
The official line from a certain Mr Jim Winship, the director of the British Sandwich Association: ‘We don't consider a hot dog to be sandwich.’
The plot thickens! |
