Yes.
A hot dog is also a sandwich
Pretty sure flatbread predated leavened bread, so it’s reasonable to conclude tacos predated both hot dogs and sandwiches.
Conclusion: Hot dogs are tacos, sandwiches are broken tacos.
Pizza is just an open face sandwich, but arguments can be made that New York style is a taco because most people fold it to consume it.
Have to ask yourself what a calzone is then.
So sandwich is the parent category, and hot dogs are a type of sandwich? Are burgers, too?
Oh no I accidentally started researching, there is an actual British Sandwich Association that defines sandwich as “any form of bread with a filling, generally assembled cold”. The USDA, however, has different definitions for open and closed sandwiches and it depends on the percentage amounts of bread and meat… I guess if you put cheese on your bread it’s not a sandwich at all!
Heresy! I demand the BSA’s definition to be accepted and adopted everywhere! “if you put cheese on your bread its not a sandwich at all!” - this is unbeliveable and hilarious
Any form of bread with a filling, generally assembled cold
But, dare I say, does that not make a ravioli a sandwich? A poptart? Mayhaps even … Lasagna?
Ah, you proclaim! But those are cooked further!
But so too is a grilled cheese! And a patty melt!
Where will the madness end?
