Is a hot dog a sandwich?

[Mr. Carnelian]

Here's my argument for why hotdogs are NOT sandwiches

In a hotdog, the sausage is in a bun. A bun is a kind of bread, but a specific kind of bread NOT used in sandwiches.
In a sandwich, the filling is between non-bun bread.
Therefore, hotdogs are not sandwiches.

The bun typically has a deep cut in it within which the sausage nestles. The bun is ONE piece of bread.
Sandwiches involve a filling between TWO pieces of bread.
Therefore, hotdogs are not sandwiches.

Culturally, hotdogs are not generally considered sandwiches.
Therefore, hotdogs are not sandwiches.

Conclusion: hotdogs are not sandwiches.

it's the new "is soup a drink"

Also, soup is definitely not a drink.
In polite company, you eat it with a spoon.
If you NEED (I know you can use a spoon with any drink, but you don't NEED to) to use a utensil like a spoon, then it's not a drink.
