Is a Hot Dog a Sandwich?

Jelly wobbles too much.
Jam however can be spread on bread.

This could be a repost but a hot dog is more often a taco according to this theorem.

(Pasty should replace calzone in pure vocabulary terms though)

 

[Wiegert]

I'm expecting questions along the lines of "Does that make lasagna a cake?" or "Has Greggs been a sushi specialist all along?" after seeing that.

That makes a sandwich wrap sushi though and a burrito a calzone.

No its not. If a hot dog is a sandwich, why would you call it hot dog and not sandwich?

 

[Jimlaad43]

Toast? You can make an open sandwich with bread and it has to be classed as toast?
No no no.

Also a Calzone never has sides. What you're looking at there is a Pie. Quiche is just a specific type of Flan, so flan makes sense as that name too.

nevermind

Sandwich wraps only have one open end, though. It's not accounted for on that chart.

I think gyros are considered sushi here because, while they taper, they don't actually enclose at the bottom. The foil/paper is enclosed, but it's not edible (...really).

Cannoli are sushi per the chart. "Leave the gun. Take the sushi."

Edit: Oh, ****, sandwich wraps are quiche.

Or, and hear me out, sushi is a wrap. The cube is misnamed for its general descriptor.

Sushi is a wrap.
Cannoli is a wrap.
Chicken wrap is a... uh, wrap.

Pigs In a Blanket = Sushi

Does that chart make a burger a cake?

Hoagies and heroes are varieties of sandwich. Those names replace "sandwich." Point of fact, all three (hoagie, hero, hot dog) use a single continuous piece of bread to contain their fixings.

Or, and hear me out, sushi is a wrap. The cube is misnamed for its general descriptor.

Sushi is a wrap.
Cannoli is a wrap.
Chicken wrap is a... uh, wrap.

This one doesn't seem appropriate. I've never seen a wrap that didn't have one end tucked in so that it can be held vertical without everything falling out, and there isn't enough friction between the contents and their wrapping (as with connoli and sushi) otherwise.

Does that chart make a burger a cake?

A burger with three or more buns will be a cake. Two will just be a sandwich. The classification of the food is based on the locations of the starch in a meal.

So a rice cake is toast?

I believe puffed rice cakes would be considered toast. I'm a little unsure about what tteokbokki would be, however.

I had to look that up. I hadn't considered that but I was consdering crispy fried sushi rice cakes in addition to puffed rice cakes.

I'd imagine tteokbokki would be considered similar to pasta for the purposes of this discussion, whatever pasta is considered. Tubular pasta--such as penne and elbows--would probably be sushi, but what bout long noodles?

Edit: Lasagna is cake.

Subsequent edit: Duh. The graphic posted above says lasagna is cake. I'm tired, okay? God! Stop yelling at me!

 

[Daniel]

Looking further down the Cube Rule website, I think tteokbokki and noodes would all be considered nachos. They're all smaller pieces of starch that contribute towards a larger meal as a whole.

You could argue that tubular pasta -- depending on how much food is inside each individual piece-- would either be nachos, sushi or a hybrid of the two.

What's confusing about it?

It's very simple.

• Pizza is toast.
• A hot dog is a taco.
• Steak is a salad.

 

[TexRex]

I suppose French onion soup is toast.

No, steak is toast.

Where's the starch?

Where's the starch?

Good question

 

[Daniel]

Steak by itself is a salad because there is no core 'starch' present.

If it was steak on potatoes then I believe that would be considered toast.
