Hot dogs aren’t open-faced sandwiches. The bun is split open; the sausage lies within, not atop a sole piece of bread.
And that’s not even addressing the fact that “open-faced sandwich” is an oxymoron. By that logic, a slice of [proper NY] pizza is a sandwich as much as a taco, as they are folded and consumed in the same manner, which is clearly ludicrous.
I wouldn’t think so. Thus, tacos aren’t open-faced sandwiches. Of course, neither is a piece of cheese on a cracker, but that’ll just further confuse OC.
I like to think it’s angry spez not wanting good content here. He has a bunch of alts here that he has minions downvote with, while he stands over their shoulder micromanaging what they downvote.
Why would that be so ludicrous? It is meat and cheese with a lubricating sauce on bread.
That said, I would actually argue the distinction there isn’t the form factor but the cooking method. For pizza/“pizza”, you start with raw dough and add toppings to it and then cook. Rather than adding toppings to a cooked dough (i.e. bread). Although I want to say there is a style of pizza that actually cooks the dough first for some reason? I am inclined to blame Chicago just because they are usually the food criminals. Also I’ve never actually made one but I assume at least some of the chain store sausage rolls (?) the Brits like are also starting from toppings in raw dough but… let’s just say Chicago learned their food atrocities from somebody…
But, regardless: The point is that all of these are mostly just regional/cultural equivalents of the same meals. Tacos and sandwiches mostly fulfill the same role of being a way to eat leftovers without getting your hands too messy and were popular with “lower class” workers. Soups, chilis, and curries are mostly a way to get a bunch of ingredients into an easy to cook (and leave in the pot) format that can also be stretched pretty far with stuff like rice and bread. And so forth.
And, again, once you actually start cooking you realize this and realize how easy it is to translate skills from one cuisine to another. Flavor profiles are very different but you rapidly realize you are doing mostly the same motions when you are making a Japanese or Indian curry or a British stew and so forth. And… you can then consider different cooking vessels and the like and how that might actually work better than the traditional style (just make sure you call it “fusion” so people don’t get pissy).
Just like chili is a stew (which is a very thick soup) and hot dogs (and tacos) are open faced sandwiches and so forth.
Pretty much all of these memes fall apart if you at all know how to cook. Which is probably why they are so lasting.
The memes are intended to show the absurdity of trying to apply strict classificationss to something as varied as food.
This is a strict classification of why these memes fall apart.
Angry upvote

Do people fold open faced sandwiches??

Why are people downvoting us? Are open faced sandwiches such a controversial issue?

IDFK, people get real fuckin’ weird about this shit.

Man, you managed to take a fun fake argument and add some sly insults. Good job.
Anyway, parbaking is a thing
They’re small sausage heroes or hoagies, which are types of sandwiches.
Yes, hot dogs are indeed sausage sandwiches.
