    It’s missing a wrap, which would be only the front wall open.

    Always upset that #6 is “quiche” and not “pie” which is obviously the broader category

      But a pie should have a lid. If anything #7 should be pie rather than calzome.

        The lid is optional (pizza pie, pumpkin pie, quiche) I will die on this hill

          I feel like there are more kinds of pies without lids than ones with them anyway.

          None of those are pies. That’s not even heresy, just wrongness.

        A closed top pie form is called a galette.

        The open top form is pie.

          So most pies are calzones? Because most pies have lids.

      Calling a pie a quiche would upset more people. Thus quiche.

      I think a pie should have an upper crust, so it’s more of a tart. Of course, tons of common food names break this convention so maybe quiche is fine anyways

      A slice of apple pie is a taco. A slice of pumpkin pie is toast. A whole apple pie is a calzone, a whole pumpkin pie is a quiche. See how silly you sound?

      (/s, the whole thing is clearly silly)

      No, that’s a “torst” whatever the fuck that is. You have a bottom of carb and no sides or top.

      That court ruling was about Subway’s bread, but I don’t doubt McDonald’s is similar.

    I’m confused by the salad. Shouldn’t it be dozens of layers? I’m unfamiliar with whatever this meme’s progenitor was

      This is what it comes from, and this meme is a poor cut of the rules and logic, probably for space reasons.

      A salad with croutons is nachos.

    This is missing several configurations.

    Like two open and adjacent faces like a shawarma, or the inverse of two filled adjacent faces, which is a folded pizza slice

      Shawarma is a type of sushi and a folded pizza is taco

    The “sushi” should be “burrito”. That’s just one type of sushi, because what I picture when I hear “sushi” would probably be in the “toast” category (if rice counts as the “bread”)

    Sandwiches don’t necessarily need to have bread on top.

    Most sushi is not wrapped at all.
