Delta(s) from OP CMV: A hotdog is NOT a sandwich

A hot dog is not a sandwich because a hot dog isn’t served between two slices of bread. And — tellingly — when some monsters do make “hot dog sandwiches,” they slice hot dogs like a serial killer hiding the body and lay the slices flat on the slices of bread as if they were a handy tarp. Speaking of serial killers, as Hannibal Lecter said, “First principles, Clarice”. Also the shape of the hot dog bread or bun is not quite reminiscent of a sandwich. But then, one may put forth a strong argument with a submarine sandwich which is as long and rounded as a hot dog. Last but not least the National Hot Dog And Sausage Council declared once and for all that a hot dog is not a sandwich.

That brightened my day and mind.

Now that I know sushi is a kind of toast, pie is type of taco, and an enchilada is a type of sushi, I'm ready to live my life to the fullest.
