Some people think that it is (i'm not one of those people) but hey, maybe I'm wrong. I was also told a taco and a wrap are sandwiches. I also disagree

Thoughts? Don't turn this into some weird ass struggle session where someone gets banned it's not worth it

I have always been of the opinion that a sandwich has its ingredients added as linear planes, whereas a hotdog has its ingredients added in a radial manner about an axis. By this definition, a pizza as it is traditionally imagined has its ingredients added in a circle about its center. Therefore, a pizza is a hot dog.

Is sushi also a hotdog? ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

depends if there's hotdog in it

Behold. This is loaded top down and this therefore neither sandwich nor hot dog.

CW:meat

this is topologically a pizza

It's missing the bounded edge (crust)

This is just a circumcised hot dog

In the field of Food Onomastics, we refer to any food that is just meat and bread in an unconventional formulation as Struggle And Diet cuisine. Because that is just SAD.

But this contains multiple condiments. It has all the ingredients necessary to make it a hot dog.

[โ€“] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago (3 children)

That looks like the driest piece of meat possible, but taking your word for it, I fully agree it is a hot dog. If dipped in condiments instead, and this may be a hot take, but I would call it a nugget.

No no, you put the condiments in the bread and then you put in the sausage. The bread contains the condiments. There's usually ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise in it. (Well, not so much mayonnaise as a mayonnaise like dressing specifically for the purpose which is like half mayonnaise, a quarter sauce bernaise and the rest is onions, garlic and "curry" in whatever ratio)

Fascinating. And here I thought I had seen everything. This is scientifically interesting, as this is the missing link between an ice cream cone and the traditional hotdog. Thus, both this and ice cream cones are hot dogs.

[โ€“] Keld@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You may be on to something. Does that go for both traditional scooped ice cream and soft serve?

[โ€“] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago

More research is needed, but I would yes definitely for soft serve (due to the coil) and most likely yes for scoops

I would call it a nugget

i would agree but it's not entirely encapsulated

Great question: On the skewer a kebab is a corn dog, removed from the skewer and served on a bed of rice it is a very hearty salad

[โ€“] Blakey@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I think they may be referring to the inestimable doner kebab and its allies such as gyros, shawarma, etc.

[โ€“] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 2 points 3 months ago

Of course! How could I forget! In this case, the axis of rotation in at the bread, so that counts as a hot dog
