Why is it a subway sandwich?

Why wouldn't it be a sandwich? Sounds like you have been reading to much pro burrito propaganda.

That's not a sandwich, it's a sub. A sandwich is made from sliced bread, not from a bun. That's why a sausage sanga is a sandwich but a hot dog isn't. Hot dog has a bun, disqualifying it.

That's not a sub, that's an underground metropolitan transportation system. A sub is a little train that goes in tunnels under the city.

that's not a sub, that's a submissive person in a sexual context

That’s not a sub, that’s a person who teaches the class when your regular teacher is absent. A sub is a long metal tube that’s underwater and full of seamen.

the other sub might also be full of se(a)men

Ham Sandwich

Someone please correct Ben's BBQ. I don't even want to think about pulled pork sandwiches.

Did you know a bun is sliced bread?

A sub is a sandwich. Any starchy food with things inside is a sandwich.

TIL tortellini is a sandwich.

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 1 year ago

Yes. It's a wet sandwich. Like a bao, but boiled instead of steamed.

Wait a minute, a calzone is a pizzussy, not a sandwich surely? Scientists worldwide would be baffled by this revelation

You're saying nachos are a pile of sandwiches?
