This question has been killing me for a while now. Oddly enough, I hear it all the time when I'm listening to an Atlanta sports talk radio station. It came up again last night and I wondered if I would ask it on here, since I haven't already seen it. Also, July 4th is coming up soon so I'm pretty sure there will be a ton of people eating these things in the near future.

But is a hot dog a sandwich? Yeah its wrapped in bread, and you can cover it in condiments. Its also just as American a food as lets say a hamburger. And I know a lot of people around me that think the same thing ... and that is they say "No. Its just a hot dog." From what I have seen from this so far, the people on both sides have great points. You need the bread in order to make the hot dog complete, but that's just the thing. Its not actually called a sandwich ... its just "hot dog." I'm not sure what to think.

Help me out here!

Whaaaaa, I guess a hot-dog is a sandwich by definition, though I've never really thought about it! That's super funny to think about though lol.
I guess apparently anything that consists of meat or cheese (or even other fillings?) between 2 or more slices of bread or a split roll, is considered a sandwich. Does that mean a hotdog is technically more of a sandwich than an ice cream sandwich?
This is such a strange yet interesting question.

p.s. I did not know cakes and wafers were considered to be bread.

Uh, I am pretty sure a sandwich would have to involve at least a slice of bread, but hot dogs have buns of bread instead of slices, so pretty sure the answer is no. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

A hotdog is absolutely a sandwich. Mind you, it's closer to an open-faced sandwich, but it's still a sandwich. It also resembles a taco, which IS considered a sandwich.

tldr a hotdog is a sandwich and so is a poptart

  this to me is a rather interesting question while I have never considered a hot dog to be a sandwich since sandwiches are usually made with bread instead of buns I guess it all depends on how people look at it some can say it,s a sandwich while others will say it,s a hot dog but one thing is certain and that,s that pretty well the same condiments can be used for both such as mustard relish or ketchup

PoptartSlayerXD : But a hamburger is on a bun, too. The difference between a hamburger bun and a hotdog bun is simply the shape and the fact that a hamburger bun is cut in two and a hotdog bun is only partially cut open. We also have to take into account the fact that taking a single slice of bread, putting something on it and folding it in half, like I almost always do, still qualifies as a sandwhich. That means that, in principle, both a taco and a gyro are sandwiches, too.

According to the definition of a sandwich, "an item of food consisting of two pieces of bread with meat, cheese, or other filling between them, eaten as a light meal.", no, a hotdog is not a sandwich.

The hotdog bun is only 1 conjoined piece of bread, and are not meant to be ripped apart into two different halves.

By that definition, hamburgers are sandwiches, but tacos are not.

So no, I don't feel a hotdog is a sandwich.


Also, what show were they talking about this on

A hot dog is a sandwich.

Anyone who says otherwise is in direct opposition to NASA.

And if you want to die on that hill, go for it.

Moss- The intention for most of those is for them to be separated, but if they were made to not be separated, by definition, they aren't sandwiches.

When you put it that way, I suppose it makes sense. In that case, maybe it's more of a wrap...?

The hotdog itself could be a sandwich if it's inside of a corn coating like a corndog, yknow.

It's kind of bready-ish?

Thoughts?

Barathemos : I am pretty sure that you have heard of 92.9 The Game here in ATL. I kid you not, the topic comes up more times than you would think.

I don't know if you listen to it or not, but just yesterday Wendy Adams and John Chuckrie were having a pretty good debate about it. Wendy thought it was a sandwich and John thought it wasn't. It was actually kind of entertaining. Then they stopped for a minute and John said "Wait ... why are we even talking about this?" lol

yoshirulez! : At that point, it would just be battered and fried and wouldn't be a wrap OR a sandwich. You would still have to but the corndog between two pieces of some other bready substance, from my understanding. Otherwise, a crispy chicken sandwich would be sandwich-ception.

m0ssb3rg935 :
Barathemos : Actually according to Merriam Webster a hotdog qualifies as a sandwich.
A sandwich, say they, is "a : two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between
b : one slice of bread covered with food"
In which case, a hotdog would be a sandwich, but a taco would not.

yoshirulez! : Again, going by MW's definition, nah, I'd have to say a corndog wasn't a sandwich. They taste better than sandwiches though...this coming from a vegetarian, yes.



My opinion: yes, hotdogs are most definitely sandwiches.

A strange topic for debate and logic...

Anyway, no hot-dogs are not sandwiches. They are made of 2 or more slices of bread (separated) with stuff inside - that's why a hamburger fits the definition. Besides, different kinds or similar meals (burrito, taco, wrap) have different names for a reason: they are not quite sandwiches

Hot Dogs are sausages... as in from Germanic area foods while sandwich was originally from the earl of sandwich as in English food.  There's actually a good history of the hot dog on consumerist.  Wieners are from the recipe from Austria leaning frankfurters are more along the Frankfurt Germany recipe though seems there's region/brand variation on the recipes

Even though by definition they are sandwhiches, I personally say they are not sandwhiches. I can't go to a sandwhich shop and ask for a hot dog, can I?

My definition of a sandwich is food inbetween bread, so if you eat a hot dog with a bun I'd consider it a sandwich. Some people say there are 2 slices of bread that make up a sandwich, but look at Subway.

Hot dogs are basically a meat sandwich to me.
