Opinions?

Quesadillas are pizza is the hill I am defending. Everything else I can take or leave (although I do like the "lasagna is cake" school of thought).

A hot dog bun is practically two pieces of bread, and does that mean that if your bun splits then it is definitively a sandwich? This is not a practical way to distinguish between them.

The dictionary characterizes them as sandwich, so according to the dictionary, yes it is. I guess those are just exceptions from the rule.

Well that is not the only way. Hot dogs have sausages in their cylindrical form, while sandwiches have "meat, cheese, or other filling." There really isn't much to compares. It's not like you put shredded up lettuce in your hot dogs.

my thesis was a hot dog is a sandwhich to a very moderate extent. Although it does resemble a sandwhich, it lacks the 2 pieces of bread that other types of sandwhiches have. Also it has more significance in American culture than regular sandwhiches.
