    Hot dogs aren't open-faced sandwiches. The bun is split open; the sausage lies within, not atop a sole piece of bread.

    And that's not even addressing the fact that "open-faced sandwich" is an oxymoron. By that logic, a slice of [proper NY] pizza is a sandwich as much as a taco, as they are folded and consumed in the same manner, which is clearly ludicrous.

    Why would that be so ludicrous? It is meat and cheese with a lubricating sauce on bread.

    That said, I would actually argue the distinction there isn't the form factor but the cooking method. For pizza/"pizza", you start with raw dough and add toppings to it and then cook. Rather than adding toppings to a cooked dough (i.e. bread). Although I want to say there is a style of pizza that actually cooks the dough first for some reason? I am inclined to blame Chicago just because they are usually the food criminals. Also I've never actually made one but I assume at least some of the chain store sausage rolls (?) the Brits like are also starting from toppings in raw dough but... let's just say Chicago learned their food atrocities from somebody...

    But, regardless: The point is that all of these are mostly just regional/cultural equivalents of the same meals. Tacos and sandwiches mostly fulfill the same role of being a way to eat leftovers without getting your hands too messy and were popular with "lower class" workers. Soups, chilis, and curries are mostly a way to get a bunch of ingredients into an easy to cook (and leave in the pot) format that can also be stretched pretty far with stuff like rice and bread. And so forth.

    And, again, once you actually start cooking you realize this and realize how easy it is to translate skills from one cuisine to another. Flavor profiles are very different but you rapidly realize you are doing mostly the same motions when you are making a Japanese or Indian curry or a British stew and so forth. And... you can then consider different cooking vessels and the like and how that might actually work better than the traditional style (just make sure you call it "fusion" so people don't get pissy).

      NyQuil is blue flavored.

      So are blue raspberry icees.

      Icees taste like NyQuil.

        The memes are intended to show the absurdity of trying to apply strict classificationss to something as varied as food.

        This is a strict classification of why these memes fall apart.

          To be fair, I love a Greek salad, and make myself one once a week when none else is looking.

          But...a sandwich? How so?

          A quick Google has reminded me I'm specifically thinking of a Cretan greek salad: https://hungryhappens.net/dakos-salata-cretan-salad/

                  Data is the singular.

                  Literal also means figurative.

                    0.333... + 0.333... = 0.666...

                      Easy. First off:

                      Pop-tarts are calzones.

                      More fights:

                      Greek salad is fruit salad

                      Paris sucks

                      Chick-fil-A isn't actually good

                                Number values are mere suggestions that approximate measurements to a very high degree and try to quantify an infinitely variable universe

                                        I wouldn't think so. Thus, tacos aren't open-faced sandwiches. Of course, neither is a piece of cheese on a cracker, but that'll just further confuse OC.
