When everything is a sandwich, nothing is a sandwich.

It's always annoyed me when I hear someone call a hamburger a "hamburger sandwich".

Heard about this on the radio The other day.
They took a strip mall to court because they only allowed sandwich shops to be there.
Tacos are mexican sandwiches...supposedly

Actually, tortas are Mexican sandwiches...

Mexican Torta Sandwiches (Tortas Mexicanas)

A Mexican torta is a sandwhich made with freshly baked, soft bread roll, a meat and a number of toppings including avocado, refried beans, mayonnaise, cheese, onions, tomatoes, pickled jalapenos, shredded lettuce and more. A torta is gloriously messy, ridiculously large and very exciting to eat...

Never could understand why it's called a hamburger. I just call them burgers. Although I do like some ham on top of a good burger so I guess I can call those hamburgers.

Hamburger is just a category of sandwich. Sandwich is the Family, hamburger is the genus, cheeseburger is the specie. A sandwich is a main course between two pieces of bread or a split roll.

This seems pretty accurate to me. You start down the crazy path on what is a sandwich and you end up with a pop tart in your lunch box.

i blame the pineapple on pizza people.

Wonder how much taxpayer's money went into this stupid sh|T

Is it just me, or is this a zoning and covenants thing more than a judicial ruling that made tacos sandwiches? Judge Bobay makes a reasoned and well thought out decision based on type of restaurant and the world goes bat-crap over tacos=sandwiches.

Allen County: known for two Judges.

I was told that ground meat sandwiches were first made popular in Hamburg, Germany, thus Hamburg'er. I never bothered to do any research.

My thought exactly. Who cares if a taco is a sandwich or what possible legal precedent gets set here (spoiler alert: none).

The key takeaway is that the ruling stuck it to some up-jumped municipal bureaucrat(s) in favor of a small business owner.

Nothing beats a Nathans hot dog straight off the grill!

If a sub is a sandwich so is a hotdog and so is a taco. All the same thing, one bit of bread wrapped around the contents.
