I'm not sure if this is going to forestall or foment heated discussion about what is or isn't a sandwich, but it's certainly an attempt to codify what constitutes sandwichness: https://cuberule.com/

There’s no such thing as a sandwich (phylogenetically)

Please keep political flamethrowing off HN. (Although I agree)

A sandwich is not an ontological category and should be eradicated.

hot dogs and burritos are sandwiches right?

A burrito is a calzone in the cube rule system, but I'd rather rename that class to burrito.

I’m a big fan of the cube rule except for its salad category. The idea that a frittata and a bowl of tomato soup are equivalent is hard to swallow (pun intended).

I agree. People always talk about technicalities, ingredients, structure, etc. in this argument. For me, the main reason why a hotdog isn't a sandwich is that you can't use the two interchangeably. I would never go up to a hotdog stand and ask for a sandwich.

Right. That's why hotdogs are not even food, or organic matter. I would never go up to a hotdog stand and ask for organic matter.
