Let’s get this out of the way. A hot dog is not a sandwich. A hot dog is it’s own separate entity that requires just two things – a bun and a hot dog. A sandwich does not use hot dogs and only the saddest of saddest sandwiches use buns as their bread.
However, because some people love to be argumentative for its own sake, every now and then people will try to say that a hot dog is a sandwich because both contain similar ingredients – meat and some sort of bread-based substance as the meat’s delivery system to the mouth. Now, that’s silly because under that definition, a corn dog is a sandwich and a corn dog is unequivocally NOT a sandwich.
On Wednesday, the Buffalo Bills found themselves embroiled in the age-old (but should-be-settled-damn-it) debate on the merits of a hot dog as a sandwich.
As it turns out, the Bills’ debate over the subject is likely the very one that you had with your friends when this topic inevitably came up during a weekend picnic or whatever.
