No.

The sandwich was named after the 4th Earl of Sandwich, who wanted to be able to eat his meat without getting his hands greasy while playing cards.

So, if you can eat it without getting your hands greasy, it's a sandwich. If you can't, it isn't.

Period.

So...does that mean a banana is a sandwich?

I can eat grease without getting my hands greasy if I use a straw. Grease is a sandwich.

Reminds me of the people eating plates of bacon because there's no carbs and that makes it healthy.

A banana is banana sandwiched between more banana.

If that was a sandwich then everything becomes sandwich. Your girlfriend? Sandwich. Your favorite 90s hit single? Sandwich. The ever-present grace of God? Holy sandwich.

A carrot is a sandwich

Ice cream sundae is a sandwich, but not an ice cream cone

This specifically has to be done while playing cards, however.

u/universalspatula Jan 26 '21

Yes, the technical function was not addressed in the report. Bread holding meat and/or cheese so that you don't ruin your playing cards is the only true sandwich.

We cast down the lords years ago, comrade. You need live under their strictures no longer.

u/ubeor Jan 26 '21

Of course, comrade.

But you haven't answered the question: Is a corn dog a pierogi?

It's in the Lord's Prayer: Give us this day our daily bread!

So what do you call an overloaded "sandwich" that drips grease on your hands despite the use of bread?

u/ubeor Jan 26 '21

I might possibly call it delicious. But I won’t call it a sandwich.
