    Burgers, Hotdogs, Calzones, Tacos, Burritos and the like aren’t sandwiches.

          If one is the other, than what’s on which side of the equation doesn’t really matter. They’re still the same thing.
          So sure a calzone is also a burrito. No difference really.

        Hotdogs are tacos.

        hard disagree. hotdogs are made with leavened bread, tortillas are a flatbread.

        hotdogs are an open-faced sandwich.

            It works. my grandpa’s quirky sandwich! Make a kosher hot dog, slice lengthwise, put on a slice of bread, pile high garlic salt and hot sauce, then the second slice. I do think it started off with him trying to make something no one would eat, but my brothers and I jumped on it, especially when it horrified the Moms. He always acted like a little kid with how happy it made him: us kids (even if he was 70+) vs the moms!

              Oh I’ve done something similar! Get some curry ketchup on there and you’ve got a currywurst sandwich.

              That’s a sandwich though, the above comment said open face, so it’s just a whole hotdog teetering on a cut open half of a hot dog bun.

          Look up Oki Dog. Definitely a burrito. Then ponder how badly you want one and how direly you’ll regret it should you ever eat one.

          The most famous Oki creation was–is–the eponymous Oki Dog, a couple of hot dogs wrapped in a tortilla with chili, pickles, mustard, a slice of fried pastrami and a torrent of goopy American cheese–a cross-cultural burrito that’s pretty hard to stomach unless you’ve got the tum of a 16-year-old, but strangely delicious nonetheless. - Jonathan Gold

          My local grocery carries hot dog shaped pita bread - that’s the only way we eat hot dogs now, fill em up with onions, chili, relish and mustard!

          A hot dog is a gyro

        the creator of the GIF format says it’s pronounced like “Jiff” like the peanut butter, but he’s still wrong
