    Pretty sure flatbread predated leavened bread, so it’s reasonable to conclude tacos predated both hot dogs and sandwiches.

    Conclusion: Hot dogs are tacos, sandwiches are broken tacos.

        Pizza is just an open face sandwich, but arguments can be made that New York style is a taco because most people fold it to consume it.

        Have to ask yourself what a calzone is then.

          A calzone is a wrap/burrito. Unless uncrustables are in play and are recognized as their own distinct category. In which case a calzone is an uncrustable or vice versa

            Next thing you’re going to tell me is a pasty is a burrito.

              Pastries are an umbrella category of baked goods that are usually but not always sweet. The composition of the dough and preparation techniques are different and distinct from the sandwich debate. Though I guess you could make the case for empanadas. Or that calzones are large Italian empanadas and uncrustables are also a type of empanada. Hmmm 🤔

          A loaf of bread.

          Bread often has stuff baked into it, so what’s the difference between a loaf of bread with cheese or nuts baked into it vs. a loaf with chicken, cheese, and marina sauce baked into it.

        Sort of. As the other commenter pointed out, they are open face.

        Sandwiches are broken tacos, but pizzas are not broken.

        Pizzas are open face tacos.
