    I want to be clear: Both the logical structure (let's decide which things are sandwiches using these rules) and its negation (no, it's a sandwich only because people say it's a sandwich) are great, and both are good lessons. I upvoted both :D We would all do well to be able to apply this same thinking, and not just to classifying a burrito.

Interesting. The cheesecake here is nothing like ones found in the UK, which would be classified as toast!

According to that, a Big Mac is a cake, because it has a layer of bread in between. A sandwich to me is a meal you can 1) hold with your hands, 2) enjoy while gambling. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Montagu,_4th_Earl_of_Sandwich#The_sandwich https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Montagu,_4th_Earl_of_Sand...
