      Haha yeah, I have survived on these things during uh… income droughts.

      Sure, it doesnt taste amazing, but its a stupid amount of sandwich for the price.

    I feel I might be misunderstanding the scale of what I’m looking at, that looks like a perfectly reasonable example of a proper sandwich, easily held, able to be bitten in cross section without unhinging the jaw, unless you want to eat it vertically like a more orally painful version of the tumblr burrito rant.

      The bread is quite soft and compresses a good deal, which also helps.

    And like all those prepackaged sandwiches, all the filling is purposely piled in the front to look like it’s filled, while the back is just poorly cue sub bread and nothing else.

    Let’s see a real cross-section of that sandwich, where we can actually see inside. I’d bet $10 that is looks more like this: i.imgur.com/rgGljaK.jpeg

    If you film a sandwich, umyou end up with soft squishy bread. Not that this one seemed that great to begin with.

      If you go to the website there’s a detailed explanation.

      But yes, a hotdog is a taco when its cut down the middle side or top, its a burrito when the hotdog is encased in the bread.

        By this diagram, the Hawaiian Puka Dog is sushi.

    THE BREAD SHOULD BE A SIGNIFICANT COMPONENT OF THE MEAL! NOT A GLORIFIED BOOKEND FOR YOU TO PUT AN ENTIRE GODDAMNED MEATLOAF BETWEEN!

      It’s because Americans have shit bread, they don’t know how to estimate its contribution to a meal

  I wish you were right. But overpriced restaurants that serve burgers with a vertical height challenging to most intermediate pole vaulters would suggest otherwise.

    I actually think Burgers are often the worst offenders here

    The point of it being a sandwich is that you can hold the whole thing or at least whole segment you’re monching in your hand, those super stack burgers are so big they need to be held up so that they don’t collapse under their own weight

    That’s not a sandwich, that’s a pile of meat cheese and assortment with a side of two slices of your choice of bread or roll.

      I share your distain for the format. And yet…

      that’s a pile of meat cheese and assortment

      …it calls me.

        It can be delicious without having to be a sandwich, let it be it’s own beautiful mess of uncontained food that struggles to remain stacked even when laid back into a container

  but I do like to think if someone drops a slice of bread in the US at the same time of someone in Australia humanity makes an Earth Sandwich
