Is a 'Hot Dog' a sandwich?

Lamb · Jul 28, 2017

I know Chicagoans aren't supposed to put ketchup on their hot dogs but I can't help it. I really like the taste of ketchup!

I've never tried a "Chicago Style" dog. Looks like it'd be good. Ketchup would go well with that, looks like. Do they use the 'Kosher' style Hot Dogs? Always the best!

Sorry the image is huge but here is my favorite Chicago hot dog...it's a Char Dog from Gold Coast

... a little spicy mustard on the "dog" (or better, a brat). MAYBE some onions.

Don't mess up a good thing.

Hehe The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council ruled two years ago that the hot dog is not a sandwich and that's that.

The title and especially the word "controversy" in it gave me a good chuckle. I think it proves that humans will always find something to argue about, lol.

Sorry, my poll question messed up. The 'Yes' next to the question is a typo, and does not reflect my opinion one way or the other. I see no way to edit the poll.

A sandwich is 2 slices of bread with something in the middle, whatever you choose to put in it, a hot dog is in a roll then covered in whatever people put in it or on it..

And besides, rumor has it that within the city limits of Chicago, you could be arrested for such an offense

Oh, yes! When I worked in Chicago and would go for a hot dog at lunch my friend cringed when I asked for ketchup. He would actually grab ketchup packets for me to put on later and warn me not to order any on my char dog LOL

I always add tomato sauce to my mustard and onions as condiments for sausages in a bun.

That sounds good! I don't use buns for sausages or brats!

Well, is it?

No it's a hotdog. A sandwich is real bread with something like cheese or vegetables. A hamburger isn't a sandwich either.

Well, a hamburger IS a sandwich but a hot dog is not. Obviously.

Oh dear NO a hot dog (sausage and onions etc) is in a roll or bun, a sandwich is 2 slices of bread with a filling inside like ham. cheese, egg etc, how can anyone not tell the difference..

I tried to use the poll but it doesn't work for me sorry
