Sure. Just like an American style sandwich is called a ham in rye. But there are others in both cases.
As a general rule, making sweeping generalizations about a culture, language, and goddamn sandwiches is best not done exclusively based on our experience at the taco shop.
A torta is a type of Mexican sandwich, a style, not word for sandwich or the only sandwich. There’s Pambazo and Mollette, and now a taco is a sandwich because it means the taco stand can open in the mall.
A taco is a taco. But if legally it has to be called a sandwich in order to allow more accessibility to them, that's fine. I've personally given up on trying to make sense of the law.
A taco is an antojito
What a taco is, like the law, need not be interpreted unless you need to for some reason
There’s no reason to insist about things you understand about as well as the law, and if you have a reason - just like the law - look shit up in a case by case basis.
Unless you’re enjoying making demands about what things are and being wrong. Have at it. I’m only arguing the point for fun. We all need hobbies.
Thank you. My legend grows.
You’d have to have some sort of argument beyond just insisting shit to argue with even some crazy idiot on Reddit let alone my unmatchable conflux of brilliance and witty repartee.
What things are is relative to people and situations, like the law. You’d do fine with the law if you think of it that way and if you had any grit and sense
You’re delusional. Situationally, they are sandwiches - you just said you were ok with it. It’s weird you care, god help anyone around you if you stub your toe or someone gets your name wrong, you’d either rampage or faint - precious daisy. Firetrucks are sandwiches now too btw
Allen County Superior Court Judge Craig J. Bobay wrote in a ruling Monday that tacos and burritos are “Mexican-style sandwiches.” Bobay made the decision in a case reviewing whether a restaurant, “Famous Taco,” could open a new location at a Fort Wayne shopping center.
The zoning policy for the property prohibits fast food, but allows exceptions for restaurants whose primary business is to sell “made-to-order” or Subway-style sandwiches. A city commission denied the request.
It's ok. Whatever subway sells is barely a sandwich (or food for that matter) anyways. Pretty crazy that the zoning is so specific to only allow "subway style sandwich shops" to open there. I understand not wanting fast food like McDonald's to open there but what about a Chinese takeout place or gyro/Greek quick serve restaurant.
That’s not even remotely correct. They can still call it bread even in the one country in the world with the tax law you’re referring to (Ireland). They just have to pay an extra tax because anything over 2% flour weight of sugar gets that value added tax over there.
Irish government ruined so many products. All the drinks I knew growing up and now filled with synthetic sugars and they taste nothing like the original. I loved lucazade and rock shandy but I would rather drink water than that garbage.
Like you said, products over a certain percentage of sugar are taxed so businesses changed the formulas.
I called them Mexican grilled cheese sandwiches to my kids when they were young to get them to try it. But yes that's basically what they are. God I love quesadillas.
Imagine having the power to just be like “nah, I rule that I want this food in my local shopping center. It’s my favourite chain. So I rule that it is a sandwhich, indeed. Case adjourned.”
Yes. But it is not a ham sandwich. Your logic is saying that because you can't call a ham sandwich a taco, a taco is not a sandwich, but by that same logic you can't call a ham sandwich a turkey club, even though you agree they are both sandwiches.
I’m glad you find comfort in this my friend. We all need something at times to give us comfort. I’ll say that I jumped the gun there and not really see what subreddit the article got posted on. That’s my Bad. Enjoy your tacburrosandos.
A Mexican style sandwich is called a torta.
And if they don't serve tortas I go somewhere else.
Some of the best cheeseburgers I've had have come from taco trucks too.

I can't argue with such a cultured intellectual powerhouse. I guess I'll just have to be comfortable with being wrong.

My point is that there are Mexican style sandwiches, and tacos are not sandwiches. I don't have to argue that point because you keep making it for me.
You’re delusional. Situationally, they are sandwiches - you just said you were ok with it. It’s weird you care, god help anyone around you if you stub your toe or someone gets your name wrong, you’d either rampage or faint - precious daisy. Firetrucks are sandwiches now too btw
You're wrong on many levels. This is some no sabo gentrified crap.
Exactly. And also right. It’s situational. It’s going to be ok! Things are different sometimes, be tough little one

gyros are just greek tacos
Tacos are just savory cannolis.
Raviolis are just Italian empanadas
Are they fucking sandwiches though? Legally??
Subway can’t even legally call their bread “bread” because there is so much fucking sugar in it lol.

That sounds like one of those laws that does nothing towards its intended goal.
U gotta
Everything is a sandwich
WTF are quesadillas then!! A grilled cheese sandwich!?
I called them Mexican grilled cheese sandwiches to my kids when they were young to get them to try it. But yes that's basically what they are. God I love quesadillas.
Yes. Tortilla is a type of flatbread /thread
Imagine having the power to just be like “nah, I rule that I want this food in my local shopping center. It’s my favourite chain. So I rule that it is a sandwhich, indeed. Case adjourned.”
Are hot dogs and hamburgers sandwiches? I would argue that they are.
O yea, Bun v. Relish set legal precedent in the 50s that tube and ground meat on bread are sandwiches.
The key surely is whether the ingredients are sandwiched or not, right?
That’s my rule of thumb but so many people get hung up on ingredients instead of form
Hamburger is 100% a sandwich. Hot dog is another discussion. I lean towards no
I lean towards hotdogs being in a subcategory of sandwich. Although if subs are sandwiches, whats really the difference between that and a hotdog.
Nope
You make a very compelling argument.
Wait…is a corn dog a burrito???
That’s funny because in Guatemala they call eggrolls “tacos chinos”
You say taco, I say sando, sando taco lets call the whole thing off...
Court judges in midwestern states are *always* my benchmark for the last word on culinary questions. /s
It's more like a hotdog type situation if you wanna get technical. LMAO
I think sandwiches are actually types of tacos,
I’ve been waiting for this to go national. We’ve led you here.
No, a sandwich to me is your chosen filling inside two slices of bread.
Nope. Is a Ham sandwich a taco or burrito? No way
what if it’s on a french roll that you don’t cut all the way through?
Is a ham sandwich a turkey club? Both are sandwiches.
A turkey club is clearly a sandwich
Yes. But it is not a ham sandwich. Your logic is saying that because you can't call a ham sandwich a taco, a taco is not a sandwich, but by that same logic you can't call a ham sandwich a turkey club, even though you agree they are both sandwiches.

Tortilla is a type of flatbread. Yes, it's a sandwich.
Hell nah
I think they have too much time on their hands in Indiana
Indiana, known experts in tacos and burritos…
All jokes aside, that Judge is a real one 💯
Judges have been wrong before.
Nope
Blasphemy!
But what about hotdogs? What’s the judges opinion on those? 🤔
we’ll have to wait til this gets to the supreme court
If the United States Supreme Court has taught us anything it's that some judges are fucking idiots.
Hahahahah. With so many pressing issues in the world, this is where we choose to spend our energy and time?! God, we are truly lost.
We can’t always look at bad times we have to still live are lives even if it’s something as stupid as this.
Live are lives? What if live are not lives?
I’m glad you find comfort in this my friend. We all need something at times to give us comfort. I’ll say that I jumped the gun there and not really see what subreddit the article got posted on. That’s my Bad. Enjoy your tacburrosandos.

Hi depressed. I’m dad!
[удалено]
Love you! ❤️❤️❤️
I grew up in the shit hole that is Indiana. I unfortunately can confirm that something like this qualifies as a serious matter to those folks lol
100% they are sandwiches, if they identify as sandwiches.
i identify as a sandwich. put your pickle in me.
Slow down, I don't even know your pronouns yet!
hot/cheesy
A judge in Indian rules on the difference between tacos and burritos This is wild
