Then subs are tacos and not sandwiches? I would disagree.
The definition I like for sandwich is “A set of materials in the configuration ABA, mated along their longest side”. It holds up in contexts outside of food, that the word “sandwich” is sometimes used in, and is valid in dimensionalities other than 3.
The sub issue remains though. Semantically, it could be argued that subs are sandwiches that have not had their end fully cut.
