   Sandwich literally means to insert something between two things, even if those two things are opposing surfaces of one thing. I didn't invent the language. Tacos, hot dogs, burgers, it's all a sandwich. Except, ironically, an open-faced "sandwich", which is not, unless folded.

      I don't consider tacos as sandwiches, although they're delicious! To me, a sandwich consists of two pieces of bread with stuff in between. Wraps aren't sandwiches, either, but are often a healthier alternative to a typical sandwich.

            It's a Mexican dish very popular in the U.S.

                  You're welcome. They're yummy, but more of a meal than a snack. That is, if you eat two or three!

                     Just had three shrimp tacos yesterday for lunch and they definitely were a meal; at least at the bar where I got them, bigger than the usual taco truck tacos.

   By that definition, tacos and hot dogs aren’t sandwiches because the hot dog bun and tortilla they’re incased in is just one thing, not two things.

      I agree. However, a torta is a sandwich.

   Now I took two slice of bread. Smear a side with peanut butter and closed that buttered side. Is that a sandwich?                               But fruits, veggies, egg, meat, in between any sliced bakery items are traditionally sandwichs. A sandwich is not a true meal that delivers all the nutrients the body needs. Its just a snack. Combing various fruits and a little green is much better.

   Never seen a tacos sandwich in my life. Don't even know what a tacos is, but I'm guessing it's delicious...

      They’re very delicious. If you ever get the chance to try one, you should!

   Handicapped Chef, that image makes me want a sandwich. To me, a sandwich is anything (sliced, spread, chopped or shredded) held together between 2 slices or one folded slice of baked or fried dough (bread, croissant, bagel, bun, roll, biscuit). Tortillas and pita pockets are debatable but I'll give them a pass under the widened umbrella of sandwiches . . . I guess.
