[Lil Oldman]

Are sandwiches a kind of cake?

[KTeknis]

Probably not.
Also clickbait cool.

[Lil Oldman]

It is not clickbait. Im about to lose an argument with internet funny man and need someone that gives me their pov

Well let’s see is a hotdog a sandwich?

If I had to guess, there's no way to consider sandwiches as a kind of cake, although the inverse is quite possible.

Cakes are usually baked and often requires yeast for the whole non-frosting or topping parts, while only the bread of the sandwich goes through such process (if any). When they are not prepared as such, they are actually made in a fashion similar to sandwiches, like tiramisu is.

Also, you can add condiments and change the contents of a sandwich before and even during the meal, while the latter is nearly impossible for a cake and most cakes don't go along with ketchup, mustard and stuff like that.

Well let’s see is a hotdog a sandwich?

Yes. A hotdog is just a sandwich with only 1 slice of bread.

Also, you can add condiments and change the contents of a sandwich before and even during the meal, while the latter is nearly impossible for a cake and most cakes don't go along with ketchup, mustard and stuff like that.

Anyone can add condiments on a cake before or during a meal, just think of strawberry Jam.
So I could consider sanwiches as a kind of Salty cake?

Anyway, I lost to internet funny man so I think it doesnt matter.

[DuskWill]

Well then, if you're considering strawberry jam, you're redefining condiments as well.

And, yes, in the end it doesn't really matter, aside from the fact that this topic made me craving some cake. And since you mentioned salty cakes, I'm remembering the last one I had with codfish, cream cheese and olives.
