| | 🌭🥊 Is a hot dog a sandwich? It’s the ultimate food feud. A sizzling debate. A bun-believable battle of definitions. | Tal Dem Some say yes - a hot dog has meat, a bun, and toppings. Others say no - it’s a tube, not a sandwich. Over the years, food experts, brands, and bun-believers alike have jumped into the “is a hot dog a sandwich?” showdown. NO: In 2015, the National Hot Dog Council declared that hot dogs are no longer sandwiches. They're just hot dogs. YES: In 2016, Merriam-Webster tweeted: "The hot dog is a sandwich." NO: In 2017, hot dog champ Joey Chestnut said it – not a sandwich. YES: In 2021, hot dog company, Oscar Mayer, tweeted: “A hot dog is 1000% a sandwich.” NO: In 2017, The Courier-Journal issued a hilarious correction for calling hot dogs sandwiches 11 times since 1887. They deeply regretted it… especially the ketchup.
FYI: July is peak hot dog season – thanks to the 4th of July, National Hot Dog Day, and the legendary Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest. America runs on buns this month!
