Is it a necessity that a non-breaded sandwich have ice cream?


I could see meat, cheese or fish enclosed between lettuce leaves as a sandwich as well.

If I were to take two flat rocks and wedge some dirt between them, could I call it a sandwich? No. Structure is not everything. Ingredients must be part of the definition. Therefore, an ice cream "sandwich" is not relevant to this discussion.

Nor, really, are Oreos or other sandwich cookies/biscuits.

Sure, why not.

Really, it needs to be protein contained between two pieces of something, for the purpose of nutrition.

I know kids wearing black seem weird but they're nice I swear, and if we just fund more arts programs in schools kids won't use the sides of buildings anymore.

So a veggie burger doesn't count? But does a hamburger?

Sure, but liked miniscule amounts. Y'know, when ch is as to why humans can't survive solely off of lettuce.

It has about half as much protein as a normal burger, which is fine considering most Americans eat too much protein anyway.

I think we're talking about to different types of burger.

Well I guess I'm weird then. What I'm thinking of is just vegetables such as lettuce, onions, and tomatoes between two buns.

That's more of a veggie sandwich than a veggie burger, no?
