Do they count as sandwiches if they're served in a cake?

Homemade bread when done right is literally heaven, that smell when it comes out of the oven is amazing.

Is Subway uncommon in other places? I can think of 6 of them within 4 miles of my home.

It’s common for American food, particularly bread, to have way more sugar than necessary. I’ve always wondered why.

If its mass produced, its simply to try to sell more. Sugar and salt is added because that tends to make the food product taste better than it'd otherwise be. The business of America up to this day is business. It takes way more lawsuits/harmful effects for something in the US to get banned than would perhaps be the case for many other countries.

So for the sake of simplicity and lower costs for the industry and government, you want to tax all food?
If you're that greedy for revenue, tax recreational drugs instead.
