    by this definition, two uncoeked ramen noodle blocks stacked on eachother is a sandwich.

              The info probably got lost in translation. Container and conatained implies on around the other. In french this sounds obvious, maybe not in english

                i was assuming it was lost the other way around; surely you are not arguing that open-face sandwiches like smørrebrød are not sandwiches?

                  I didn’t knew about smorrebrod until today, and it doesn’t really go in my definition of sandwich, but if you tell me that it is culturally accepted as a sandwich, it would indeed bring more useless and delicious debates to my life

      Absolutely from article 1 as disturbing as it look.

      I would also argue that 2 ramen blocks are not easy to eat in the street or anywhere as it would make fragment everywhere, making it hard to pass article 2

      Also the cultural factor (no society eats 2 ramen noodle block like that) can eliminate it from the sandwich classification, but it remains in the sandwich logic.
