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

    Not without a filling!

    Spread some peanut butter between them though, and now we're talking!

    one of them is the base, the other is filling.

    It would be a toast then, you must make the container be around the containee

    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.
