Imho, a sandwich should be defined as anything between two slices of bread
(square or round) with "all sides potential of contents ooze." Anything
bread with a "backbone" is not.

Sandwich: Bagel, BLT, hamburger, panini
Not-a-Sandwich: Hotdog, cheesesteak, meatball sub, gyro, taco, wrap

I disagree about the constraint that a sandwich shouldn't be messy.
