Indiana judge rules tacos and burritos are, in fact, sandwiches
The ruling stemmed from a legal battle between a developer with plans to open a Mexican restaurant and a local zoning commission.

Im not sure I agree with that. There is no bread involved, and possibly worse for team sandwich, there is only one continuous wrapper. I don’t care what the tax man says that shit ain’t a sandwich. If anything it’s a sort of calzone.
Tortilla is bread
There is no bread involved...
Tortillas are flat bread.
Also, pizza is an open face sandwich. Change my mind.
A pizza is an unfolded calzone or stromboli.
Tortilla is absolutely flat bread.
We label foods based upon the number of carb sides.
Open face sandwiches are not a thing. A sandwich requires two non-contiguous opposed bread layers, otherwise it isn't a sandwich. It's a pie. A bottom carb layer with a top layer of substance. Pizza, pie, "open face sandwiches", and French parfait are all pies.
Now, by having only one contiguous bread, but covering three sides, that would put tacos, hotdogs, Philly cheese steaks, and subs all in their own category (arguably a misshapen pie, but that's a deeper debate).
Agreed.
Thank you Finally someone who understands
Yes the term exists. I'm saying the term is wrong and shouldn't exist.
It's weird in my area. We say toast and jam but call meat and cheese on toast a sandwich. I guess I'm my mind, more than once topping kind of makes it a sandwich, however ... Eggs and cheese on toast but Neuchatel and jam on toast.
Would you consider butter and vegemite on toast to be a sandwich?
It isn't a thing in USA, but I guess if it's filling, a sandwich? You're Aussie? What is the difference between Vegemite and marmite?

So tacos are open face pies?
