I don’t really have a question but I want to talk about noodles, please. Is a tamale a noodle or a sandwich?

      I understand the cube rule, I just don’t think I can really subscribe to it. Calling a bowl of lucky charms nachos is inaccurate, it’s clearly a soup.

      Didn’t know I could be more upset about this argument but this rule really takes the cake sandwich. Though for this specific instance, I agree it’s a calzone.

      Does this mean I can get thin crust tamales in New York, and grease death tamales in Chicago

        In L.A., there’s everything from grease death and masa bombs to thin crust and dry. Husk wrapped or banana leaf wrapped. Savory or sweet. We got it all.

      Isn’t the whole point of “toast” that it’s bread that is toasted? How can sushi, an undeniable raw food be “toast”? I’ll accept the cube rule, but toast needs a new classification.,

            It’s not necessarily about the actual toasting. It’s about how ingredients are layered. So, toast and butter is the same as rice and fish. That’s how a Big Mac can be a cake.

            The whole cube rule is just ragebait. And it works well lol
