You could at least post the original source instead of this poor mockup. The original is excellent and explains in much more detail.

The "popular examples" had me rolling.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

This is hilarious

Had no idea there was a source

"MY WIFE LEFT ME BECAUSE I THINK A BURRITO IS A TYPE OF SANDWICH"

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (3 children)

so…proof that a hot dog isn’t a sandwich but now….it’s a TACO??!?!?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

The world isn't ready for this

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

This is what I have always maintained and I’m pleased that it’s getting recognition

[–] withdrawn 2 points 1 year ago

I'm glad somebody finally said it.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Could be cake, could be lasagna.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is lasagna just pasta cake? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Damn...it is!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If I add a third bun to a hamburger, its a cake now

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

So big mac are cakes, confirmed.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And a hotdog is a taco.

...actually that one kind of makes sense.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes, yes, yes… until I get to the calzone. Burrito may be more apt.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, calzones being a subset of burritos makes more sense to me than burritos being a subset of calzones.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Guess that depends where you're from, for me calzones are more common than burritos but I can see how you'd think this way if burritos are more common in your area.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I think that they are all dumplings, with calzones as king of the dumplings. Burritos aren’t fully sealed, so I suppose that makes them more of a tightly wrapped toast.

So a Big Mac is technically a cake

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Snickers (and many other candy bars) are calzones.

This diagram has opened my eyes to a whole new way of seeing the world.

Is three vertical slices a kebab?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Almond croissant is now my favorite sushi.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My takeaway from this is that pizza is just fancy toast.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Pancakes? They were just toast all along...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Quiche and sushi just differ in orientation? So does turning one on it's side become the other? What happens in space if two people are in different orientations, is it both simultaneously?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Quiche is only open on top, sushi is open at both ends.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I think a quiche has a bottom like a cup. And sushi is open on both ends like a toilet paper roll.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I feel like this meme was created by the same topologists who claim that a coffee mug is a donut

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Correction, coffee mug is a Quiche according to the docs ... if you are alright with eating overcooked dirt at least.

Edit: Hell I didn't realize this post was 2 days old. Oh well, leaving it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They are not wrong

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As someone who doesn’t eat quiche (don’t like eggs), how is that category not “tart”? I’ve argued that a pizza, rather than being a pie, is a tart, but under this system, is it actually a quiche?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

NY style is more of a pizza tart (or a pizza toast?) while Chicago style is a proper pizza pie/pizza quiche.

[–] withdrawn 2 points 1 year ago

Cannoli= sushi

[–] sensibilidades 1 points 1 year ago

This has been elaborated since, and the eigenvectors of the sandwich space covered by the cube rule have been rigorously worked out.
