Pita is open at the top and a single side. That’s a new category.

Fusion food. Absolutely the worst.
I’m sure that good fusion food is possible. But the vast majority is white people doing overpriced ethnic food badly. at least in Aus.

All I know for sure is that if a hot dog has ketchup on it, it’s not a real hot dog. I don’t make the rules

I also think ketchup on hot dogs is gross, but I’m pretty sure a solid percentage of weiner eaters would disagree with us.

It’s illegal in Chicago and some places will refuse if you request it

Ah…Chicago dogs. I like veggies, but I’d rather have a dog with just the condiments and a side salad.

A pita is a taco, it is not the ingredients that control the classification of the food, it is the wrapping. A pita held in a ‘V’ shape filled with toppings is a taco, a pita with the filling stuffed inside of it is a calzone.

A pita “open at the top” is a 3 sided food; a taco. If the top flap of the pita is in place it becomes a calzone.

I’m sorry, but fuck regional tastes in foods. Growing up on the West Coast we put ketchup and mustard on our hotdogs and didn’t give a shit what the Great Lakes were. Big Shoulders my ass, more like fragile little taste buds amirite?

To make it more broad, top center category should be “pizza” and bottom center should be “empanada.”
Also cheesesteaks and hoagies are not tacos.
I imagine tacos are the most popular member of the taco family, so it gets to be the name of the category. But if you put your hoagie or cheesesteak in a bun, you are having a delicious form of Taco. I don’t make the rules.

Shameless corporate marketeers don’t even throw the term around that loosely.

Going to take a moment to vent -
I only know a calzone as ham, ricotta, mozzarella inside sealed pizza dough.
Whatever they call a calzone in my town definitely isn’t a calzone.
A calzone with a bunch of other shit in it, especially sauce, is just a stuffed pizza.
I’ve always known calzone as just a think crust pizza you fold in half.
This thread has seen a precipitous decline in the meme : bullshit ratio lately. Get back to work, you lot.

The sauce was always on the side at the one Calzone joint I used to go to.
