| Topic | Can it be considered a Sloppy Joe without the bun? |
| Lopen 10/17/19 6:12:54 PM #134: | Like that big mac argument only works if you typically have your big macs with burger, lettuce, tomato, onions, and whatever else on the burger held. Like if it was the secret sauce on a bun, then putting just the sauce in a bowl would be the same as putting a big mac in a bowl. But the sauce is just one part of the puzzle. BLT is a harmony of still ultimately distinctive ingredients, just as the big mac is. Sloppy joe is a mixture of ingredients that you can't separate piecemeal, much like egg salad becomes. Like it's not that the only distinctive part of the sloppy joe is the sloppy joe sauce. It's the only part of the sloppy joe, outside of the bread which is just what the sandwich qualifier requires, is the sauce, and it's distinctively used almost exclusively for sloppy joes and leftovers of sloppy joes (and maybe coneys I guess but I haven't seen this in the wild-- probably more people eat bowls of sloppy joes than sloppy joe coneys overall). Also if the sauce used in sloppy joe sandwiches had its own distinctive name of any sort when not put on a sandwich I'd definitely concede the point --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ... Copied to Clipboard! |
