Me and my friend were talking and got into a discussion if subs are considered sandwiches. Technically by defintion, a sandwich has meat or something in between bread. so wouldn't that mean a sub is a type of sandwich? or is the sub the bread? or the way it looks?

A sub is short for a submarine sandwich. It is indeed a sandwich, named because of its submarine appearance.

I would say that the sub is just a type of sandwich. I think the only real difference is the breads.

Yes, subs are considered sandwiches but they are just a little bit of a different shape and size. Also, it is called that because of the shape of the bread that is used. It looks somewhat like a submarine so that is why they call it that. I LOVE SUBS!!! LOL...

Yes it is considered a sandwich. Some places perk up the selling name. Example: super sandwich, Italian sandwich. There are many different names you can use. It is a selling point

According to one of the largest and most popular free online encyclopedias (wikipedia) , IT IS A SANDWICH!!
It is called a Submarine Sandwich, because the shape of the roll it is served on (a submarine roll) is shaped like a submarine (you know - the watercraft)
I might also add, that Quiznos, Blimpies, and Subway are all Sandwich Shops - AND THEY ALL HAVE SUBS ON THE MENU!

It still qualifies as a sandwich, along with the traditional hoagie, hero, or any other regional term for "sandwich" under the sun.
