But then that would make a covered pie a calzone! And a hot dog a taco! And soup a salad! And an omelette a salad! And ice cream a sala- wait... I think this system is growing on me...
#7 is for things where there's basically no distinction between the top and bottom. Even pies with a crust on top has a distinct "top" side, whereas the sides and bottoms are all pie crust.
#7 is for calzones, corn dogs, burritos, dumplings, pot stickers, ravioli, etc.
A slice of apple pie is a taco. A slice of pumpkin pie is toast. A whole apple pie is a calzone, a whole pumpkin pie is a quiche. See how silly you sound?
I think a pie should have an upper crust, so it's more of a tart. Of course, tons of common food names break this convention so maybe quiche is fine anyways
The "sushi" should be "burrito". That's just one type of sushi, because what I picture when I hear "sushi" would probably be in the "toast" category (if rice counts as the "bread")
The one labelled “calzone” is pie, as it has a base, sides and a lid. A calzone is just a pizza folded over, which by this designation system makes it toast.

Always upset that #6 is “quiche” and not “pie” which is obviously the broader category
Tagger@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 309d
But a pie should have a lid. If anything #7 should be pie rather than calzome.
youCanCallMeDragon@lemmy.world · 20 pts · 309d
The lid is optional (pizza pie, pumpkin pie, quiche) I will die on this hill
grue@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 309d
I feel like there are more kinds of pies without lids than ones with them anyway.

Could y'all please stop dieing on hills all the time?! I love hiking, but all the corpses are really disturbing.

And even with a lid, it isn't quite #7.

None of those are pies. That’s not even heresy, just wrongness.
ChicoSuave@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 309d
A closed top pie form is called a galette.
The open top form is pie.
trolololol@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 309d
You got the galette backwards
makyo@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 309d
Pies with lids are calzones
RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 309d
So most pies are calzones? Because most pies have lids.
Kanda@reddthat.com · 1 pts · 308d
This means that a calzone is a pie or that a pie is a calzone
OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 307d
Calzone is a pie.

(/s, the whole thing is clearly silly)

But quiche is even more fucking delicious.

I mean, it’s basically an egg pie with cheese and/or bacon, how could it not be delicious?
TheGiantKorean@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 309d
Calling a pie a quiche would upset more people. Thus quiche.

Walks in with a burrito
“Behold, a Calzone”
Walks in with a hot dog
“Behold, a taco”
Walks in with an enchilada
“Behold, sushi”

Isn’t McDonald’s bread legally cake due to its sugar content?
grue@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 309d
That court ruling was about Subway's bread, but I don't doubt McDonald's is similar.

The "sushi" should be "burrito". That's just one type of sushi, because what I picture when I hear "sushi" would probably be in the "toast" category (if rice counts as the "bread")

I’m confused by the salad. Shouldn’t it be dozens of layers? I’m unfamiliar with whatever this meme’s progenitor was
ButteryMonkey@piefed.social · 7 pts · 309d
This is what it comes from, and this meme is a poor cut of the rules and logic, probably for space reasons.
A salad with croutons is nachos.

makyo@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 309d
The layers have to be starches, but if you have croutons then chaos
stupidcasey@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 309d
And? Subway's has to classify it's bread as cake because it's too sweet.

Italian salad.

ryedaft@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 309d
No, that's a "torst" whatever the fuck that is. You have a bottom of carb and no sides or top.
MimicJar@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 309d
What if I put the meatballs down first and then top it with spaghetti?

A quiche is a kind of pie. So that item should be the pie category, not the quiche category

Pie is just a sweet quiche with fewer eggs.

This is missing several configurations.
Like two open and adjacent faces like a shawarma, or the inverse of two filled adjacent faces, which is a folded pizza slice
ptu@sopuli.xyz · 2 pts · 309d
Shawarma is a type of sushi and a folded pizza is taco
panda_abyss@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 309d
No, folded NY style pizza has one crease
Shawarma is mostly covered except where the toppings are exposed

The one labelled “calzone” is pie, as it has a base, sides and a lid. A calzone is just a pizza folded over, which by this designation system makes it toast.
RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 8 pts · 309d
Folded over clearly makes it a taco
