Which is not considered a sandwich?

Hamburger
BLT
Pizza
Sub

The correct answer is: Pizza

Pizza is not considered a sandwich because it does not fit the traditional definition of a sandwich, which typically consists of two slices of bread or similar materials encasing a filling. A pizza is made with a singular crust that serves as the base, topped with sauce, cheese, and various toppings. Unlike a sandwich, which is designed to be handheld with the filling visible on the inside, pizza is generally consumed in slices and does not have an enclosed structure. In contrast, options like a hamburger, a BLT (bacon, lettuce, tomato), and a sub are all examples of sandwiches because they consist of fillings placed between bread, meeting the criteria typical of this category of food.
