Well, the seller is labeling it as a "kebab", and Wikipedia lists it as a form of kebab.

See this unimpeachable source:

"English speakers from countries outside North America may also use the word kebab generally to mean the popular fast food version of the Turkish döner kebab,^[69] or the related shawarma or gyros, and the sandwiches made with them, available from kebab shops as take-away meals."

In fact, that image is accompanied on the website by the caption "Doner kebab sandwich in Berlin".

That can also be named a "Döner" if i am not mistaken, a sort of pitta bread with kebab style meat of unknown heritage, origin and transport route, served handed over with salad and sometimes a yoghurt sauce.

Is a burrito/taco/shawarma/doner/... with Moebius-shaped tortilla/lavash/blin/... 1-side or 2-side?

Is it a sandwich?

If you accidentally hold it upside town, e.g. to answer a phone call, you are likely to stand there with an empty bread ...

What if you're eating the taco on an airplane on a treadmill?

I see. So the kebabs can traverse the continuum then ?

Wait a minute...are you eating a taco while using a treadmill that is on a plane, or are you eating a taco inside the airplane which is itself on the treadmill?

Neither.

You're on the treadmill, and the taco is attached to the wingtip of the plane, which is doing a low pass over the treadmill.  Ignoring friction and assuming the cow is a sphere,  with a train leaving Chicago at 3:00 PM, at what time will it impact and derail this thread?

A very good idea.

Can they treat this as a sandwich, too?

No, because the grain has not been processed enough to be called a "bread".

Ok, but what about pelmeni?

That's ravioli, therefore a pasta.

[Gargamel]

By some definitions here, a pierogi would be a sandwich...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierogi

And to me, a pierogi is clearly not a sandwich, but is actually closer to a taco than a taco is a sandwich, therefore a taco is not a sandwich.

Anything that has carbohydrate-based wrapper enclosing a filling is a sandwich for me (that includes taco and kebab)
