Identify your food based on the location of structural starch. Is a hot dog a sandwich? No, it's clearly a taco.

    Ah, steak, my favorite salad! Oooh, and salad, the perfect nachos!! My steak is a salad, but if I cut it into bite-sized pieces, it becomes nachos!!!

    1. A salad is specifically a mix of more than one thing. Not a homogeneous mixture.
    2. The hell’s up with the nachos? A food with many repeating identical objects? Nachos are a salad.
    3. A sandwich is supposed to be 3 layers; [bread–>content–>bread] from top to bottom. They cite a stack of 3 slices of toast as a sandwich, but a cake is defined as a food with >2 grain layers, a criterion in which 3 slices of toast fits.

    Seriously, a good theory idea, but with unforgivable flaws.
