A Massachusetts judge has settled it: A burrito is not a sandwich.
Panera Bread had claimed that the White City Shopping Center violated an
agreement to keep out other sandwich shops when it rented space to Qdoba
Mexican Grill. Panera sued, saying that Qdoba's burritos were
sandwiches. Qdoba countered with testimony from a former USDA bigwig and
a chef, who said calling a burrito a sandwich "would be absurd to any
credible chef or culinary historian." The judge said the dictionary was
clear: A sandwich has two slices of bread, a burrito has a single
tortilla. Case closed. (The Boston Globe
