but i feel like a grilled cheese "sandwich" is inseparable in the same way that you can't take it apart evenly and it would stick to each breading item just as slicing a doughnut or poptart in half would
wow, that's a fair point. the difference with a grilled cheese sandwich though is that, while the cheese is hard to separate of the bread, the 3 components of the sandwich were distinctly separate until the cheese melted. the components of a poptart/doughnut were never separate and, as you said, slicing a poptart/doughnut in half would just result in 2 pieces of breading with filling attached, thus disqualifying it as a sandwich.
