    So are you telling me that if I bake a pie, it is type 5 or 6, but as soon as I cut it it becomes type 1 or 3? This doesn’t seem right.

        It clearly does. I point you to number 3, tacos, in the original link. Where it classifies “Slice if pie” as a taco. Clearly being sliced gives it it’s class.

        This is also true of hot dogs, where if you didn’t slice the bun it would be class 1.

          Slicing the hot dog bun is a standard part of it’s preparation and presentation. Not really part of this.

          And if you were presented a “Slice of pie” as A thing. It would in fact be a Taco.
          However If you were presented a whole pie and decided to slice it to eat it. “The Pie” would still be a 5 or 6. “The Slice” would be a 3. “The Pie” didn’t change by having a slice removed.

          Does that distinction make sense? “A Pie” is one thing. “A Slice of Pie” is a different thing.
