    Okay but, what about down the centre as well? I think this is where the paved road ends

      It is still a Type II sandwich, just that the middle portion is air.

      In crappy text form it’s equivalent to:

      Bread

      PB&J | Air | PB&J

      Bread

        Okay so I think I’m failing miserably at articulating quite the monstrosity I’ve imagined. For illustrative purposes:

          Ah I see. This looks a bit different than OP’s image. This requires further research in food cube science.

          I do believe this configuration that you listed could be a new sub-Type of food topology. It combines four starches with filling in between, as two Type II sandwiches orthogonally configured.

          Since you can theoretically make modifications like this to the other Types, it might be easier to make these new configurations subtypes of the main categories instead of making a Type VII (we should reserve these for 4D foods).

          This particular case is a biaxial Type IIa sandwich.

            Oh thank fuck.

            My existential anxiety is fading, thank you for your pioneering work in this field.

          In this case the starch does not fully cover any of the sides of the cube, thus this is a salad.
