The other day, Harvey had a link to something that looked at what’s inside a hot dog.

Do you really want to know? Go see.

You know what else about hot dogs you may want to know? Why do the hot dogs and the buns come in different numbers in their respective packages?

  1. I can’t believe they actually call hot dogs and hot dog buns… hot dogs and hot dog buns in the U/K. Amazing. I hope they don’t put ketchup…or is it catsup, on them. Wait…do they call ketchup or catsup something else besides ketchup or catsup? Anyone who does deserves to be thrown to the pit of misery! Mustard, sweet relish and onion is the only stuff that can go on one. This is not debatable.

  2. Dallas Hot sauce, in Kingston, NY, and mustard is the only thing I’ll put on a hot dog.

    As a former employee of the US Patent and Trademark Office, I’ll say it’s ‘catsup’ unless it’s made by Heinz, then it’s Ketchup. Don’t dilute their trademark!
    That’s why Velcro and Band-Aid are never to be used for generic copies.

  3. Jean Shepherd, whose memories of growing up in Hammond, Indiana, provided entertaining reading for many of us and also resulted in the movie A Christmas Story, was born in Chicago, July 26, 1921. Don’t shoot your eye out.
