Hot Dogs -- The Great Debate I Never Knew About

So what would we call this food product I had in Paris? Freedom Dog?

I put mustard on it, but it's in a baguette. And it was French mustard, of course. If I had put ketchup on it, "Feldog" would have been the best term I can think of, accepting that I couldn't think about such evil for too long without going insane. /Colbert

There are many variations, but in general, all Sonoran dogs are wrapped in bacon, placed in a soft Mexican bun and topped with numerous condiments such as beans, mustard, mayonnaise, onions, tomatoes, cheese and jalapenos.

That looks amazing, I want one now

Well this thread helped me make it through 25 long minutes waiting for a movie to start tonight, so first, thank you for that.

Secondly: Kraut and mustard.

My wife and I almost divorced over this issue, but we're in counseling now (she is an anti-ketchup heathen). We still haven't resolved the issue of whether Hebrew Nationals or Nathan's are better, though (even though the answer is clearly Hebrew Nationals).

I like the cut of your jib, Minarchist.

Hear, hear!

After reading this entire thread, I have come to the conclusion that most of you are nuts. Putting anything on a hod dog is quite literally dressing a pig, and the way some of you go about it, I have no option but to question your sanity.

...And every time I make a Hebrew National and put a zig-zag of ketchup on it, I will revel in how much you hate it.

I'm going to have to stop you there. That is not chili, but in fact spaghetti with spicy meat sauce.

Is that a pickle on a fekkin hot dog?

Since no one else has said it yet, I'll say it: Wiener Bomb, baby.

Catsup is the devil's semen.

Anyone who spells it "catsup" automatically loses any and all authority.

By posting on this thread I have sacrificed all authority on a wealth of topics.

Ketchup is still the devil's semen.

Well, I'll only eat a hot dog 2 ways.
Smothered in chilli, or in mac and cheese.
I just don't really like hot dogs that much.

I am a bad michigander. The Coney is also acceptable.

Start at about 2 minutes 50 seconds.

You would be refering to a 3-way (or a 4- or 5-way), not the wonderous Cheese Coney.

Hmmm... I'm recalling a fond memory concerning an encounter I had with a hot dog served on a french bread roll doused with buffalo sauce, shallots and blue cheese.

Sadly, the restaurant closed down and is no longer within my reach...

It's...so...beautiful.

Mayo.

Is he Dutch? I scorned the idea of mayo anywhere but a sandwich until I had some fries in Holland, served with a giant dollop of mayo, and I realised the intense greatness of it.

Belgians do this too, and for the record: we have the best fries in the world. They taste like FREEDOM.

Like a rib, it tastes like liberty, like a rib, in a bun of sesame...

You all make me hungry. Also, you Americanos despise mayo on fried foods only because you haven't tried it. Mayo wins over ketchup and mustard with its eyes closed and arms tied. The fact that you can't accept mayo is the main reason why the dollar is so weak.

The man speaks truth. They have the best fries with the best mayo, in a pointy paper bag. It's a killer combination. Especially when coupled with the best beer in the world, which also happens to be Belgian.

On topic: I agree with CEJ. Ketchup is evil. And not in a good way.

Thank you. I was wondering when someone would post that.

Best... Euphemism... Ever.

I can't believe the things people find to be purists about. What happened to good old religious persecution?

Hot dogs > God.

God is a belief. Hot dogs are a certainty.

Can't be the best in the world, you don't even serve them with vinegar! And they should be called Chips!

Bun and Chili.

Anything else is just getting silly and fancy, and it's no longer a hot dog.

I object! Must. Have. Cheese.

Hot dogs have only three viable iterations:

Bun, Heinz Ketchup, and Yellow Mustard.

Bun and Chili with optional cheese.

On a stick immersed in deep-fried corn batter.

Edited for great justice.
