2007 was the year of Hot Dog Etiquette. How well we handle those bun wrapped puppies come July 4 of 2008, who knows? None of our sources agree when asked who started the Hot Dog Wars now becoming to be known as the Weiner War. The only thing they do agree on is Hot Dog Etiquette rules still apply, so they’ll be once more made available to you right after your War News. This year since January 1, Americans have consumed 956,000,000 hot dogs not counting our munch of choice at sports events, trade shows, conventions, country fairs. The battle for the bun was predictable when hot dog makers discovered we are eating a lot of dogs in 2008 but our numbers are the same as 2007, we are not eating more of them. Not to be outdone, arch rival Ball Park came up with the Angus Beef Hot Dogs, touting they now bring you the First National Hot Dog to contain real Angus Beef. It sounds like somebody may be making Hot Dogs with faux Angus Beef but we can’t find them to ask. So no matter the lack of civility between leading Hot Dog makers, it is every bit as important to Eat Your Hot Dog Correctly, Please. With National Hot Dog day almost here, peak lake and sea shore barbecuing, those back yard smokers heating up, camp sites getting hot dog ready, its more important than ever that we all display our best Hot Dog Eating manners, “Eat them dogs right:,” exclaims our National Hot Dog & Sausage Council. # Condiments always always applied directly on top of the dog. They never ever go on under it, on the bun. # Dress that Dog in proper Order please: Wet condiments first, mayo, catsup, relish, chili, or sauerkraut. # Followed by dry goodies, chopped or sliced onions, grafted or melted cheese(s), garlic chips, then herb-salt and basil pepper last. # Hot Dogs must absolutely appear on real Hot Dog buns. Bread slices are permissible only during dire times such as 33 miles to Hot Dog Buns from the camp site. # Seasoned buns, buns with onion bits or celery seeds are acceptable.
