Look at this poo poo. Are there really people out there counting the exact number of bites it takes them to eat one lest they offend the hot dog council? Why are people so pretentious about a tube of rat anuses?

I figure stuff like hot dog rules started as poor people mocking the habits of the wealthy and then everyone just kinda forgot that it was done in satire.

Browsing the Americana thread has taught me that people get weird about hot dogs probably more so than any other junk food. It's like the pineapple on pizza debate on steroids.

More than half of that list is just stupid

If I'm eating a fully loaded chili dog in one of those paper trays and can't even see the dog itself due to amount of chili, cheese, and onions (and brother that better be the case) you can suckle my friggin balls if you're offended I use a plastic fork to eat it rather than attempt the literal equivalent of eating slop from a bucket with my hands

No you see they have rules because they're snobbish. We have rules because our way is correct and everyone else is wrong

I wasn't aware there were rules until now. I'm calling bullshit on the first one, put the frank in the bun AFTER the dressings. Stuff will still fall out but at least not as much. Also, it's a hotdog - trashy food made for trashy condiments. Ketchup is fine for all ages.

Wouldn't be a GBS food thread unless you came in and got dramatically angry about how everyone is wrong but you.

Anyhow, these days I'll only eat a hotdog if I get it from a German at the xmas food fairs in the city. 2 inch thick, 12 inch long bratwurst in a crusty baguette with fried onions and sriracha, mmmmm.

That wasn't always the case. I used to buy cheap franks from Lidl and put them on bridge rolls with a smear of ketchup down one side of the bun, raw onion, tobasco and gherkins down the other. They were gone in two bites - I often ate three at a time. That was in my 20's, I'm more careful about what I eat now.

I serve pizza most days. Every time there's pineapple on it, I'm not sure if it's the same guy or if it's just the same archetype of guy, but some rear end in a top hat comes by the serving line and, in a lovely, moronic white Californian surfer bro accent he says, "Pineapple on pizza? I don't know, man! Kinda weird!" I want to jump over the counter and slap the poo poo out of him. We've been putting pineapple on pizza since World War Two, you twat.

There's nothing cool about it, no matter how much they try.

Its very basic low quality food elevated because of damaged pride and shame.

There's nothing shameful though, except the attitude.

I break hot dog rules every time I get some Hebrew Nattys or Nathan's ALL BEEF dogs, wrap em in the pre-cooked bacon, then wrap that in a crescent roll and cook em in the oven. A regular bacon wrapped crescent dog can serve as a main course alongside some sides like beans, fries or even a salad, or you can make em with those little cocktail size dogs for a nice appetizer or finger food for a party.

Taking off the intestinal skin and eating it first, separately, and calling it a luxury.

Everything about this screams satire to me.

The headline describing hot dogs as "America's sacred food"

The bun preference "Sun-dried tomato buns or basil buns are considered gauche with franks."

And likewise the condemnation of sending thank you notes to a host of a bbq because hotdogs are so unpretentious lmao

The five bite rule :jerkbag:

The express damnation of wiping or washing your hands after consuming hot dogs.

And the coup de grâce, there's never a wrong time for hot dogs? There's so many other dos and don'ts, time of day being irrelevant is an impossibility in my mind.

So yeah like BluPotato said it's either 100 percent satire or was originally satire and now everyone has too many brainworms to know that was the case.

I decided to look up wikipedia and found this:

quote:

The word "frankfurter" comes from Frankfurt, Germany, where pork sausages similar to hot dogs originated.[9] These sausages, Frankfurter Würstchen, were known since the 13th century and given to the people on the event of imperial coronations, starting with the coronation of Maximilian II, Holy Roman Emperor, as King. "Wiener" refers to Vienna, Austria (German: Wien), home to a sausage made of a mixture of pork and beef.[10] Johann Georg Lahner, an 18th/19th century butcher from the Franconian city of Coburg, is said to have brought the Frankfurter Würstchen to Vienna, where he added beef to the mixture and simply called it Frankfurter.[11] Nowadays, in German-speaking countries, except Austria, hot dog sausages are called Wiener or Wiener Würstchen (Würstchen means "little sausage"), to differentiate them from the original pork-only mixture from Frankfurt. In Swiss German, it is called Wienerli, while in Austria the terms Frankfurter or Frankfurter Würstel are used.

So if these rules are a hold over from the days when people in germany ate hot dogs to commemorate the crowning of royalty then I can understand where all this bullshit etiquette came from. Wouldn't want to offend medieval royalty and get tortured to death.

Yes the 13th century Germans are famous for their use of paper plates and napkins, but only when eating frankfurters during coronation ceremonies.
