    The onions, is it?



    Well, they don't actually pile up an 'inch' high. More like half an inch, at which point they start falling off.



    Hey, raw onions are a good source of essential nucleic acids.



    One simply must plan a socially-convenient time to eat them.



    I *do* like to pile diced green chilies an *inch* high on pork chops or chopped steak. And those *stay* piled.

    No. I just don't like hotdogs. At some point in my misspent youth I realized that hotdogs are simply a poor excuse for a condiment carrier.

    actually, to set the record straight: I don't smoke or drink [never have], but I do have a hot dog about every day. (and I am trying to cut back on soda)...



    hardeeharhar, a hot dog can be so much more. It is the basic staple of the American culture. In many cultures, meat wrapped around bread with veggies is the base:



    Gyro, Taco, Hot Dog, Norwegian Lizard Wraps....

    Soon after figuring out that hotdogs have no real purpose, I gave up eating mammals, and haven't save for a piece of lamb eaten any since.



    FYI: It's not a moral or ethical concern, I never liked the taste of beef, didn't each much pork, and I am a better eater than I was when a burger was enough... The all mammals thing came about from my desire to describe my dietary limits, and my simultaneous desire not to be a hypocrite.

    actually a hot dog a day might be worse than a ciggie a day

    When I was a kid we lived in a small town downstate and we'd come up here to chicago for a cub game, and I remember seeing all the shops that just sold hot dogs....it was so exotic!



    Now that I've lived here a few years, it's kind of worn off, but one piece of trivia, at chicago hot dog joints your dog always includes fries.

    This thread has got me thinking, and I have come up with two things;



    1) I am now hungry as hell.



    2) There is noplace close to me that sells Hot Dogs.



    Any of you here who have been to New Orleans or more specifically to Bourbon Street might be familiar with "Lucky Dogs". My wife and many of my friends think these are the most disturbing thing one could injest. I however think they are the best thing in the world at 2am in a drunken stuper, and taste just as good coming back up

    I used to enjoy hotdogs a lot but about a year and a half ago I became a vegetarian and vegheads can not, let me repeat CAN NOT make a good hot dog replacement...it is really the only thing that I miss meat wise.

    I guess it's appropriate to say that the soccer team I play for is partly sponsored by a local chain of hot dog joints called "Longdoggers." This is nice in that I get discounts on hot dogs as well as beer, which is also sold at Longdoggers.

    I once got addicted to eating baked cod for dinner. This went on for six months. Finally, one day I happened to order a hamburger from McDonald's and found that it tasted really foul. I couldn't eat it and had to toss it in the trash.



    I guess my system had become cleansed, or something. For years afterward, I had trouble eating meat. Eventually, I was able to eat cuts like filet mignon. Even now, the reason I pile green chilies on pork chops and chopped steak is to make sure I don't get that 'icky' meat taste that once grossed me out so badly. Weird, huh?

    Hot dogs are the only street food allowed sold by the city. Why? Because you can't get sick eating dogs. All hotdogs are pre-cooked before frozen. You could serve them cold and you still wouldn't get sick. Unlike other foods.
