Hotdogs!

I had no clue what to blog about for my first blog. I wanted it to be over a topic that was interesting to read but it would bore the common reader to death! So I was sitting at the basketball game on Saturday the 15th helping out with concessions. I pondered for a very long time. Then out of nowhere a peer asked me about what I thought about hot dogs. I told her everything I knew about them or what I have heard about hotdogs. So right there and then it struck me to write about those delicious hotdogs we like to eat at basketball and football games, we even like to bring them out when barbeques take place. This is what I know about hotdogs. I know the word hotdog came from the word frankfurter. I also know that when hotdogs were first produce, meat butchers used pig intestine to hold the meat in its cylindrical shape. That case of using the pig intestine is really used anymore unless if you get your hotdogs or brats from a meat locker that isn’t a notional chain, like Oscar Meyer. They don’t use it on certain hotdogs and brats. Now some say hotdogs are made up of left over parts of the pig, like its lips and butt hole. I really don’t think OSHA would approve on having hotdogs made from those parts. I could see back in the late 1800s and early 1900s meat plants and lockers making the hotdogs out of those very delicious parts! That was a time period where there was no OSHA program and people could do anything to your food and drink! The book "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair shows how the meat packing plants worked back then, it was really bad! Another thing is why do people smoother there hotdogs with ketchup and mustard! I think too much ketchup and mustard will ruin the great taste of a hotdog! Hotdogs are good even with out all that crap on it, people should just ask for a hotdog bun with crap ton of ketchup and mustard on it! And also I don’t get why people like sauerkraut on there dogs. I like sauerkraut and all but just not with my dogs! The really only one thing i like my hotdogs smoothered in is chillie! I love chillie dogs! There is just something about the taste that i like, its like a partable bowl of chilie except it on a bun with a hotdog in the middle of the chillie! Hotdogs are good and all, it just depends on how you look at it!
