I have a olde-tymey Coke glass filled to the brim with Coke Zero. No ice. If my pop is cold enough, and fresh enough, I don’t like ice. If it’s warm or flat though, it’s a must. > [@Giraffe](#): > > Why are you eating them frozen? Excellent question. See, this is exactly how you play “Ask the guy who…” Nice job. Oh, and I know that you’re being clever, but I actually pulled them out of the oven too early. The first bite hit a cold center, so I had to put them back in for a bit. ---

> [@Procrustus](#): > > do you have enough to share? Yes, actually I do. We get the big boxes (Target big, not Costco big) of a dozen or fifteen corn dogs. They’re normally for the kids, but once in awhile when we don’t feel like cooking or spending any cash - we throw a few in the oven. ---

> [@Smapti](#): > > Are they the ones with jalapenos and cheese inside, or the regular kind? They’re regular, but made of chicken instead of beef or pork. They’re made by Foster Farms (which makes me hate myself a bit since I’ve seen Food, Inc.). > [@carnut](#): > > Which type of mustard do you put on them, if any? I prefer to slather a corn dog with dill mustard before I partake. I love plain yellow mustard on my corn dogs, and we’re currently using the French’s variety. Sometimes I squirt a puddle on my plate and dip them, and sometimes I slather them before I eat. Probably 50/50 split on that depending on my mood. > [@NinjaChick](#): > > How do you think they compared to my frozen soy-based pseudo-beef taquitos, consumed with some delicious locally-brewed beer? Mine tasted better because of the cruelty. ---

> [@pudytat72](#): > > ketchup or mustard? I use only mustard now (French’s or store brand yellow) but I used to do a ketchup/mustard mix. Sort of my own “corn dog sauce.” > [@needscoffee](#): > > I wish they made some with lowfat dogs. These aren’t that unhealthy, believe it or not. They’re made of chicken and have very low fat and decently low calories. I get this kind because I don’t feel as guilty serving them to my kids from time to time. > [@](#): > > Why aren’t you microwaving them? I usually nuke them for the kids, about a minute and a half or so, and they like them that way. I really don’t like how the corn batter gets all spongey. I prefer a crunchy coating. I wasn’t very hungry so I figured I had time to do them up right. ---

do you dip them in yellow mustard and then pretend to fellate them and suck the mustard off only to dip again and repeat several times before taking the first bite like a roommate in college used to do? Isn’t twitter better for this kind of thing? ---

> [@BayouHazard](#): > > Do they make your sweat smell like a corn dog afterward? I can never smell myself.

Let me try it out to see if…heyyyyy, wait a darn second…why are you called Bearflag, Bearflag? > [@gladtobeblazed](#): > > Anything on the side? Chips? Soup? While I was waiting for the corn dogs to finish cooking all the way through, I grabbed some Wheat Thins and some Alouette garlic & herb cheese spread which we had leftover from a picnic at a Ravinia Park concert (Rodrigo y Gabriella, which was divine). I actually ate more of these than I’d planned and started filling up, but I was able to rally and finish the corn dogs. ---

They’re pretty reasonably priced too… $6 or so for a box (this one contains 16 corn dogs) and they’re usually on sale. You just have to find a Target w/ a decently sized grocery.
