I got dumped over a hot dog???
YAY! No anchovies or pineapple though.
(My SO is with you. Loathes the very smell of ketchup.)
I’m way ahead of you on this one, but they don’t return my phone calls.
I am a barbarian, am I not?
It’s sort of a whoosh, no one is actually suggesting outlawing ketchup on dogs. But dogs can most certainly be considered haute cuisine, if they’re done right. And most dog afficianados agree that mustard enhances the taste, while ketchup buries it.
Much like putting bacon on sundaes – there’s no law against it, but true sundae afficianados would wrinkle their noses.
Anaamika, I’m not dumping you. But you may need to go to wiener re-education camp for a bit. :eek:
Try a webcam and charge a fee. It works out a lot better.
Yes I am. Already shot off letters to Shumer and Clinton to get this on the next Senate agenda.
If she put ketchup on the hot dog, not washing her hands would probably improve the taste.
Forgive him, Lord, for he comes from a benighted land where all he can get are Oscar Mayer and Ballpark dogs. He has never had the pleasure of biting into a fine Hebrew Nationa, Best’s Kosher, or even Vienna Beef dog with all the trimmings. I fear he would even take off the sport peppers, but have no proof.
People WANT to taste the hot dog? :eek: I thought that goes against the idea of having 85% of the weight of the dog be condiments and bread… 
You might be surprised to learn they did something similar to that here in Jackson County. A boy, coincidently named Cole, bought mayonaisse to put upon his cabbage and the vendor, through unscrupulous means, kept the mayo on the shelf long past its expiration date. The cabbage had also rotted and Cole, being too young to tell the difference, mixed it with the bad mayo and ate it. Cole died from food poisoning and the community was in shock. Angered, they called upon lawmakers to have every food vendor in the county register the dates in which they received new shipments of mayo or cabbage as well as their respective expiration dates.
The solution worked like a charm. No one else has died. All thanks to Cole’s law.
Wouldn’t that have gummed up his gears and springs?
HEY! Those Ballpark Grill Masters are DAMNED good.
However, I will make a note of exception for the pro-ketchup side: if said ketchup is ANY other brand than Heinz, it is evil and Satanic.
So Anaamika isn’t alone, I’ll poke my head in and say I will only eat hot dogs with ketchup on them. I have also been known, in my younger years, to eat steak with ketchup (only at home, and not like prime quality). To compound my offenses, I’ll also say I loathe mustard and relish and they are disgusting to me.
You’re so going to hell!

We’re talking about junk food here. Put what you want on it. Who cares? Personally, I’ll take mine with ketchup and pickle relish. Or possibly melted cheese and jalapenos. Or some spicy brown mustard. It’s not about actually tasting the hot dog, for goodness’ sake.
Whatever floats your boat. Personally, when I want haute cuisine, I’ll have me some filet mignon, or perhaps lobster (or some fresh Rocky Mountain oysters ;)). But hot dogs are something I eat because they’re quick & easy and the bun fits nicely in my hand.
