I'm sorry, but the superior way to eat a hot dog is to top the finger bun THEN add your sausage on top. I have absolutely no idea why people have all the wets in prime position for making mess and going up your nose.
Title says it all really. I USED to eat a hotdog the same way as you'd normally expect in the UK. Open finger bun, grilled hotdog, fried onions and then ketchup and mustard. Absolutely God tier combination, easy to make, easy on the wallet, crowdpleaser. I found myself actively avoiding hotdogs because I used to get annoyed at the toppings getting all over my top lip/nose. The brainwave only relatively recently happened, I'd say 4-5 years ago maybe? I was craving a juicy dog and that wonderful snap, so due to not wanting it all over my face I just topped my bun with onions, English mustard, and ketchup and put my sausage on top. It's so much cleaner, you get more even toppings distribution in every bite, stuff doesn't drip everywhere, and it doesn't cover your face in sauce. submitted by /u/ChickenMonkey24601 [link] [comments]
