Who does this? The condiments would be gone half way through this way. You gotta get them down the sides.

    I use mustard on the bun first, like glue for the weiner. (2nd grade level giggle) Then i pile on the onions, relish, or whatever on top

      I slather the crease in relish, then tuck diced tomatoes/onion/lettuce (eg) into the relish, then dog, then presentation mustard.

        relish from the grocery store has gotten so cheaply made you have to strain it first. even, and especially, the mass market ‘name brands’. i did run across one super off-brand, imported from turkey or india or something, that was great, though… and like half the store brand price.

        so unless i have that or strain the ‘regular’ stuff first, or just cut-up some pickles instead (what i’ve been doing more of lately), the relish goes on top. everything else goes on first.

    Shitpost aside, my dad did honey mustard under the dog while topping it with chili and cheese. It’s the only way to do that combo right.

    I’m confused. If I put mustard on a hotdog it looks exactly like that.

    (Aside from that bland yellow, I use real mustard)

    People with big mouths (like me, I have a big mouth) eat hotdogs in bites that span left to right, and top to bottom along (approximately) a plane that lies perpendicular to the axis along which the hotdog was extruded. With this approach, the condiments merely have to run the length of the hotdog (or just the bun if you dislike messy eating) in order for them to participate in every bite.

    Only small mouth dweebs that can’t fit a wide, juicy frank into their mouth when they’re gobbling down a… Nevermind, I think I got sidetracked.

    What I dislike about hot dogs is the fact that the sausage is bigger than the buns, like you’d never see a burger where the partty is spilling out of the bun too much, why are hot dog sausages not similar in size to hot dog buns, I want smaller sausage or bigger bun so that I can fit more toppings and condiments on it without any of it spilling out from the sides with every bite, a plain sausage and bun is boring for me.

      The sausage being too big is a more common complaint than people realize. Everyone assumes bigger is always better, but past a certain size it can be uncomfortable or even painful.

      You can work your way up to bigger sausages, though. Take your time, try to stay relaxed, and don’t forget to use a condiment!

          Some people think it’s normal to experience pain and even bleeding when eating a sausage for the first time, but with gentle stretching you can usually mitigate any discomfort. A few minutes a day for a few weeks is often enough. Be sure to have open lines of communication and a strong trust relationship with your chef.

      Lmao what? I’ve never heard of of anything asking for a more imbalanced meat to bun ratio.

      What other toppings are you trying to add? If a Chicago dog can have all its toppings with a polish sausage there’s no reason a normal hot dog couldn’t hold more of what you need.

      I disagree, I feel like the bread to dog ratio is always slightly too high, and I end up tearing some roll off

        I just position mine so the end is how I want it, and sometimes that means the first bite is mostly bread.

      And what’s the deal with hot dogs coming in packs of 6, and buns in 8? Atleast if it was the other way around, we could shove’em up our asses and call it a day. Laugh track, followed by stupid Seinfeld jingle
