Here's one for vegetarians and meat eaters alike: sides and condiments.

1) Which side(s) do you prefer: Beans, Potato Chips or Mac & Cheese?  

2) Condiment(s): ketchup, mustard, relish (India or Sweet), sauerkraut or cheese?

3) Will you eat a plain hot dog in a bun? Without a bun?

1) beans at a barbeque, potato chips on a lazy sunday, mac & cheese late at nite.

2) ketchup if nothing else is around, mustard always, relish never, sauerkraut unknown, and cheese on weekends i dont care what i eat

3) hot dogs belong in buns

I had a chili dog at the Varsity in Atlanta once and it made my lips get all swollen and puffy.

People pay good money for that.

My favorite part of vegetarianism might be never having to eat a hot dog.

Bah.  Don't knock something you've never tried.  Do I dismiss vegetarian hot dogs out of hand?  I do not.  How's about a little golden rulery here?

Sweet relish and sweet pickles are disgusting.

I often refer to them as "the food of the devil".

*gag*

As much as I want to throw in my vote for the local Rhode Island favorite NY System Hot Weenie...



I've gotta put the Gray's Papaya Sleazewhistle at the top of my list.



Recession Special!

That's a little teeny baby alien on that upper one, isn't it?

... which are awesome!!! And gross. At the same time.
My friends and I held our second annual NYS rally this past Columbus Day where we drove around RI going to all the different NYS joints.

But back to the question, and a question from myself:

Why must I choose? They're all fantastic.

[break]

1. beans

2. mustard

3.

None of the above.

I love any frank with a natural casing especially if it's all beef.  We have a brand up here called Pearl that makes franks that are just as good or better than Nathan's, Sabrett or Hebrew National.

1) Chips
2) I used to use only ketchup until just recently when I discovered spicy brown mustard, now I put both on my franks.
3) Rolls, preferably heated or even better lightly grilled or fried.

I have a few pet peeves about hot dogs though, like the famous Chicago Style Hot Dog, where people get bent out of shape if you put ketchup on it because it supposedly overshadows the dog's flavor, but they think it's perfectly okay to dump a dozen vegetables on top of it.  Vienna Beef Char Dogs are among the best I've ever had, but I can't stand all the extras Chicagoans seem to love (same thing goes with their deep dish "pizza").
