Quote:National Hot Dog Council Has Spoken: A Hot Dog Is Not a Sandwich

 

A hot dog is not a sandwich, the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council ruled on Friday after days, or perhaps decades, of sizzling debate. The issue was particularly contentious this week, as some Americans celebrating National Sandwich Day were unclear whether hot dogs could properly be consumed on this most joyous of occasions.

Theres a National Hot Dog Council ?  Wow.

Do they get paid? Get a wiener mobile? Own dachshunds? Is Anthony the CEO? Name their kids Oscar or Nathan? Is Joey Chestnut on the board of directors? Do they spar with The National Hamburger Council? Do they get bullied by the Bratwurst Council? And finally... when someone actually slid his wiener into a bun, how did the name "hot dog" arise?
