Do you put ketchup on your hotdog ?

[Hector]

Exactly ^^^^

It's just a bloody hot dog, let's all calm the heck down...

The first time I came to the US, I asked for a beer in a restaurant.
I didn't know they were Mormon. The woman nearly bit my nose off. She was angry.
If I had known, I wouldn't have asked.

The food was awesome, btw...

Any place that kicks out a tourist over what they put on a Hot Dog should be hit
with a law suit. Hot Dogs are not a gourmet meal, and if you looked at the ingrediants in the meat than ketchup is the least of the problem. Ball park Hot Dog vendors keep the same
franks that they don't sell for months( soaking in water until the next game) and the Hot Dog you did'nt buy last time you could end up eating the next time

Yea, you have to be kinda discrete and low-key when in the US... Especially if you don't know the people

We have a lot of crazies here.

Next time come to the North East ...

I can't say we're sane, but we are more normal than the rest of the country

I'm not trying to throw gasoline on a campfire here, but look. Here's the thing, Jimmy's is widely considered the best hot dog "joint" in Chicago and serves "Chicago Style" hot dogs. You don't put ketchup on a "Chicago Style" hot dog because it is no longer a "Chicago" hot dog, it changes the recipe. Just like anyplace that serves you a pizza that that is less than 3" thick isn't giving you "Chicago Style Pizza."
Also, it has signs all over the place that say "We don't have ketchup, don't ask." it's their thing. Kinda like Ed Dabevick's insults the diners, it's understood when you go in, or the restaurant that throws the rolls at the customers who ask for bread. And for the record, Chicagoans in general are known for being outspoken about their opinions regardless of who wants it or if you even care. The "windy city" has nothing to do with the weather. As for anyone telling you how to do, or not do a thing, I agree, it's all up to you.

That still doesn't give them the right to tell someone to leave if they ask for it. And I'd be the one to bring in my OWN ketchup and put it on the dog right in front of the management!

LOL....okay, you missed the point. When I say they had signs everywhere, I mean EVERYWHERE. It's their thing, no ketchup on a Chicago hot dog. It's like going to Burger King and ordering a BigMac. That's it, that's all. No personal attacks, no commie hiding under the bed, and it certainly no affront to the bill of rights. Take it easy, sit back and enjoy your hot dogs however you like.

The best hot dog I have ever tried is a Sonora hot dog with tomatos, mayonaise ,
mustard, pinto beans and other good stuff and it is'nt from Chicago

[mickeymoosemego]

Not on the Ketchup or Catsup!

[Bruce Banner]

but not Hot dogs, nothing but lips and assholes in those

I'm pretty sure the microwave hot dogs I buy contain lips, snouts and anuses. But I eat them anyway.
Only with American mustard though... tried English mustard once and it was like Alien blood.

Hotdogs are so different from one to the other.

There's no comparison between one bought at the grocery store and a red Polish footlong with natural "snappy" casing.
