Baseball and apple pie aside, nothing says America!
more than the legendary hot dog. Though many of us wouldn’t touch one
with a ten-foot pole if we knew what was actually in most of of them, hot dogs continue to be a mainstay on our dinner tables, backyard picnics, BBQs, and American culture.
Recently Brynn Mannino over at WomansDay.com
compiled a list of ten of the best and admittedly weirdest hot dog
recipes around. We have chosen 5 of those to share with you.
Spaghetti Dogs
Not that we have anything against a meal that looks like it
was made in the Play-Doh Fun Factory press—we’re just not sure if we
would eat it. That said, the creation of this meal is actually not very
labor intensive: Simply puncture slices of raw hot dog with uncooked
spaghetti noodles and boil.

Chinese Hot Dog
At
Eden Wok, the glatt kosher Chinese and sushi restaurant in
New York City, diners can find egg roll-wrapped hot dogs on the
appetizer menu. The hot dog is encased in a sheet of egg-dipped and
deep-fried dough—and goes for $2.50.

The Hamdog
Mulligan’s Bar in Decatur, Georgia, is home of the Hamdog.
Herein lies the contents of this creation: One hoagie roll, one hot dog
wrapped in a half-pound of beef patty then deep-fried and topped with
chili, bacon and a fried egg.

The Chihuahua
Crif Dogs, the popular New York City eatery located in the
East Village, is beloved for its variety of wrapped and overloaded
franks. This particular culinary explosion contains a hot dog blanketed
in bacon then capped with sour cream and avocado.

The Cornhole
We’re not entirely sure how you go about eating this, but we
can guarantee that the calories consumed are devastating. From the
center moving outwards, there is corn on the cob wrapped with hickory
bacon, which is then surrounded by alternating hotdog slices and
Colby-Jack cheese sticks before being encased in ground beef.
