Hot Dog Day |
Hot dogs are really "frankfurters" and were first made in Frankfurt, Germany. But, people called them "dachshund sausage," because they looked like the dog. In the U.S., the German sausages were popular with New York baseball fans - vendors sold them in sandwiches by yelling, "Get your dachshund sausages while they're red hot." In a newspaper cartoon, the vendors were shown selling real dogs inside a roll, yelling "Get your hot dogs!". The name stuck. |
