sandwich

Should say it's a sandwich. Also maybe mention the controversy? Benjamin (talk) 10:39, 20 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A hotdog is NOT a sandwich. A sandwich is meat, with possibly cheese and other condiments or foods in between two pieces of bread. A hotdog bun is only one piece of bread with a cut in it. And it simply a torn loaf of bread. It’s not a sandwich. Xxjadynx (talk) 19:40, 16 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So if you cut or tear the bread all the way through before adding the meats, etc. it's a sandwich but if you leave that tiny, flimsy, prone to tear connection it's not? That makes no sense. It's a sandwich. --Khajidha (talk) 11:30, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Khajidha, Great example. See falafel sandwich. Bod (talk) 17:23, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what your point is there. --Khajidha (talk) 17:47, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Origin

Never th origin of hot dog is in United states. The origin of hot dog is Germany ! --Susocake (talk) 00:01, 7 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's a problem, then, - as to if you are speaking to the creation of a sausage or the combination of a sausage and split-roll. And finally, the naming of it. 70.160.12.49 (talk) 21:50, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe, the sausage Wiener or Frankfurter. But the complete Hot Dog with Hot Dog Rolls and Mustard is an American Idea. Fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:D1:27FF:F61:E859:9E9B:DD43:BB62 (talk) 09:54, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

add to the history section

A major aspect of hot dogs history includes the rise of food stands and restaurants that helped to add to give hot dogs personality and have them become popular. One of the most famous restaurants being Nathan’s Famous in New York City. The restaurant starting in 1916 by a Polish immigrant Nathan Handwerker, [who] started a nickel hot dog stand[1]. Slowly Nathan’s became one of the most famous hot dog stands in the world, featuring a hot dog eating contest yearly that draws millions to the TV. as well as featuring “restaurants across the globe [and] products in every supermarket in America[2],” (). Other hot dog stands become icons to regional areas across the United states Portillo's in Chicago, is one example. The founder, Dick Portillo, opened The first Portillo's hot dog stand known as "The Dog House" opens in 1963 on North Avenue in Villa Park[3]. Portillo’s has slowly become an icon to the Chicago land area and slowly seeping out and now being featured in other states around the Midwest. Portillo's also began shipping their food to all 50 states in the US allowing Residents in states outside of Illinois finally have a way to enjoy Portillo's food without taking a long road trip.[4]

I Thought it would be interesting to add to the hot dogs history section and talk about iconic restaurants that sell hot dogs. Rather than have an abrupt stop that ends with a brief mention of Nathan's Famous founder.

Okay, but wouldn't that organization fall under External_links#Official_links? Btw, I have no connection to the aforementioned, but found it to be useful for research into the subject. 2606:A000:1126:4CA:0:98F2:CFF6:1782 (talk) 21:54, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hot dogs do not have an official website. ~ GB fan 22:28, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Ingredients - "ingredients linked to health problems"

Claiming that sodium, fat and nitrites are linked with health problems is a large enough claim that this needs to be cited or reference some other article or removed. I would think removed would be better. Are we attempting to describe what the ingredients are or is someone trying to shoehorn in some of their own opinions? For example: Sodium, in excessive amounts may be linked to health problems, but it's also linked with necessary bodily functions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.59.11.239 (talk) 06:04, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]


==Etymology

"In the early 20th century, consumption of dog meat in Germany was common." This statement is misleading and prejudiced. Even with the citation of contemporary newspaper articles, which have to be considered biased and sensationalist. It doesn't add anything to the discussion. I would recommend deletion of the sentence — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.89.218.92 (talk) 13:50, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I created most of that section, just not that sentence. However, consumption of dog meat (knowingly) in America was extremely rare -- even a crime under some circumstances THEN. If you look under the "DOG MEAT" article, it provides different sources.

""Dog meat has been eaten in every major German crisis since, at least, the time of Frederick the Great, and is commonly referred to as "blockade mutton".[7] In the early 20th century, high meat prices led to widespread consumption of horse and dog meat in Germany.[164][165][166]

In the latter part of World War I, dog meat was being eaten in Saxony by the poorer classes because of famine conditions.[167]

The consumption of dog meat continued in the 1920s.[168][169] In 1937, a meat inspection law targeted against trichinella was introduced for pigs, dogs, boars, foxes, badgers, and other carnivores.[170] Dog meat has been prohibited in Germany since 1986.[171] .
