Fun Facts About Hot Dogs

1. The council estimates that Americans consume 20 billion hot dogs a year - more than twice the
retail sales figures. Basically, that's 70 hot dogs per American.

2. The first hot dog stand to open in America was in 1971 by Charles Feltman. He was a German butcher and he opened the first stand at Coney Island. He sold 3,684 dachshund sausages in a milk roll in his first year. 

3. One barbeque king theorizes that hot dogs are sold in packages of 10 and buns are sold in packages of 8 because 2 of the hot dogs always fall through the grill, so only 8 buns are needed.

4. Hot dog etiquette states that you should not use ketchup on your hot dog after the age of 18. Mustard, relish, onions, cheese and chili are acceptable.

5. Legend has is that hot dogs or frankfurters originated in Frankfurt-am-Main Germany around 1484.

6. Hot dog season lasts from the unofficial start of summer, Memorial Day, until the unofficial end of summer, Labor Day. Of course at Casablanca, hot dog season is ALL year long!
