Here representing the kiwis. I was looking for this one on the chart.

I moved to Australia in my 30s. These still don't completely sit right with me.

Haha was about to say the same thing, this image never fails to evoke anger wherever it goes.

As a German: nobody I know would call that a hotdog. If we talk about hotdog it is the one pictured for Denmark

14

Or just plain Bratwurst im Brötchen. With ketchup and mustard typically applied by the customer, usually using these disgusting squeezy-bottle-thingies

The Amsterdam dog really isn't anything dutch or traditional. It's just cheap pre baked nasty stuff that only tourists eat because they're not returning customers and thus won't complain about shitty food

We honestly don't really have our own hotdog style. A specific raw beef with pickles on a white bread roll tho (broodje ossenworst met kesbeke), that's the good stuff

14

It looks like it was specifically designed to be sold to traveling Americans. My brother would probably get two before trying one.

What the fuck? I live near Denver and I've never had a Denver. This is bullshit!

Grew up in the potato-growing part of Idaho. I've never seen that baked-potato-dog thing in my life. If anything, anecdotally, Idaho should be the "pig in a blanket": a bun baked around a hotdog and dipped in who gives a fuck. The cheap ones are just wrapped in Pillsbury croissant dough from the can, the good ones use homemade dough.

5

LMAO!! Like a Denver Omelette, never heard of it until it was on a movie. I lived here my whole damn life. People just be naming shit after is without our involvement.

4

I think they confused Denver and Phoenix. Because you're very likely to get something like that in the South West.

2

The Vietnam one is wrong. That’s a specialty banh mi. For what they call a ‘hot dog’ they slice them down the sides then fry them on a stick.

It's Icelands national dish and not on here wtf

8

Sweden: These are called Tunnbrödrulle (flat bread roll)

Chile: These are called Completos (complete ones, the whole package basically. A hot dog with everything on it). They are also commonly served with Chilean-style mustard and Ají, a spicy sauce.

If I had to choose between them, I'd go for a Completo. Those things will be the death of me, but I will in the very least die happy

All the ways to get your daily sodium nitrates. My only complaint is why isn't there a glazed hot dog?

I object to some of the information about the Norwegian hot dog. Firstly, lompe is not a tortilla: it's made from potatoes. (You also roll it all the way around the sausage.) The sausages are either shorter hot dogs or wieners. They are usually eaten with ketchup, mustard, onion (raw or roasted), and usually some sort of dressing. Simple and good.

Given both are potato based, what's the difference between lompe and lefse?

2

Lefse is a larger category. Lompe (also called "potetlefse") is a kind of lefse. Lefse can also be made from wheat, and there are different kinds. A lot of types of lefser are also eaten as a snack rather than as part of a meal, with either a sweet paste or butter, sugar, and cinnamon on top.

Who the hell is serving the Georgia one? Never heard of it, never seen it sold at a cart, never seen it at a fair. I’m calling bs.

Thanks! These clickbaits will claim any gas station monstrosity as a local delicacy.

3

Some are godly gifts from on high to bless our taste buds.
But others are abominations sent from below to befoul our mouths and stain our toilets.

1

The Norwegian one is a little simplistic. The wrap is a flat potato bread (lompe) and you always get the choice of a hotdog bun or a lompe. The sausage itself is either a plain sausage, one impregnated with cheese, one impregnated with cheese and wrapped in bacon, or one made of hamburger meat. There are then optional extras like pickle, onion, crispy fried onion etc and of course ketchup and or mustard.

These are available at pretty much every kiosk/news agent/gas station. The choices are pretty much always the same. Personally I go for a bacon and cheese sausage on a wholemeal bun with fried onions and mustard.

NY dirty water dogs are nothing more than a vessel for red onion sauce.

Note to self- visit Guatemala.

5

In parts of Germany, you'll get this, and it's frigging delicious. Crispy yet juicy.

That's also what you will be served in the, at over 500 years, world's oldest, still operating fast food kitchen.

There is a restaurant in Australia called Bunnings that only serves hotdogs. They have one every few kilometres. I think you can also buy tools and plants there.

5

Close, but it's a hardware store that has a charity stand out the front which sells a "snag in bread", or also called a sausage sizzle, cooked on a bbq. Your options are a snag in sandwich bread, onion, tomato sauce (ketchup) or mustard. Freshly made with the cheapest quality ingredients.

2

The Michigan one is what we Michiganders call a Flint Style Coney. Popularized by the hit chain restaurant which originated here in Flint, Halo Burger.

5

The NJ ripped (deep fried) ones are missing. Also the Carolina is misplaced. The slaw dog originated in WV.

lemmy.world

Venezuelan , the PERRO CALIENTE one is missing:

The Chilean one, the "completo" is literally missing mayonnaise:

The Japanese one: if you have a hot dog without the bun, is it even a hot dog?

The Peruvian one: It's called SALCHIPAPAS

Argentine one, is called CHORIPAN, and it's awesome

Norway one: basically lost the will to live

lemmy.world

What's it called when you're squeamish about textures so you only put ketchup and mustard on your dog?

3

Not kidding, we made and ate all of these over the course of a couple years. Most were good, some were amazing and a couple were terrible.

Would it be possible to have this poster printed? i'd like to hang this in my kitchen.

Don’t forget the Baltimore dog, Esskay hotdog in a bun with mustard, ketchup and chopped onions, then tell everyone how much better they are in New York.

Guatemala: remove the bacon wrap, remove lettuce, add ketchup. Like, you can get it with bacon and without ketchup but you have to request both those things extra. Lettuce is just weird.

There's a few weird things on this list. For example, someone really loves their mayonnaise.

Oh I'm sure some people do. But it seems very prevalent in this chart for a condiment that seems a lot less prevalent in real life.

1

I don't think Americans understand how much most of the world likes mayo.

Never had a swedish hot dog either, think they confused it with a falafel, which is pretty common in south sweden

2

Well, they should have added proper labels to them instead of just writing the country name.

The Swedish one is not strictly speaking a "Swedish-style hot dog" - when we eat hot dogs, it's mostly a bread/sausage/ketchup/mustard-deal. The one in the picture is a Tunnbrödrulle (flat bread roll), which does contain a sausage, but it's not what I would call a hot dog by any means.

They are good, though!

Seattle is probably my favorite. Good hack for New York is to ask them to put the hot sauce they usually use for kebabs/gyro on it

Something for everyone then. I was gonna say Seattle is the only one on there that sounds absolutely god awful.

it's fat + fat + fat. definitely not something I could eat regularly but after a night out in cap hill it's fire

Disclaimer, I’ve only even seen hot dog octopuses in Anime and Manga.

Usually it’s just to be cute. In fact sometimes characters comment on how it’s childish.

I did try making them for my son once because they’re pretty adorable and he likes both hot dogs and sea creatures, and he thought it was lame at 5. At 7 he thought they were awesome.

I had octopus hotdogs in Kansas in the 80s...

Well, they had four legs but we called them an octopus.

The Tijuana dog changed my life. A customer had made one of those for me and my partner when we installed their internet. I was a little doubtful at first, seeing what was on it, but I was wrong to.

Is a Tijuana dog also called devil dog?

1

I want both. Where is the crossover?
Hmm... I'm sure we could make a vegetarian version with bean based dogs.

2

Good list. No churro dog. No chili dog. My hot dog guy has this thing with sweet red cabbage slaw, bacon crumbles, sweet red hot dog sauce (not ketchup don't get me started) grated cheese, and his buns are grilled in thus great garlic butter he makes. He calls it his Texas dog because he's from Austin, and once a week he has a brisket dog that's respectable. Fuck I hope he's still open when I need dinner

A hotdog by definition always contains a boiled sausage stuffed inside a bun or something similar. A currywurst isn't a hotdog. It comes with fries and no bun Also that Germany variant in the pic isn't one. It's just the plain old delicious Bratwurst and Sauerkraut.

The standard hotdog you can find in Germany consists of a bun and sausage with ketchup, mustard, crispy onions, pickles and sometimes cole slaw.

1

While I appreciate the criteria for including a bun, this infographic opened up the option for no bun.

Where would that be the "standard"?
The most common sausage in a bun combination is just sausage, bun, ketchup/mustard.
Unless you're specifically talking about restaurants that have an item called "Hot Dog" on their menu, which in turn is rather rare.

I never saw such a 'light' hotdog. No matter where I went they always sold them with everything I wrote.

geissireply
feddit.org

They're not sold as 'hot dogs' but I'm pretty sure there isn't a place in Germany where plain old bratwurst in a plain old bun isn't a thing.

1

They can't be sold as hot dog because the sausage isn't boiled. A bratwurst is always fried or grilled.

I dunno man, lived in Chicago for a couple of years, never saw green relish. Also, it's a beef dog, no hog.

The Seattle dog doesn’t have jalapeños, cabbage, or siracha, and instead has grilled onions. It’s delicious.

The Seattle dog does indeed have jalapenos on it. And grilled onions! It's so good.

Where do you get yours? All the street vendors in Capitol Hill I see don’t have jalapeños.

1

I always skip over those vendors seeing shows. I’ll have to grab one next tome! Thanks!

2

The Colombian one is pretty accurate, but it should probably have bacon on it, too.

1

Many of those sound gross, but Baltimore....what the fuck man....soggy ass bread? I don't even have to ask if you're good because you are so apparently not ok.

Stuff it with some jack cheese, and The Amsterdam is literally Cheesy Blasters (from 30 Rock)
