For real though if I was a poor ass Toad living in the Mushroom Kingdom and saw Mario playing tennis with Bowser I’d be like “despite their pretend disagreements there really is only the uniparty”

According to one story, the use of the complete phrase hot dog was by coined Thomas Dorgan circa 1900 in a cartoon recording the sale of hot dogs during a New York Giants baseball game. He may have used the term because he did not know how to spell "dachshund"

Antoine Feuchtwanger sold hot dogs in St. Louis, Missouri, providing gloves to his customers so they could handle the sausages without burning their hands. Losing money when customers did not return the gloves, his wife suggested serving them in a roll.

The word frankfurter comes from Frankfurt, Germany, where pork sausages similar to hot dogs originated. Known since the 13th century, these were given to the people during imperial coronations, starting with that of Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian II.

It is debated whether a hot dog is a sandwich. The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council says a hot dog is not a sandwich. Hot dog eating champions Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi agree with the NHDSC. Merriam-Webster, however, has stated that a hot dog is indeed a sandwich. #hotdogfacts #gamedev

Wow!
A hot dog (commonly spelled hotdog) is a food consisting of a grilled or steamed sausage served in the slit of a partially sliced bun. The term hot dog can refer to the sausage itself.
