I've been visiting the U.S. once or twice per year since 1976, and I've eaten a lot of local favourites, 5 alarm chilli in Texas and Oklahoma, fried green tomatoes in Dixie, grits too, I love grits, Philly cheese steak, anywhere, not just the city of brotherly love.
Key lime pie in Florida, pizza in New York, and Chicago, both good, couldn't pick a winner, gumbo and po' boys in Louisiana, Buckeye peanut butter balls in Ohio, but I'm not a lover of hot dogs, I tried one in Yankee Stadium, I think I had dill pickle and diced onions on it, I don't like ketchup or mustard.
The pickle and onions were great, I didn't like the actual dog, processed franks are an acquired taste, and I never acquired it.
So put ketchup on or not, leave me out, and give me a burger, or gator bits instead.

I love hot dogs! Grilled with spicy horse radish mustard, or with Coney Island onions, or with fresh chopped onion,tomatoes, dill pickles and celery salt, or chili, or sauerkraut and mustard. And many other toppings.

You like ketchup? Don't let the "Hot Dog Council" stop you. But do know what goes into your average hot dog.

What's REALLY in your hotdog? You might never eat one again after watching this... | Daily Mail Online


That's why I usually only buy Sabrett's or Hebrew National All Beef Hot Dogs. "They answer to a higher authority".

The National Hot Dog Council says that the official word is "ketchup" and that anyone who spells it "catsup" is officially barred from eating hot dogs until compliance is achieved.

I like ketchup on my hot dog. It is my hot dog so I prepare it the way I like to eat it. I don't really care what anybody else thinks about it. I didn't know there was a "hot dog council" or whatever and don't really give a rip but anyway, the whole point of putting condiments on a hot dog is to cover up the fact that it is a bunch of little pieces of lips, peckers and a$$holes leftover from food processing that are made into a tube and sold.

this is an article from 2014, but it brings up a classic argument...should ketchup be on a hot dog?
never!!!! And no damn mustard on burgers. I'd rather have maggots than either.

Again this is for COMPETITION, it's not a real guideline to follow if you aren't in a hot dog prep competition. If you are at a stadium, multi-touch arena, restaurant, movie theater or home and want to put Ketchup, catsup, catsoup or catchup on your dog, nobody is gonna complain with you...

There's a National Hot Dog Council!? Ha!

I usually put yellow mustard, saurkraut, and raw onions on mine. (Also only Hebrew National or Nathans beef dogs.)

Not a big fan of ketchup on anything except hamburgers. Especially not on hot dogs or French Fries!

What I'd like to know is; why do the hot dogs from a vendor taste so much better than what I can make at home?

Is it a certain type/brand?
