HOT DOGS V. TACOS

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Dude, the results of this poll are going to be like...earth ending.

Watch out, Chicago. LA is sharpening its tacos.

torta with hot dog in it

Have you seen this?

Yeah, I feel like it's usually called "torta la loca" or something and has a breaded cutlet, some ham or something, avocado, lettuce, tomatoes, crema, queso fresco, jalapenos, and then a split hot dog or two. When you're eating it you don't really sense the hot dog qua hot dog so much, it's just kind of a big disgusting awesomeness that comes at you whole.

Tried to have Chicago Dogs for the supper tonight but just couldn't pull it together. No sport peppers, out of relish, underripe tomato, foolishly decided to toast and then accidentally overtoasted the "wheat" buns. At least I had the all-beef frank and Plochmann's mustard. Still basically a travesty and I feel shame for having eaten them.

also xpost I used to get hotdogs in Tijuana all the time. The dog is bacon-wrapped and served with mayo. Plus onions and all that. Best ever.

you know what made me sad about all the rain we got this week was that it meant that the hotdog vendor wasn't across the street from my store all week. so, that is where my heart is. i wouldn't have been so sad if a taco vendor was forced to stay home. if it was burrito -vs- hot dog i might have had to think twice. mmmm, steak burritos at the mexican place down the street are way yummy. haven't even tried their tacos yet.

although to be honest i am all about the hot dog vendor's hot sausage with peppers and onions. as opposed to his hot dogs. but his hot dogs are good too. very long and crunchy.

crunchy! scott, can you get "saugy" brand dogz in MA? i think they might be a rhode island only thing, but you should look for them if you are ever at a stop & shop in the ocean state.

mmmm, i will. pittsfield mass used to have a famous crunchy hot dog place. don't know if it's still there. my dad would drive us there when we were kids.

saugy's have a really good natural casing kind of snap to 'em. i love it. in fact, i wish i had some right now.

yeah, that's what i mean by crunchy. the casing.

voted hot dog because i am half-Chilean and always enjoy something looking roughly like these photos when I'm back in the old country:

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

basically

i assumed tacos would win, but i at least hoped for a good fight from the dogz. especially with tomorrow being you know, the fourth and not cinco de mayo.

i just love america ok

this is the biggest amount of votes ive ever seen

Tacos win only because they vary so much....so they mean so much to so many varied people.

I was thinking it was a surprisingly small number of votes for such a popular thread!

i love tacos, but dogs wuz robbed

tacos = ahmadinejad

hahaha

81-26 tacos is surprising. I was expecting more like 78-29 tacos. In any event GO USA~

Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in this history of mankind.

Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.

We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.

We will be united in our common interests.

Perhaps its fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution -- but from annihilation.

We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.

And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:

"We will not go quietly into the night!

We will not vanish without a fight!

We're going to live on!

We're going to survive!"

Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!

the lopsided nature of the poll reflects the clear superiority of tacos

Think of it: how many wars today could be prevented if we could wipe
everyone's memory of history? -- of, say, knowledge of what happened
more than 50 years ago.

true. the hot dog variety revolution is really only just beginning.

ˆˆˆˆˆˆhold the cilantro on these new dogs.

i voted dog

i think the reasoning at the time is i eat more dogs in one sitting than tacos

In Japan, hotdogs are used in bento boxes and are often sliced to resemble an octopus.

In Tuvalu, Hot Dogs are served traditionally on Bournivalian Holidays. They consist on a little wheat bun, a lamb (or goat) sausage and purple coleslaw. They are cooked during a ceremony where the priest, or even the Majestic Goddess, blesses them.

Reigning champ Joey Chestnut beat out six-time titleholder Takeru Kobayashi in Coney Island's annual hot-dog eating contest. He ate 68 hot dogs in 10 minutes.

let it be known, there will be a weinermobile...or taco cart, or better yet Sammy's Halal at my funeral.

i had tacos for lunch! 1 chicken w/ pipian mole, 1 calabacita. latter was disappointing; wish i'd ordered two of the chicken/mole.

His bologna had a first name. His bologna had a last name. So did he.

I somehow thought that Selzer was some cool vampire that lived forever.
