Bick's Hot Dog relish is pretty good, nicer than the green dill relish stuff.

When I see the vendors on the street here, I'm reminded of the countless abominations I consumed as a youth while wibble-wobbling around Trafalgar Square waiting for the night bus. Bleeeuuurrghhh.[/QUOTE]

That ghastly looking woman sitting next to you on the night bus was probably me!!!

In a similar vein, when we used to go drinking in London, we'd end up back at Romford station after the last train home. Naturally the skin full of beer made one a trifle peckish. There, by the station was a burger van colloquially known (to us at least) as "Satan Burger" because at that time of night with that much alcohol consumed, you would cheerfully give your soul for a dirty cheeseburger. Them were the days.

I can't abide tomato ketchup, mustard of any form of relish so when I have a hotdog, it is in all it's naked glory. Oddly, I don't mind this as I find processed mechanically recovered meat protein rather moreish. Spam, Hot Dogs, Tinned ham. All good. In moderation.

In France they'd be frankfurter sausages in a baguette. Here, Pizza Hut put them in the crust of a pizza which was a bit silly as that's where the extra cheese goes.

It was sausage related.

Now we're on the subject of proper sausages, a Bratwurst mit Senf beats the lot. But I'm pleased to report no "bun".

I assure you that in France no such abomination exists.

Locally we have trucks called "Jonesey's". They sell frozen sausage which I buy. Beats a lips and arseholes hot dog any day. Mine are normally done with Colemans and Encona with the bun toasted.

I prefer sausages, they have more actual meat in them

if you check the nutritional content of a hot dog, they usually have way more fat than protein. Since even pork or beef skin is 50% fat, 50% protein (check the nutrition of pork scratchings), this means that a hot dog is mostly animal fat rather than meat.

I'd rather eat a sausage

I'd rather eat a cheese and tomato sandwich (on baguette or ciabatta)!

Does the butcher on Lakeshore still do hot dogs outside the shop? I remember them well. They were great.
