But you realize Billy that Chicago hot dogs are the best, so you can't really expect much from a hot dog in Florida

Everyone knows that the best hot dogs are from Rutts Hut in New Jersey.

Rutts Hut is good, but Jimmy Buffs gave me better gas.

What! No dill pickle, no sport peppers, no tomatoes, no celery salt, no sickeningly green relish and amazingly yellow mustard! That may be a hotdog but it's not a Chicago HotDog. Don't forget, this is Head-Fi so there is no such thing as individual preference, I want a DBT taste test!!!

Please don't ban me for uttering the D word

Maybe, instead of a DIY panel discussion we could have DBT taste test of famous hot dogs. Members can bring there favorites.

No offense man, but I don't trust you anywhere near enough to put together a blind taste test involving "hot-dogs" !

You're right. Being a vegetarian, I would be tempted to throw in a tofu dog.

No, it's cool man, we did a DBT for hot dogs this past weekend. Mike blindfolded me and I...... WAIT A MINUTE!

There are some fine tofu dogs out there too. Light Life makes a pretty decent fake sausage and we use Gimmie Lean fake sausage in a lot of our meals. Makes a great baked stuff pepper. Then there's Tofu Pups, but don't microwave.

I was beginning to think that you prefer a real sausage, not that there is anything wrong with that.

And to think there were those that thought all the talk of drinking in the beginning of this thread was going to scare people off from attending. Little did they know...

If I am lucky enough to attend CanJam I will remain quite sober, thankee sir.

I am planning on getting butt naked for the DIY panel though. Not sure why, just seems like a good idea.

I'm really glad I stayed at the hotel. That whole man cave thing....

Gimme Lean is good, but I'm personally fond of Tofurky Italian Sausage and their Beer Brats.

jj, you can get buck naked at the DIY panel if you want. I fully support your freedom of expression. Just be wary of those carrying soldering irons.

Torfurky...OMG! ROTFLMAO and all those other silly acronyms.
