Only in America...

...do we honor processed meat. For those of you not up to snuff on your obscure holidays, today is National Hot Dog Day. Boo-ya!





In a city saturated and obsessed with locally grown/organic/free-range/grass fed/all natural foods, it's refreshing to know that some people still make a living pushing $1.50 dogs to both famished tourists and business people. Referred to as "dirty water dogs" growing up (have you seen what they swim in?), I'm a fan - no - a supporter of National Hot Dog Day. Two of these juicy American traditions served as a satisfying lunch.
