My summer diet is Hot Dogs and Popcorn. November 19, 2009

Here's the down side of my job, during the summer my dinner is 8 out of 10 hot dogs with a side of popcorn.


So I've become a bit a snob about both of them. I like my hot dogs with mustard, ketchup, relish, bit of salt and pepper and onions. Then you put a slice of pickle on top. Don't like brats, too much going on with brats. First they are two big, and the squirt when you bit into one! What's up with that? Gross! They are hard to eat 'cause the skin doesn't come off easy- you got to work on the thing.

I've taken to eating just the dog, or at least half the bun. If I'm sitting and have a proper fork-not plastic, cause let's be honest- the only thing those things can cut is hot water-I'll eat it with a fork. Like how they do it in Nantucket I imagine. Elitists! That way I can enjoy the toppings, and not the bun.

The bun is the worst part of the hot dog, it's totally conveinent, but it fills you up too quick and loaded with all those complex carbohydrates what-nots.........

Getting your hot dog at a party is a lot like FIGHT CLUB. First if your hot dog sucks "YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT SUCKY HOT DOGS!" the second rule is "YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT SUCKY HOT DOGS!", 'cause you will just sound like that guy who eats hot dogs in Nantucket. Lastly if you are a guest you have to eat the hot dog. So I always eat the first one whole, then I take the second and hide in a corner like a leper so no one will see my elitist eating habits.corn

Popcorn; hands down Caramel Corn. It's the Cadilacs of popcorn. Kettle Corn is the Lexus, or possibly the VW-whatever is the next step down from the Cadilac. Regualr Pop Corn is a Hyundai. Cheese Popcorn is a total pain in the ass as is all other flavors of popcorn. Worst flavor popcorn: pineapple.

Here's a tip if you want to eat Pineapple flavored popcorn: Eat popcorn with pineapple on the side. Mashing them up is like wearing socks with sandals.
