BTW, there are a lot of hot sauces with Hell and Devil in their names, so I'm sure everyone is used to it. I'd be much more worried about infringement, although the term "Devil Dog" goes back to WWI Marines, and noone is going to confuse a hot dog with a snack cake.

There's devil food's cake, deviled ham, etc.

As you said, the term "Devil Dogs" is pretty old. I genuinely don't think I'd be infringing on Drakes if I used the name to sell hot dogs rather than snack cakes. Though if it would make them feel better, I'd sell their cakes too.

If it turns out it does infringe on their name, I can change mine to "Red Hot Devil Dogs" or "Devil Dog Red Hots".
