The red hot dogs found in Maine are about the best.

I have zero interest in fireworks, but I do like some white hots.

Red Hots and White Hots are the two most popular local variations. While Red Hots are "normal" hot dogs, White Hots are plumper. These unique dogs are similar to German bockwurst and were first made[citation needed] by Zweigle's of Rochester. These are often served in a natural casing similar to a sausage. These white hot dogs are sometimes known as coneys. They are also known in the Syracuse area where Heid's of Liverpool is one of the oldest hot dog restaurants in the nation, opened in 1886. Heid's allows only mustard as a topping for their flat-grilled sausages. Products from Syracuse manufacturer Hofmann's Sausage Company are the local favorites in Central New York, with enough customer loyalty to severely hurt Heid's business[13] when a dispute with Hofmann[14] prompted the Heid's franchise to switch to a Buffalo supplier for several years. Unlike Zweigle's white hots, Hoffman's white "snappys" use veal as well as pork. There is also a Red Hot variant served throughout the Adirondacks produced by Glazier Packing Company of Potsdam, that is cased in a red-dyed natural sheep casing. A "Glazier" is typically offered on a menu as an alternative to a regular hot dog, usually for a small additional charge. "Michigans" are hot dogs with a meaty sauce - more like "Sloppy Joe" than chili (no chili-oregano-cumin). The Michigan is served in a buttered-grilled Frankfurt loaf (bun with no crust on the sides). Michigan hot dog

Our grocery store, Wegmans, has a store brand white hot that is a good representive. There is a Coney Island Hots in Scranton that I used to frequent. hmmm... just around the corner from the Fencing Exchange, I'm thinking side trip.

btw on these lovelies no catsup. Stick with mustard, onions, and chile.
