Young people these days! Anything other than mustard is a sin against both God and man.
See! The old generations are keeping us down! Revolution! Destory the facist power structure! Legalise pot!
Ketchup. It's the only way to go.
You can't sin against man, you can only perpetrate evil against him.
Sin is a matter one takes up with one's deity.

:thumb: However, I will make an exception to the kraut if it's a kosher dog with just mustard.
Otherwise, it's usually ketchup and relish (sweet).

SORRY, FOLKS.
the only correct answer is mustard. The arguments should be yellow or brown. to me, that depends on the hotdog. If it;s a quality dog like a Thulmans', yellow is good, but if it's a ballpark, you;d better go brown for the spiciness to overpower the nasty dog taste.
you just never know what tangent a thread will take, do you?

No. The judges say that Led Zeppelin can not be the best rock band of all time because
Stairway to Heaven is so overplayed. Not their fault, but that's showbiz, kid.

ahh 'hem (clears throat). It just so happens that blue grass is the greatest musical genre of all time, and as a born Kentuckian I have a keen ear for the wash board which, alas, has sadly fallen into dire neglect by most blue grass groups today. On the bright side, the Telluride Blue Grass Festival is coming up in June! Anyone who needs directions for driving over Imogene Pass the wrong way on the jeep trail in order to crash the festival is welcome to contact me!:band:
I got a washboard for Xmas from one of my musical cohorts this past year. I'm still trying to find five thimbles big enough for all my fingers.

Damn straight, I'm high! Currently at 6,320 feet elevation. Come June in Telluride I'll be at 8,725 feet. June 17- 20 Telluride offers 3 days and nights of some of the best bluegrass around. Y'all come now, you hear?
http://www.planetbluegrass.com/lowband.shtmlIf it’s just a dog, spicy brown mustard and relish for me.
If it’s a “Bob” dog, it will be prepared as follows:
Fry up one slice of bacon for each dog.
Remove bacon from pan and place on paper towel
Slice dog lengthwise, but not in two pieces – just so it opens up
Fry dog in bacon grease, inside first then the outside.
Place ½ slice of cheese in V of dog & let it melt
Toast bun in toaster
Spread desired amount of Hellmann’s mayonnaise on bun.
Add bacon & cheesy dog.
Gobble, Gobble …
Now that’s how to eat a hot dog.
:rolleyes:
Good God that sounds tasty and I dont even like bacon!

I heard the most amazing bluegrass set on Jools Holland's hootenanny last New Year's eve. Blew me away, what a talented bunch.....damned if can recall their name though
That's a heart attack.
Yum.
Sounds like a Texas (Texas Tommy) hot dog to me...yum!

I'm a mental health professional and I
know. One of my happiest memories of first trip to the US., San Francisco waterfront, hot day, Root Beer (never even heard of back in UK) Hot Dog with mustard and onion & ketchup. drooooldroooollllslurp!
We can't get the right ingredients here and nobody makes them just quite right anyway, and down in my UK county I can't even get Root Beer.
PLEASE Don't ever EVER eat the ones sold to tourists on the streets of London because they are instant SalmonellaSausage laced with BSE, Londoners only warn the people they like!! But do try English Colmans Mustard if you can find it...Pheeeeeeeessshhh its shuddering-good-flame-on beef!!
The only place in England that does a decent Hotdog
( I assume....never tasted the real deal ) is a place on Manchester Victoria trainstation. The guy there does an amazing chillidog

Yes. That's where I met my wife.
3. Are you older than any of your aunts or uncles?
I hope not.
4. Righty or lefty?
Middle.
5. Do you put ketchup or mustard on a hot dog?
Ketchup on one side, mustard on the other, then I throw the thing away and grab a burger.
6. Who is the best rock band of all time?
The Misfits. With the ability to perform songs ranging from "American Nightmare" - an Elvis-type song of a young man so in love with his girl, he buried an ax in her head so no-one else could have her, to the headlong deathcurse of "EARTH A.D.", considered by many to be THE Speed Metal bible, they are the best rock band, in my opinion.
7. Are you older or younger than 30?
Older, but not by much.
8. If a train traveling 45 mph headed west, and 15 minutes later, a train traveling 49 mph follows it, how long until the second train catches the first?
It depends. Will the first train stop for the busload of kindergardeners stalled on the tracks, or just plow its way thru? Or will these trains be going thru a tunnel in North Korea? If it is, the second train will be catching the first one as confetti.
9. Do you consider fish to be meat?
Meat is murder, but fish is justifiable homocide. (And both are delicious.)
10. Do you believe we actually landed on the moon?
Yup, and Starbucks had the astronauts arrested for loitering.

Too late.
That's not bacon, as it could be. It's merely a (possibly tasty) grilled piece of ham. Not the same as bacon.
No.
Is not de facto evidence of bacon in the set boundaries.
Poor evidence shown.
Evidence was consumed without compromise, but does not represent what is generally available.
And all silliness aside, seriously, what is strip bacon?
Streaky bacon I think.
[eta] I currently eat bacon quite often. It's one of those things I go on and off in phases. Always like the taste. Don't much like the texture.
Bacon.
That's what in call streaky bacon.
Sent by thought transference
UK bacon is from the loin up on the back. It's a thin round cutlet.
US bacon is from the belly. It's a strip.
And US bacon is usually cured, which makes it yummy, but horrible for you.
We have smoked, unsmoked, dry-cured etc.
This is the kind of bacon I like.
I see! Yeah, that looks like what we call canadian bacon. Yum in its own right, but not so yum as :bacon: :yum:
Mum loves the hard crispy American style bacon.
When we go to London on Tuesday we're going to an American diner, especially so she can have bacon, pancakes and syrup.
I will be taking the camera.
(bet she has a Full English now...)
American bacon = smoked streaky bacon.
Brit and Canadian Bacon are not the same. Canadian bacon is more like the bastard offspring of bacon and gammon as far as I can tell. But all the Canada I've been to has the same bacon as America. mind you, it's not very far away from here. maybe true Canadian bacon comes from a lot further away.... Or maybe it's like "English" muffins
You're right, Monster, Canadians eat the same bacon we do. That must be because it's superior tasting, as they, like we, have a choice at the store. ;)
oh and Crispy is the norm for American bacon, whereas -probably because it's more meaty- British "middle" or "back" bacon is served less well done. But they probably changed that since I left too. Wouldn't be surprised to find they moved the country.
Way back when I lived there, I liked back bacon cooked just like dana shows and thought streaky and/or smoked bacon the work of the devil.
Canadians are mad at Americans for calling a round piece of ham "Canadian" bacon. And also because we tell them they didn't breed behavior out of cats.
These days most eateries grill or griddle their bacon - to make it *cough* healthy - yah. Basically means it comes out looking uncooked with translucent, soft rind. I always ask for mine to be well done. And at home I fry the everloving shit out of it, so the rind is crisp and golden.
Helpful Hint (formerly known as Polly's Pointers):
Streaky bacon ;) cooks up great on some paper towels on a plate in the microwave.

always done mine under the grill/broiler. you can brown up the fat/rind just fine.... if you want to :D
Yup, bacon has always been grilled in this house and it's never looked as flabby as some of the sad things I've been offered.
I'm not saying it looks like the American versions of bacon, but I am saying that Mum will not order bacon in or on anything in this country unless she's seen and approved of it on someone else's plate. And I worked with a girl who used to buy a bacon roll, remove the bacon and dissect it, then put it back in the roll again. Which I found funny at the time (I called it her jigsaw breakfast) but she would not eat the undercooked rind and fat.
Sorry, not doing anything to dispel the myth that Brits serve lousy food.
I just hope that the Americans on here are as kind about the British in conversation as I am about them. I'm a one-woman pro-Merkin cheerleader.
