So, it seems a guy in Vancouver B.C has come up with the most expensive hotdog on the planet. Apparently, this thing is soaked in century old cognac, and is called the Dragon Dog. It leaves it's nearest competitor, the Haute Dog from New York looking like a reject from a 7-11 counter top wiener warmer. At least price wise. This Dragon Dog is topped with Kobe beef seared in olive and truffle oil, fresh lobster and a picante sauce. The Haute Dog in New York will run you $69 bucks. The Dragon Dog will cost $100. Yup! A C-note. For a fucking foot long hotdog. At least after you eat one, you can honestly say you've had a Guinness World Record, cause at 100 beans, that's just what it is.
Shit, for that price, you could almost buy 4 two-foot-long, gourmet hot dogs at the Texas Rangers ballpark. Each of those suckers is 2 pounds and comes with shredded cheese, chili and sauteed onions, and could feed a family of 3 or 4.
Or, you could simply go to your favorite grocery store, pick up a 12 pack of weenies for about 6 bucks, a dozen buns for about 3 and simply make your own.
And if you're wondering if I'd put ketchup on the Dragon Dog, the answer is HELL YES! I'd even put mustard on that bastard. Grey Poupon Dijon, of course.
'Nuff said.
Welcome! I hope you enjoy, and are maybe infuriated by, my somewhat irreverent take on world news and events, and the people who make and shape them. I hope we can share a laugh, and maybe provoke a thought, about what's happening "out there".
