because that's a hotdog! not some bullshit fancy crap! Fusion or whathave you has its place, but this push to try and fancify simple, blue color foods that are outright perfect because of what they are is obnoxious.
It started with that Wolfgang Puck asshole, that started trying to make pizza into something fancy. Every where I go down here, it's potatos and avocado on my pizza. what is that noise?
Don't get me wrong, I like fine foods, but I feel that the push to "improve" something that is already perfect in its simplicity, by making it fancy (wagyu beef hotdog?) is anathema to that dish. It is pointless. Just call it something else. Maybe the hipsters won't like it as much, but wgaf?
There are so many sausages around, seems triple figures. Hot dogs of all stripes, German wursts. I'll take a good wurst over most crappy American hot dogs any day. Saags is god-like, period.
I really like some hot dogs, but TBH I haven't bought a hot dog in years, certainly not a package of hotdogs to bring home in over 15 years. I can't justify the well-over-50% fat content, usually over 70%, IIRC.
Now PIZZA! My GF used to drag me to a little restaurant that made unusual pizzas, and I must say, they were generally great. They had a new one each day. Of course, the lesson is that a pizza can be damn near anything you can dream up put on a leavened wheat crust of some kind and fired in a super hot oven. Italian sauce is optional, but when I make a pizza I almost always use my DIY Italian sauce from my home grown tomatoes.
You don't have to load a DIY pizza with a ton of stuff. Too many things can obscure the wonder of the toppings. Sometimes less is more.
