Trivia

The world’s longest hot dog, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, was 65.6 feet.

The Vienna Beef hot dog was introduced at the Chicago's Columbian Exposition.

Most agree that the hamburger was introduced to America at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair by Fletcher Davis of East Texas, though many disagree about where and when it was invented. He told a reporter that he learned to cook his potatoes in Paris, Texas, and some think that’s when America started calling the treat "french fries."

Think about it: Just as there are no dogs in hot dogs, there is no ham in a hamburger.

We at Vienna Beef believe that Chicago is home to America’s tastiest hot dogs, but the Second City is actually fourth in hot dog sales, according to 2004 statistics. Los Angeles sells more hot dogs than any town, followed by New York City and the San Antonio area.

In Toronto, hot dogs are the only street food allowed under the law.

Mickey Mouse’s first spoken line in an animated cartoon is said to have been, "Hot dogs!"
