Y'll are spelling hot dog wrong. I think you meant to spell it bratwurst. 

And ketchup belongs on nothing. Properly prepared food doesn't need it and improperly prepared food should not be eaten.

I'm not convinced about this. Meth may actually be better for you. It just doesn't taste as good.

OMBG.  Don't even get me started on the vile substance known as Miracle Whip.

Miracle Whip has its place. Usually in the very back of the fridge so I don't have to move it to get to the mayo.

I like ketchup and onion on my dogs, but I find a good hot dog needs nothing but a good bun. And whoever invented these top sliced buns was an shiny happy person.

They NEVER work like that, just make a big mess or tear apart.

Wow, I never have trouble with top-sliced buns. They're awesome. The problem is with slide-sliced buns, because by side sliced what they usually mean is 3/16" up from the bottom and 1-1/2" down from the top. So they have effectively failed by the time you even put the dog in the bun, and the only thing holding them together is the moisture on the outside of the dog. 
 

No hot link (see what I did there) because phone.

I'm not going to touch the ketchup argument- you guys can hash that out among yourselves.

I am a mustard-onion-kraut on a hot dog guy myself. The real argument is that yellow mustard isn't really mustard. It is turmeric and vinegar.

Real mustard isn't yellow, and has a texture beyond "squirty."

Ketchup isn't the problem.  Yellow ketchup, what some people mistakenly call mustard, is a problem.   It has not bite or real flavour (note the U for spelling accuracy devil) beyond vinegar.  IT's OK on hot dogs, with mustard, relish and onions of course, but it certainly isn't anything that should be allowed to call itself mustard.

 

This is what I grew up with and it would take yellow ketchup out behind the bike sheds and teach it what mustard is really all about.

My wife grew up in Rouse's Point up near the Canadian border, you can get Michigans everywhere!  Even places that don't have a food license (like a dive bar) sells them.  When I first started going there it was $1 for a Michegan and $1 for a quart of Molson.

After 40 years with the program, her 90+ year old mother gave me the recipe.  It's Thyme that gives the special flavor.

ALWAYS with mustard and raw onions.

We have Coney Dogs here in T Bay. Very similar, but I expect the sauce (we don't call it chili here) isn't quite the same. There are a number of places here which sell them, but this was where I had my first Coney dog. I'm not sure why they still call it a confectionary after all these decades. It's most definitely a restaurant with a very limited menu.

Poutine is the opposite of Chinese food. You may not be stuffed when you're done, but you won't want to eat again for a week.

It is also a key to surviving a Quebec winter.

No.  Eggs are the one place that Ketchup does not belong.  You are wrong.

Hot dogs are improved with Ketchup, because they taste less like a hot dog then.

You Ketchup Guys must have been in the Army.  My step-son is retired Army and I think he puts ketchup on his oatmeal...

I've given up on pre sliced buns altogether to be honest with you, because they're always ducked up. I get torpedo rolls and cut them myself, so when they're broken I only have myself to blame.

I eat my hot dogs with only these two things added.  I placed a hot dog order at a diner once and as the waitress was writing down the order, without looking up, she said in a semi-exasperated tone, "You're not from around here, are you."

 

This guy eats hot dogs with tartar sauce. I'm calling the police.

I was introduced to this stuff at an Irish pub. Amazing stuff, love it. I've seriously considered ordering it on Amazon.
