Hot dog

A hot dog is the term for either a type of sausage or, alternatively, a sandwich with the bun and sausage. Hot Dogs are also called frankfurters, frankfurts, or franks, after the city of Frankfurt, Germany, a wiener, after the city of Vienna, Austria, or sarcastically as tube steaks, illustrating that hot dogs are typically among the cheapest meat products one can obtain.
