It was inevitable. We should have seen it coming. A Florida marketing genius and an Illinois company have teamed up to bring us Carlos Danger brand weiners. 100% beef, but I found no indication on the company's website that they're kosher. Carlos Danger claims that they're roughly twice as big as the average weiner!
Frankfurterly, my dear, he doesn't give a damn.

I'm sure someone will relish these, but for me, they don't really cut the mustard.

My high school German is making me pronounce his name to rhyme with diner. Then I think of Bob & Debbie Whiner.

They better watch out; Weiner might kick their buns.

I wonder if they paid him for rights to the name?

Exactly the image I want in my head when I eat a hot dog.

Hot dogs, in general, are gross enough without having to further associate them with a specific politician's penis.
That said, I occasionally get a hankering for a nice big Hebrew National.
But I still don't want to think about penis when I eat one.

Is it too late to trademark a line of Ron Mexico...I don't know, tacos or something?

Film pitch: a Ron Mexico/Carlos Danger buddy action movie. Tell me you wouldn't go see that.

Can I get these without the side order of Huma? A soggy wet bun stuck to the side of a weiner doesn't do much for me. I like my bread to have a bit of dignity.

Like politics, you probably don't want to know how this was made.

They're twice the size if you combine four of them. Oh!

Anthony Weiner has lost his pen. Does anyone know where Anthony Weiner's pen is?

The novelty is that you walk up and order the hot dog with ketchup and they take a picture of it and text it to you.

From the link: Always use a leather weiner holder, which ensures you will get the very most out of your weiner experience.
Seems like a holder might take care of some of the soggy, so with great trepidation, I googled "leather weiner holder".
Oddly enough, it wasn't rewarding.

still some left...
Weiners never quit.
Don't knock wurst.
And I'm being totally frank.
Is it chili here or is it me?
Let's not talk about the German politician who became a sour kraut.
And where does Oscar Mayer fit into all this?
