The all beef hot dog
from QuikTrip can trace its history back to the Tutankhamen Dynasty
of ancient Egypt and may in fact be the precursor to modern
civilization. Archeologists have found hieroglyphic
markings of hot dogs on the Rosetta Stone which translate to,
"nourishment for the long journey to Carthage." It has even
been theorized that a monument to the hot dog lay at the feet of the
Sphinx but eroded some time soon after the nose. Later, the
Romans adopted the hot dog and began steaming buns for added flavor.
They believed this method to be a gift from their god
Oscmayerus, the god of the walk-in-pantry. New evidence
suggests that hot dogs were originally brought to the New World by
Juan Pizarro, who traded a dozen of them for the Yucatan
Peninsula.
Okay, while there's really nothing historical
about QuikTrip's plump, juicy all beef hot dogs, they will change
the way you look at a quick, easy meal.
