Bun

A hot dog[1][2] is a dish consisting of a grilled, steamed, or boiled sausage served in the slit of a partially sliced bun.[3]

I don't think most of that is true --

Frozen hot dogs don't come with buns but they're still labeled "hot dogs" - so I don't think the bun is a requirement.

Further, hot dogs don't have to be grilled, steamed, or boiled - in fact, they're pre-cooked and can be eaten out of the package, without any of those types of preparation, whatsoever. 57.135.233.22 (talk) 00:03, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree, in my opinion, without bun it's not "Hot Dog", it's just sausage, nothing else than it only, in fact, every time you see a hot dog, you will see a bun in the ingredients, whenever. 177.105.90.10 (talk) 14:10, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is empirically false. Hereis an example of a product labeled as Hot Dog, which don't include any buns at all. So either the manufacturer is misrepresenting their product, or a Hot Dog doesn't in fact, require a bun to be called a hot dog. 57.135.233.22 (talk) 02:33, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Glizzy

If Tube Steak is okay for an alternative name, Glizzy should be as well. 184.148.58.23 (talk) 14:28, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Texas

"Texas hot dogs are spicy variants found in upstate New York and Pennsylvania (and as "all the way dogs" in New Jersey), but not Texas." Texas absolutely does have chili dogs, they just aren't known as "Texas" hot dogs there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.219.59.82 (talk) 17:59, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
