Hot Dogs Weren’t American First (Food Lore)

That classic American hot dog you love? Yeah… it’s not actually American. 🌭
It started in Germany as the dachshund sausage — brought to the U.S. by immigrants in the 1800s. These sausages were delicious, but too hot to hold. So street vendors began serving them in soft milk rolls, creating the bun we know today. 🥖

Then came a funny twist: a newspaper cartoonist couldn’t spell “dachshund,” so he just wrote “hot dog” instead — and the name stuck. 😂
