Hot Diggity Dog: The History of the Hot Dog
Adrienne Sylver
|
|
|
Did you know that if you took all the hot dogs that Americans eat just during the month of July and laid them end to end, they would circle the earth seven times!?!
If you are really into this no fuss kid's food, you'll just love this hilarious picture book full of digestible bites of wiener history and fun frank facts.
Whether you are siding with the folks who claim wieners got their start in Vienna, Austria, or the
|
people who are convinced that the frank came from Frankfurt, Germany, you might be surprised to learn it actually got its start more than five hundred years ago as a Roman sausage. Of course, it was the Americans in the nineteenth century that added the bun and started to sell them from cute umbrella-topped hot dog carts.
Find out how the tubular treat went from hobo franks and beans to the King of England's elegant table to an astronaut meal on Apollo11.
