National Hot Dog Day is Completely Unnecessary

July 22nd is National Hot Dog Day. Research suggests that hot dogs are the blandest, most lackluster food there is. No one even eats plain hot dogs because they are terrible. The hot dog’s flavor must be masked by ketchup, mustard, relish, onion, cheese, chili, or basically anything that can cover up the hot dog flavor.

Weinerschnitzel and Pink’s are two restaurants that have tried to turn hot dogs into a trendy, sought after food. Research disagrees. No one even knows what hot dogs are made of. It’s an undesirable cut of meat from a cow, chicken, pig, horse, who knows and who cares. The meat is then ground to make it completely unidentifiable. The meat goop is shoved into a thin skin and then delivered straight into your mouth.

National Hot Dog Day is a joke. Please do not make any hot dog posts today.

What If We Rename The Holiday Happy Unidentified Meat Day?

Some enthusiasts don’t want to abandon the holiday altogether. Despite hotdogs being an unnerving abomination, the spirit of the holiday is beloved. If hotdogs were most honest with themselves, then the holiday would be much less harmful. We propose that National Hotdog Day changes its name to National Unidentified Meat Day. Unidentified meats are sketchy, but at least they are an honest name. People could come from around the world and showcase their unidentified meats. Perhaps even a festival or fair could be thrown in celebration of the unidentified meats. Some people may even discover their new favorite type of meat at an event like this. Unfortunately it would be hard to find that meat again, as it will remain unidentified forever. We thing this idea is a great middle ground. What do you think?

Let us know in the comments if you would appreciate a name change, but be sure not to post about National Hotdog Day in the mean time.
