The 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.
