I just had a couple of hot dogs for lunch, with hot
mustard & cold sauerkraut.

My compliments for correctly spelling 'wiener' --
'i' before 'e', as in 'Vienna'.

cheers,
Tom

Why would you ruin the flavor of hot dogs by putting all sorts of
garbage on them?

"Vee-enn-uh", "Wee-enn-err"?

I before E [except after C, etc] is an english rule; I'm pretty sure
"weiner" is german-derived, where I think E before I is common.

I'm probably wrong. I just did a little googling and now believe
that you are correct. I will, however, continue to be wrong. So
there!

I ought to go eat a hot dog. Or, a weiner -- two entirely different
foods, similar in appearance and construction, but dissimilar in
ingredients (AFAIK) and served differently.

"New York System Hot Weiners" apparently only exist in Rhode Island.
They are yummy, and most definitely not hot dogs. They are often
served loaded with toppings, although I don't know what they all
are, since I tend to get them plain, or with "meat sauce", a ground
meat product of unknown origin which is very different from one
weiner joint to the next.

If you can tolerate the awful fake typed approximation of a
stereotypical overblown accent, here's some RI-only foods:

Oscar Mayer weiners are hot dogs.

Coney Island weiners are icky.
