I like cornbread and I like hot dogs, so why I have I never liked corn dogs?
It’s the breadluminati. They are everywhere.
Perhaps if you’ve only ever eaten corn dogs…
If that was the case, you’d probably be under 25, dead, or both, though 🤷
Or Uhmerican
Not necessarily. Lots of American restaurants make this into a staple of sorts. As for myself, I’ve never had corn dogs but I’ve had wellington
Yeah, the corn dog got shafted by the machine
Pigs in Blankets are this (pork sausage wrapped in bacon):
What you’re describing is a sausage roll (pork sausage wrapped in pastry):
I’m all for American versions of things, but please get these staples of British cuisine right.

Kind of ironic this is where you’re making a stand.
The first known use of the recipe for pig in a blanket, the American cuisine, was in 1940 by the US military.
The first known use of the recipe for pigs in blankets, the British cuisine, was in 1957 and was inspired by British soldiers who tried the American version during WWII.
But the American monstrosity is a rip-off of sausage rolls, which originated centuries ago. They gave a name to something that they should have known to already exist. Frankly, I’m all for revoking America’s independence and returning them to secondary colony status over this…
And the one in the photo is a beef wellington.
Are the UK pigs are always wrapped in bacon? In the states the “blanket” is far more commonly some sort of bread, like puff pastry.
The states are wrong. That’s a sausage roll, and it’s been a sausage roll for decades. The whole “pig in a blanket” thing is a new thing from people that basically reinvented the sausage roll and didn’t have the sense to check if it already existed.
I’m not exaggerating when I say that wars were started over less, and Australia and the UK would probably happily have their finger on the nuclear button if America doesn’t come to its senses and just embrace the correct food names…
Extremely cheap, fast food that’s greasy as fuck, has barely any nutritional value, and so convenient that you can just eat it out of the bag - sounds like an American dream.
I’ve found American food is generally less liquidy grease than british food. Americans don’t want fried chicken dripping in grease, they want it dried then covered in various sauces. Also places like golden corral and cracker barrel already exist and are kinda dying
No idea why this is downvoted, America does love a condiment. Thankfully, sausage rolls are extremely dippable, and some people do decide to dunk them in all sorts. It’s not something I’d do, but I’d tolerate it.
Sausage roll does not apply since hot dogs are not sausages. And I love sausage rolls.
No, corn dogs are just wellingtons.
Everything is either a soup, a sandwich, or a wellington.
Steak?
That’s salad to you.
Steak is an ingredient. When you plate it with steak sauce, it becomes a soup.
Without sauce. Just steak. With dry seasoning
Pizza?
Open-face sandwich
I posit that a sandwich is just a really badly made wellington.
Or a wellington is just sandwich that is sealed in
Yeah Wellington is a sandwich. So are hotdogs and hamburgers (when sandwiched between bread). Wellingtons as just meat uncrustables (RIP).
Nobody ever put mushroom duxelles in my corndogs. I feel cheated.
Send this shit to gordon
Inb4: today I’ll show you how to cook a corn dog from this premium Iberico pork…
Corn dogs are battered though. A beef wellington is actually a posh sausage roll.
Or a Texan Kolache.
sausage rolls are posh french hot dogs
That thing on the right, isn’t a Fletchers so it’s disqualified as a corn dog.
It’s also a Korean street dog. You would never find that at your local Weinerschnitzel.
If you make the Good Mythical Kitchen 7-11 beef Wellington: It’s the exact same socioeconomic background as the corn dog.
I mean depends on the dog really, some good ones can have pork mixed in too.
I only knew the old european variant with sirloin.

According to the cube rule, these are both Calzones.
Therefore they are soup.
Yeah. Everything is soup with a good enough blender.
I acknowledge the art and tradition of good rare meat, but that’s fucking raw don’t eat that.
That’s called rare in Britain and it’s safe to eat. Raw is safe too. Also raw pork and venison is safe. As well as eggs and milk. High food quality standards we have.
For beef you’re generally fine if you kill surface germs. You can serve steaks rare because it’s not really a risk.
Ground beef is not because the surface germs get mixed in.
For beef and everything else I’m fine either way. Otherwise how would I make tartare, carpaccio and mett?
You wouldn’t.
Beef isn’t too bad to be eaten raw, but pork has bacteria and parasites that are much more dangerous to humans. That’s why some religions ban eating pork. It keeps their followers alive.
What do you mean I wouldn’t? I eat raw pork regularly. Just like everybody else in Europe.
25% of the world’s population has toxoplasmosis. The main distribution vector is cats. That’s why we all love cats!
Some people in Germany regularly eat raw pork. The rest of Europe cook their pork thoroughly.
I had raw pork in Italy, UK and Spain.
We eat raw ground pork and pork/beef mix in Germany (called Mett), and ground pork is also eaten in France (Tartar)
There are ways to handle and prepare most meats so that they’re reasonably safe. And even the “safe temperature” people generally see are the instantaneous temperature (if they hit that, the most common sources of food borne illness they carry are dead), but you can achieve the same results if you can keep the internal temperature at a lower temperature for longer.
The guidelines for cooking are assuming some potential for exposure to contamination somewhere in the process.
