Hate me all you want! I do not care. I like ketchup on my hotdogs!!!!
I like mustard for certain uses. I mustard with cheese and crackers.
If I eat some sort of sausage that is not on a bun, just on the plate,
I like to cut off pieced and dip them in mustard. But once you put it
on a bun then no mustard, just ketchup or something.

I always buy Hebrew National. In fact I'm having some tonight for
dinner. I bought the bratwurst rather than the plain hotdogs because
the regular hotdogs are too skinny and they come in an odd number. The
bratwurst has 4 nice fat sausages in a package so I bought 2 packages
and one package of 8 rolls. I like when it comes out even. I think
they should enact a law that hotdogs and buns should come in equal
quantities!!!!!

Yeah, but they don't taste the same on a hamburger bun. I've tried it.
They only taste right on a good hotdog bun. I just don't pull the bun
apart too far - just barely enough to get the dog in and then pile the
toppings on top. If you get good bakery buns that aren't already cut
then you can control how deep a cut you make.
