Marathon Weekend 2019

As a Cleveland fan and Hot Dog Truther it pains me so much to see them legitimize ketchup as a hot dog condiment in such fashion every time I'm at a game. I've got nothing against ketchup, but it belongs on a hot dog the same way sardines and Skittles belong on a hot dog.

Dude, that’s messed up. Hot dogs and ketchup are a savory partner combination on the order of chocolate and peanut butter. Hot dog, bun, ketchup and chopped onions.

I’m afraid you’re going to pop off with more nonsense now like “beer and cilantro are good”!
 

This is only tangentially related, but ... I used to put mustard on my pasta.
Phew, I got that out.

I don't do it anymore. Mostly because I rarely eat pasta these days.

I still put mustard on my hot dogs, though.

Oh, and I don't eat mayo.
 
I'm really enjoying this hot dog talk (also, hot dogs with spicy mustard and avocado are my JAM. Don't knock it till you've tried it).

Officially in for Marathon weekend! Booked a Boulder Ridge Villa and now just have to decide about races. DH and I are leaning towards Dopey (he's done Goofy, I've done the full). Our rationalization is that we are pushing 40 and things hurt more than they used to and if we don't do it now, we may never do it!!
 
Running Thread......discussion of pancakes, cereal and other assorted foods
Marathon Thread......discussion of hot dog condiments

Is anyone running anymore? (I'm fighting another chest cold/crud attack and being bad on getting off my butt out the door)

And for the record.....grilled/charred with mustard/relish. And preferably with a top split Boston-style bun.

1. Duke's Mayo is the call. I used to be a Hellman's man, but Duke's is the Transformers to Hellman's GoBots.

2. Different mustards for different needs. Hot dogs? Straight yellow. Cold cuts? Spicy Brown. And you know who has good brown mustard? White Castle. You can buy it by the bottle, and it's stellar. I also put mustard on chili cheese fries(this comes from eating at Tommy's back when I lived in L.A.).

3. Something I've always wanted to try on a hot dog....cream cheese. Saw a Travel Channel special on Denver once, and they showed a hot dog joint that put cream cheese on it. I considered moving to Denver for that sole reason, but thought it would just be cheaper/easier to buy cream cheese instead.

4. Pimento cheese on everything. Because Kentucky.

Not me :( I'm in an ankle brace for tendinitis. But my 2 weeks ends this Friday and I'm hopeful that I might be able to go for a short run this weekend.
 
I'm all for getting the discussion back on track. Sorry I derailed with the hot dog condiment talk. :stir:

One final thought for those over the age of twelve who insist on putting ketchup on hot dogs (and, yes, I'm 99.9% just having fun with all of this; people can like and combine whatever food they want):

When you go to Chicago, the hot dog places don't even have ketchup. They will laugh if you ask for it.

I don't think I've put ketchup on my hot dogs since I was like 12 haha.
