Bacon-wrapped frank. Pinto beans. Grilled onions and peppers. Fresh tomatoes. Relish. Mayo. Mustard. Shredded cheese.



This is not a snack. This is a commitment.

Name a more iconic duo. We'll wait. ⚾🌭



Hot dogs were first served at baseball parks in 1893 β€” the same year they were a sensation at the Chicago World's Fair.



Today, MLB fans eat nearly 20 million hot dogs every season. Some traditions just stick.

Did you know? America’s hot dog story starts in 1871, when Charles Feltman opened the first Coney Island hot dog stand β€” selling 3,684 frankfurters in a milk roll in his very first year.

By 1893, they were featured on the menu at the Chicago World's Fair AND baseball parks.

That's not just food history. That's American history.
