Being the parent of a toddler, this big news flash certainly caught my attention,
"Pediatricians Want Redesign of Hot Dogs, Candy to Curb Kids' Choking". Great idea, it's really hard to cut up a steaming hot dog easily, and not giving in and buying some weird As Seen On TV hot dog dicer. As my Mama Bear Protector Genes go, someone finally figured out how dangerous these meat tubes really are. As a foodie who has specific tastes and preferences on how hot dogs should be prepared and condimentized, this is almost as unsettling as having Scott Brown elected to the Senate. New territory, could be bad, could be good, it certainly ain't like the Old Standard we've had for years.
The glorious social networking site allowed one of my super-talented designer friends to find
this article from Fast Company, and how they approached the challenge of hot dog design. I share this here, friends, as they put great care into the inside/outside ratio of a hot dog.
I find this debate far more interesting than politics, at least for now. I sense major backlash in the world!

When they start making hot dogs in string-cheese form, I may stop being a (semi) vegetarian.
