National Hot Dog Day/National Take A Walk In The Park Day

Happy National Hot Dog Day! 

Hot dogs are “sausage served in a sliced bun. It is often garnished with mustard, ketchup, onions, mayonnaise, relish, cheese, chili and/or sauerkraut.” The origins of the hot dog are unclear, stating anywhere from Germany to the US. They are usually made from meaty leftovers and fat, along with some spices and lots of sodium fro preservation.

In 2012, Capitol Dawg, in California, set the Guinness World Record for most expensive hot dog. This luxurious dog costs a mere $145.49 USD! Eat up!

Think hot dogs aren’t enough for today? Well, today is also National Take A Walk In the Park Day! It’s Easter Weekend. Gather the family, and get out and enjoy your local park! Play Frisbee, catch or tag! Take advantage of whatever green space is available in your neighbourhood!
