Why are hot dogs called hot dogs?
1
Answer
In the mid-19th century, German immigrant butchers in the United States began selling variations of sausages, some of which were thin and long, like the dog breed dachshund. They called these dachshund sausages. Over time, the phrase may have been changed into “hot dog.”
