Wednesday, July 22 is National Hot Dog Day.
Philly Pretzel Factory will sell its pretzel dogs for just $1 in observance of the day.
According to nationalday.com says, “While we cannot be completely sure how or even when National Hot Dog Day was created, we do know that the day was created as a nod to National Hot Dog Month in July by the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council to highlight this fan favorite.
Hot dogs became a household name in the late 19th century when casual food lover and baseball team owner of the St. Louis Browns — better known to some as the St. Louis Cardinals — Chris Von de Ahe brought the two together at his own amusement park.”
According to the Philly Preztel Factory, its pretzel dog “is made up of the beloved Philly Pretzel, wrapped around Dietz & Watson’s premium all-beef hot dog covered in American cheese. And, like all Philly Pretzel Factory products, pretzel dogs are made fresh throughout the day.”
Locations in airports, train stations and entertainment venues are excluded because most are closed because of the coronavirus.
