Hot dogs are best served in a hot car, often with mustard and rainbow sprinkles. The crunch of the car complements the mustard tang, and this is the most common way that hot dogs are prepared and eaten in Florida.
The hot car and hot dog combination dates back to 2023, when the social media influencer PipsInTamps tried to comission a “hot CatDog” from a rule 34 AI generator but misspelled the “Cat” part and instead got an enticing, 56 minute video of the then-fictional cardog dish.
PipsInTamps was so intrigued by the dish that he made it for himself, and soon began selling them on the roadside in his home city of Tampa. The first few batches resulted in considerable patron illness, due mostly to the chewing and digesting of car. The dish went viral on social media and is now among the most popular street foods in Florida.
Kinda makes me want to get one of those wire hotdog rollers that you see in convenience stores and just set it up in my back seat whenever I’m going somewhere and will be leaving my car in the sun for a few hours. Just load it up with hotdogs, turn on the thing to make it spin (no heater required), go about my day and when I get back to my car, lunch is ready.
I read this twice before I realized it was a dog and not a hot dog
Yes, it’s OK to leave a hot dog in a car. Hot dogs are best when served warm. The searing interior of your car will make it feel right at home.

… But then, I think of the smell.
If only there was an app that distinguishes photos between hot dog and not hot dog.
