Good grief that link is a long list of gatekeeping BS for frikkin’ hotdogs. I hate ketchup on a hotdog, but it doesn’t bother me if someone else likes it. Why try to boss the world? Let people enjoy things.
After you take another country’s food and put it on plain bread, you must create many arbitrary rules for serving and eating. Otherwise someone else could add one more element and make it their own national dish instead.

People are bored and need something to feel special about.
That’s most of what we’re doing on this planet.
“Look at me! I’m a conquer!”
“Look at me! I don’t eat ketchup on my hotdog!”
“Look at me! I swear I’m just a little bit special!”
