The retailer has teamed up with beverage brand Miracle Seltzer to create a lineup of sparkling waters in four different flavors: lemon lime, green apple, sweet orange and hot dog.

7-Eleven says the hot dog flavor is a twist on one of its most beloved snacks, the Big Bite Hot Dog.

According to a news release, the Big Bite Hot Dog Sparkling Water is a liquified version of the iconic snack – ketchup and mustard flavors included.

    Not who you’re replying to but…I didn’t think I liked hot dogs until I ate a Chicago hot dog and realized it was just the ketchup making it slimy and sweet. Ketchup on hotdogs is nasty lol

      Sweet?!

      So I just had a look into it and apparently American tomato ketchup is one third sugar (corn syrup, obviously…). Ketchup is supposed to be savory, America; why do you do this?

        Well, they also invented the hot dog lol

        I’ve had a lot of different ketchups and don’t really like any of them. The consistency is too slimy for me

          Germany would like a quiet word with you. There’s a reason they’re called weiners and frankfurters.

            Yeah because a German immigrant invented it after moving to New York lol

            I’m not claiming the US invented sausage!

        I think it’s the same here in Canada as I find most regular ketchup (especially Heinz) sickly sweet. I actually buy a no sugar added variant that’s much better to me. It tastes more like tomato-infused vinegar.

          Look in the “ethnic” or “imported” food aisles, the HP sauce in the little glass bottles. If you were a kid in the 80s or 90s, you might well have been raised on English HP, not Canadian. They are similar but not the same at all, it took me back right to grade three when i bought the import accidentally. It’s all white vinegar and orange juice concentrate in the bullshit canadian version, vs malt vinegar and rye flour and fermented fish paste stuff. Anyways, I don;t know why these companies are happy to change a recipe where everyone in the fucking country has it on their table, and then a few years later, like no one buys it anymore and over time we even forget why it was so popular to begin with.

        Yeah no i haven’t ate ketchup in years, or Coke. Coke in particular I remember when they changed the recipe, spring 2016 i opened a new box of coke and “What the fucking hell?” get on google they had switched western canada off beet sugar to HFCS. Have not bought it since. Canada Dry ginger ale is hit and miss now, if I buy bulk in AB at a Walmart it’s usually sickly sweet HFCS but if i buy a 12 pack in Saskatchewan it’s sugar

          It’s almost like heinz now but not. People don’t write scientific articles on why heinz ketchup addicts people anymore.

            I don’t run a Chicago restaurant so I didn’t care enough to convince you but boy are you missing out on a lot of great food

            One slice of deep dish is delicious though. Wouldn’t want any more than that
