Never Put Ketchup on a Hot Dog- UPDATED VERSION

The book looks like a hot dog stand and follows the people and places behind the Chicago hot dog phenom. Great color, pictures, anecdotes and stories.

I haven't read this book, but I do agree with the title. Never put ketchup on a hot dog. It's not just wrong. It's against the law.

This is a fun book any native Chicagoan will love it. It brought back many great childhood memories of my favorite hot dog stands.

This is a very interesting book filled with information about the Chicago hot dog industry. It has a detailed history of many past and present famous hot dog stands and restaurants, mainly in the Chicago area. I liked it! AAA+++

I just received my copy of this book. It is wonderful. I love Hot Dogs and this book has me convinced that I need a road trip real soon. The story and pictures are great. I need a Vienna Beef Hot Dog This Week! Run to your computer and add this to your library!

I am sitting at the computer at a safe time to read Bob Schwartz's book, Never Put Ketchup on a Hot Dog. If it gets too close to lunch time, I will have to turn the book over so my hot dog cravings don't start. The picture on the cover of that delicious poppy seed bun cradling the dressed dog is too enticing. Living in the Bay Area is disheartening at certain times and looking for a decent dog is one of those times. When we travel we search out the yellow and red Vienna sign with hope and trepidation. Will they have the proper relish in Lake Lure; will they have the right pickles in Orlando? The book does a great job in putting together passionate creativity, artistic coherence, and nostalgic information. Now where is my next fix, er, hot dog coming from?
