Spring loaded tongs have sharp edges that can cut fingers and eventually loose their tension.

Or Sam Hurd. Instead of sprinkling celery salt on top, he would have used cocaine and sold the dogs by the ounce.

Sorry. Too easy.

Dan Council, a Hot Dog University grad, took the leap of faith from part time to full time mobile food service vendor. We all know that ketchup is not applied to a Chicago style dog, however, the reporter decided to apply it as the first condiment. http://www.wiscnews.com/saukprairieeagl ... 3ce6c.html
