I already don't approve but admit I'm curious.
Talk about good karma. I love that idea. Except for the Gene and Jude's part as I am not really a fan. But I've taken friends to Paradise Pup on the way to O'Hare which was a win-win for everyone. Maybe next time I fly I'll contact your friend. And he'll like the timing since I try not to fly in the morning.Cathy2 wrote:"In the neighborhood..."
I have a friend in Lake Forest who will gladly give anyone a drive to O'Hare, because his ritual includes a stop at Gene and Jude's.
It is all about Gene and Jude's for him.
Regards,

Lucky Dog kicks the casing off of Tasty Dog. I loathe the Lake Street Tasty Dog in Oak Park. Loathe.

This may be a moment when I learn something. I know that Kosher Zion was a subsidiary of David Berg, and then Vienna Beef bought David Berg, but Red Hot Chicago descended from S. Ladany & Sons - did Vienna Beef obtain it also? If so, when?ld111134 wrote: What are the differences between the Vienna Beef, David Berg and Red Hot Chicago frankfurters, given that they are all manufactured by the same company?

Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman wrote:Vienna Beef was founded as the Vienna Sausage Manufacturing Company after Austro–Hungarian immigrants Emil Reichel and Samuel Ladany sold sausages made from their family recipe at the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago. Vienna Beef claims to have used the same sausage recipes for the last 118 years. Vienna Beef asserts that its recipes are trade secrets that it has taken great effort to divulge to the fewest number of people possible. Defendant Scott Ladany is the grandson of Vienna Beef founder Samuel Ladany. Scott Ladany began working for the company in 1971 and obtained a 10% stock interest. The Ladany family sold the company in the early 1980s to plaintiff Vienna Beef. In 1983, Ladany left Vienna Beef and sold all of his stock. When Ladany left Vienna Beef, he signed a non-compete agreement that also contained a confidentiality clause with regards to Vienna Beef's trade secret recipes. In 1986, at the end of the non-compete term Ladany started Red Hot Chicago to make hotdogs and other sausages. Scott Ladany's son, Bill, joined RHC in 2003.
The August 16, 2021 issue of The New Yorker has a cartoon (page 24 in the print edition) of two Godzilla-like creatures standing amid a burning Chicago. One is pouring ketchup on a hot dog
