Where did the dish known as ‘shawarma’ originate?
Did you know that the beloved hot dog has its origins in 19th-century Germany, where it was known as the “dachshund sausage” or “Frankfurter”?
German immigrants brought these tasty sausages to the United States, and they quickly gained popularity, particularly in cities like New York.
Street vendors began selling them at events, often using a bun to make them more convenient for on-the-go eating.
The popularity of hot dogs soared after they were sold at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago and later at baseball games, making them a quintessential American street food.
This simple yet delicious meal has since become iconic, with regional variations and toppings contributing to its enduring global appeal.
