My Guilty Pleasure: Costco Hot Dogs
The CostCo dogs are still among the best around, although I am with those who are willing to pay another 50 cents to get the old dogs back. A few tips for CostCo dog enthusiasts: Ask them to wrap the dog and the bun separately. That way you can towel off the excess water from the dog and keep your bun from getting soggy. You know you can ask for kraut, right? Use the lid of the kraut container to hold the kraut back while you squeeze the container to remove the excess juice . . . again to keep your bun from getting soggy. If you like hot links, grab a packet of the red pepper they provide for pizza and sprinkle it on your dog before dressing it. Really kicks it up a notch! If you like Chicago style dogs, chop up a fresh tomato and pickle and smuggle it in with you. Add onion and mustard and enjoy the envious glances of your hot dog eating colleagues.— December 5, 2012 2:35 a.m.
