Hot dogs that look like hamburgers spark confusion online
Can't decide between a hot dog or hamburger for lunch? Now you can have both.
A butchery in the US has the internet in meltdown mode after it listed “round dogs” for sale on its website.
Rastelli's butcher is selling round hot dog “patties” in a pack of four for $10 (R140).
It has marketed the patties as the ultimate solution to those who want to get their hot dog fix but have run out of hot dog rolls. You know, instead of just cutting the sausage in half to fit it on a hamburger roll.
“Run out of hot dog buns? No problem. Our Round Dog is everything you love in a hot dog in the shape of a burger,” a description of the product on their website reads.
The patties also have ridges and a flat surface so that they can hold more sauce.
The move has sparked tons of reaction on the TL, with many questioning whether you would boil it before grilling, and others saying it would be a “time saver” for lunch.
I wish people would not post stuff like this

Wait wait wait... So it's a hot dog... patty? Do you eat it on a...burger bun?? 😳 I think my brain actually stopped for a second trying to process how to categorize this into my existing food knowledge framework.

These would be perfect to pan fry and save the hassle of different buns at a BBQ. I'm kind of into it?

Glizzy Patties going up this summer. Matter of fact, I might finally be able to combine the hot dog and burger in one bite. Let’s get it.

One must also ask, will we be grilling this? A boiled “regular” hotdog makes me shudder. Boiling this seems beyond disturbing.
