The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council is out with a list of the top hot dog consuming cities for 2020. Meh… OK. The problem with the list is that it’s basically all the really large cities. Los Angeles is number one followed by New York City, then Dallas, Chicago and Philly. So, naturally, the largest cities eat the most hot dogs.
What I’d like to know from the NHDSC is what cities consume the most hot dogs per capita. And they have that info for us!
Based on hot dog sales per capita, Buffalo is the city where hot dogs are most popular:
- Buffalo, NY
- Raleigh/Durham, NC
- Charlotte
- Paducah, KY/Cape Girardeau, MO
- Greensboro, NC
- Birmingham, AL
- Knoxville, TN
- Little Rock, AR
- Albany, NY
- Nashville
And now... you know!
