Milwaukee, WI
Here are restaurants in the Milwaukee area to get a hot dog on National Hot Dog Day July 16
WATCH: New Jersey’s most controversial hot dog is back
Served at 1950 Originals each January, this limited-edition “Ramen Dog” has divided the internet since it hit Instagram last winter.
National Hot Dog Day – which is Wednesday, July 16 – is your chance to find a tasty hot dog to try, with many area restaurants featuring the item on its menu.
And here is a fun fact about hot dogs: They are a good source of protein. According to USA Today, hot dogs normally have 5 grams of protein.
While it can be mixed if hot dogs are healthy or not, some argue putting vegetables as toppings can assist with hot dogs being part of a healthy diet.
“They are healthy because they are natural, all beef with lots of veggies,” said Reannen Anderson, owner of Waukesha-based food truck, Big John’s Burgers and Dogs in Waukesha.
These are many Milwaukee-area restaurants to grab a hot dog.
