Americans will eat more than an estimated 7 billion hot dogs between Memorial Day and Labor Day, with more than 150 million consumed on July 4th alone, according to the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council. But what will top all those dogs? Oscar Mayer conducted a survey to find out how Americans like to dress their dogs.
· Among the 10 markets surveyed, mustard (77%) was the No. 1 one hot dog topping, followed by ketchup (58%), onions (50%), relish (47%) and cheese (41%).
· Nearly 40% of men and 45% of women said that backyard cookouts are their favorite summer hot dog eating occasion, while 34% of men and 44% of women said they don’t need a special occasion; they eat hot dogs all summer long.
· More than half of Americans plan to have more hot dogs at cookouts or family gatherings due to the economy.
