Today the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council launched a bracket to determine the Official Hot Dog Condiment Champion. Their bracket separates wet and dry condiments, but in the end there will only be one winner of these 16 competitors: sauerkraut, ketchup, mustard, cole slaw, chili, BBQ sauce, mayonnaise, onions, cheese, tomatoes, sweet peppers, hot peppers, bacon, pickles and pulled pork.
John Del Signore refuses to even dignify this "competition" with a comment, but has firmly declared his anti-ketchup stance during some casual office talk. Yakas took his silence as an opportunity to take one last swing for ketchup, however: "It's just like mustard defenders to disappear conveniently right when the harsh light of injustice is shined upon their faces."
Update: Del Signore has issued this statement: "At a very young age my younger brother fell prey to the sick and twisted subculture of ketchup-on-hot dogs. My family tried everything to help him pull his life together, but nothing worked, and in the end our only resort was tough love. He now lives in isolation deep in south Brooklyn, and we barely speak. Soiling hot dogs with ketchup is a perverse abomination, and one that I find difficult to discuss, for obvious personal reasons. I will have no further comment on this matter—enough lives have been destroyed."

I agree. No sane person would use ketchup on good hot dogs. Of course, most ketchup crowd persons don’t eat good hot dogs. For the true epicure, mustard is the only condiment.
Mayo, Mustard, Relish, Onion
Rabbit BBs to you de Blasio scum lovers; everyone who is anyone knows that the list needs to include relish, dill pickle slices and celery salt to bring out the true taste of a great Vienna hot dog, preferably on a heated poppy seed bun.
You don’t know what a great hot dog is til you get out of your crime infested home and come to our crime infested home of Chicago!
In my far-less-than-modest opinion, there are only two acceptable ways to top a hot dog:
1) Mustard and pickle relish (and sauerkraut if you have some handy)
2) Chili and cheese.
No ketchup. The only thing more wrong than ketchup on a hot dog is mayonnaise on a hot dog.
and if you do get probiotics make sure they are enteric coated - meaning the capsule will survive the stomach acid to make it alive into your small intestine.

There are only three things I MUST have ketchup on: french fries (or any other variant of fried potatoes), burgers, and meat loaf. And I’ll occasionally put ketchup on scrambled eggs. But that is it.
Interesting. I’ve heard of people putting peanut butter on a burger, but never a hot dog.
I agree...I hate ketchup with a passion.....Worst condiment ever invented.
Picante, Louisiana Hot Sauce (or Pete’s or Tabasco), jalapenos, onions, mustard, black (or red) pepper, and, cheese.
That’s a hot dog.
In Hong Kong they always put mayo on hotdogs.
You can get the ketchup from amazon.

Kind of pricey though...
Thanks a big pet peave of mine my wife loves ketchup dogs
Try BBQ sauce and French-fried onion rings.
Its Goooooood.
Mustard goes on hot dogs and pastrami or corned beef sandwiches. Ketchup only goes on hamburgers and french fries, on anything else it’s an abomination.
I must admit: I do not care for hot dogs much, will eat it though if hungry enough!
