I guess you can blame it all on my roots, but I am a grown woman who can admit she still likes hot dogs.
This little factoid isn’t too shocking considering how many times my biological father and I hit up Sonic for their chili cheese dogs during my formative years.
Honestly, I can’t place all the blame on him. My mom would slice up hot dogs as a macaroni and cheese additive when I was a kid, while other times we would roast them over a campfire on a stick.
And, before I knew it, along came my amazing stepfather who introduced me to the chili cheese dogs served at the CreeMee in Eldon, Mo. Gosh, those are amazing!
It’s not like I crave hot dogs on a daily basis, but I am certainly not a food snob who acts like hot dogs are pure childhood junk food that I should never indulge in. And, indulge I sure have!
