Foodie Friday: last week we featured Spam, and this week I wanted to talk hot dogs. When I was in DC, we were talking about the politics of food and how hot dogs were introduced into the Japanese diet because of internment. I hadn’t heard anything about it, so I decided to look it up.Lo and behold, NPR has this story about Weenie Royale, a comfort food invented by internees using what rations they were given. -- source link
