Minnie, it's a German sausange, the best ones are found grilled on a cut in half 50 gallon oil drum at church picnics or elementary school homecomings.

Un the U.S. they are geographically found roaming mostly in the area west of the Apalachians and east of the Rockies, As far north as the Canadian border and as far south as Texas apparently. Would be located next to the stand that sells corn dogs. Some have been spotted in exotic locations like Bien Otto's in Bangkok and my uncle's back yard in New Hampshire.

Best served with saurkraut and mustard, washed down with a cold beer.

Done properly, upon eating one you will think you have died and gone to heaven. Done improperly you will be spending a lot of time getting to know the others in line to use the "green bathroom" at the fair.

Come to think of it, the oil content of these babies makes it the perfect food with those of us with dry mouth, slide right down.

I couldn't resist.
