They say it's taboo to put ketchup on a genuine Chicago dog. A Chicago dog is a steamed or boiled all-beef hot dog on a poppy seed bun. Toppings include mustard, sweet pickle relish, onion, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, sport peppers, and celery salt, but never ketchup! So since I was in Chicago, I made sure to try one.I found a hot dog stand in Navy Pier which serves different types of hot dog sandwiches from across America. On the menu of America's Dog are the following:
- Chicago dog - mustard, relish, onion, sport peppers, tomato, pickle and celery salt
- Buffalo dog - Buffalo sauce, bleu cheese and celery salt
- Dallas dog - chili, onion and shredded cheddar cheese
- New York dog - sauerkraut and brown mustard
- Baltimore dog - deep-fried dog, melted cheddar cheese and grilled onions
- Kansas City dog - melted Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and yellow mustard
- Louisiana dog - BBQ sauce, grilled onions and tomato
- Green Bay dog - melted cheddar cheese
- Atlanta dog - coleslaw, chili, mustard, ketchup and onion
- Pittsburgh dog - chili and yellow mustard
