Sadsack Mate Ruins Hotdog By Reminding You How They’re Made

A young man in Betoota’s French Quarter has had his meal ruined by someone he once considered a friend. 

After joining his mate Sammy for a drink or two in a bar off High Street, Jonah Doggett (27) began to feel a little bit peckish. 

On his way up to order a third round, he picked up a menu and quickly decided a classic hot dog would do the trick. 

“It was a bit of a random pick but I was keen as. Hadn’t had a hotdog in ages. Like a proper American hotdog just actually hits different,” he later told The Advocate. 

Within minutes of wandering back to the table with him and Sammy’s drinks, the waitress had already placed down his dinner.

“Yum,” he said. But as Jonah readied himself for a bite, his mate piped up.  

“Bro those are so bad for you, do you know how they’re made ha ha. Dude the photos are full fucked you should google it. Wait I’ll show you,” he said, reaching for his phone. 

Jonah shuddered. He had of course seen the photos but until then had managed to file them away in his brain. 

He looked back to his hot dog, which if he stared at long enough, really did begin to resemble the disgusting behind-the-scenes sludge. 

Sammy was still talking about all the gross shitty off-cuts going into a grinder. 

“Fucks sake,” he mumbled. 

He threw the hot dog back down into its red basket, lined with checkered paper. The two men stared down at it, sad and discarded. 

“Well are you gonna eat it bro ha ha. I’ll have it if not.”
