A Dab of Heresy

Boulder, CO

Many hot dog places have strict rules against ketchup on dogs. Dirty Harry says it best in Sudden Impact, "Nah, this stuff isn't getting to me, the shootings, the knifings, the beatings, old ladies being bashed in the head for their social security checks. Nah, that doesn't bother me. But you know what does bother me? You know what makes me really sick to my stomach? It's watching you stuff your face with those hotdogs. Nobody, I mean nobody puts ketchup on a hot dog." My wife smothers her hot dogs with ketchup. For me, it's just mustard and relish. For this shot, I prayed to Clint Eastwood for forgiveness, and then put on as much as I could stand. Of course, you might think this shot is doubly heretical, because the hot dog doesn't even have any meat in it (it's a soy dog), but then again, regular hot dogs have, at best, animal-related products.
