Oscar Mayer Has Officially Declared That A Hot Dog Is A Sandwich, And People Are Outraged
Ahead of National Sandwich Day, Oscar Mayer decided to settle a very important debate that's been around for quite some time: they declared hot dogs official members of the sandwich family. That is, they believe hot dogs are sandwiches.
Just for funsies (and advertising purposes, but we'll get to that later), they also dropped an official Oscar Mayer "Is a Hot Dog A Sandwich?" hotline this morning, which you can reach at 1-833-SNDWICH. The hotline is toll-free and asks you to give any and all thoughts-whether you agree with the company on their stance or not-on the subject.
When you call the hotline (oh yes. I called it.), you hear the Oscar Mayer jingle, which is so cute and fun. Then you're told to go ahead and leave your opinion after the beat...and that by doing so you're consenting to the company using your message in any way they'd like, though they specifically site Twitter as a place they may use it. You can remain anonymous while leaving your message.
The hotline will only live for 24 hours, so if you feel strongly about any of the above, go ahead and let them have it. This also feels like a good time to mention that anyone who believes a hot dog is a sandwich has also likely committed the most egregious of crimes: putting ketchup on their hot dogs. Ugh. For shame.
