Best of Both Worlds in the Hot Dog Universe?

Now, we saw last time that it is important to have a back up plan, such as a skateboarding monkey, when things get tough.

And this is applicable to many fields of life - the stockmarket, choosing between a ramen shop and a chicken restaurant for lunch, or...

... designing an innovative fusion hot dog.

Here we have the Kurokedogu (Kuroke + Hot Dog; a kuroke is a fried lump of potatoes, meat, or anything, really, that is lying around). $1.40. "Juicy egg salad and spicy sauce kuroke in a fluffy and soft bun".


Here's a close-up :

But if you want to be even more original, you need to go for the ...

... Yakisobadogu (Noodle Hot Dog):

Spicy noodles with two types of Oriba sauce in a bun, with mayo. Sounds appealing at first, but that pink stuff is ginger, and, bear in mind that you are going to probably eat it cold.

And this is, of course, just like the market. When you find a new product created from the fusion of well-known ingredients, it doesn't mean it offers the best of both worlds.
