So,

Who likes 'em, who secretly eats them without telling others, and are all the corn dog outlets still open at DL at the moment ?

...I still think they're the swankest of all Theme Park snacks.

Hey, I had one for lunch! Interesting to eat when your mouth is all numbed up with novacain. Not a ginormous Park one, but it was still okay.

I was planning on getting a corn dog at DCA on the last day of my trip out at DL. Unfortunately, those plans were ripped assunder when I had to cancel my last day plans in order to try to get an earlier flight to try to beat Hurricane Francis to my house. Sadly, I did not get to eat a corn dog when I was out in California. Maybe this year.

The last time I had a corn dog from DCA I had, um, "digestive difficulties." I don't eat those anymore.

I must take part of the blame for the lack of corn dog on HTH's vacation. I am the one who called him up on the phone from Orlando and said, "Hey, the airports might be closing soon, so you better get to the airport now and see if you can get an early flight." He took my advice, and spent 9 plus hour at LAX that he could have been spending in DL. Sorry, man.

By the way, I once wrote a song about corn dogs because I used to love them so much. I don't eat a lot of deep fried stuff these days, but corn dogs do bring back lotsa memories. Anyhow, the song (composed when I was about six or seven) went something like this:

Corny corny corn dog, jumping down the stairs
Corny corny corn dog, you're the answer to my prayers

Those were the only lyrics, repeated endlessly as I bounced around flailing my arms.

Hmmm, now I want a corn dog.

flippyshark is just overflowing with talent. :D

I have this weird relationship with corn dogs. I kinda like 'em. I'm not in love with the corn part, and I always think there's way too much of it. So whenever I get one I end up discarding about half the corn stuff. I do enjoy the other half with the dog though. Maybe I should make my own homemade ones so they won't have so much corn? It's not often I get one, especially in public, since it's so embarrassing tearing off the coating.

I can only eat about 3/4 of a Disneyland corndog. Trust me, I've got a decent appetite, but there comes that point of "too much of this flavor'" with the corndogs at the park. Not exactly low carb, either.
I do like a good hot dog, though. Bunless, of course.

P.S. Stan4dSteph, I think corn gives a lot of people "digestive issues."

Why am I hearing Carol Channing in my head?

Up until about a year ago, I don't think I had ever eaten more than two in my lifetime. They just didn't do anything for me. One day we went to Weinershnitzel(sp?) and I got one just because it sounded good for some reason. Something clicked and now I love them. I actually have a box of them in my freezer right now. :)

I like the ones in DL but they are just too big for me so I rarely get them. And yes, the grease is what gets to me.

My decidedly unswank, short lived, love of corn dogs was as a result of the power of suggestion by my lamaze teacher/doula. So, after every lamaze class, I had to go get a couple of corn dogs and a grape slushie.

Nathan was able to do the same thing with pudding. All he had to do was say "Pudding". I would instantly say in my best pregnancy craving voice "Oooooooh pudding!". Ironically, I never took a single bite of pudding through two pregnancies.

Actually that could appeal. Though I wouldn't eat them together in one bite. Peel off a corn dog and it is pre-condimented with some cheese and a little bit of tomato sauce. Could make for a good corn dog.

Then eat a slice of pizza. Though that particular pizza looks to be of substandard quality.

You know, I broke down and had one of those battered cheese-on-a-stick things they sell at the Corn Dog Castle in DCA, it was good! Good cheddar cheese when I was expecting something Velveetaesque, and a really nice texture to the fried corn meal. Sort of like eating a grilled cheese made with cornbread. Aside from the carbs, I recommend! You can pretend its less bad for you by having the apple slices instead of potato chips.

If the oil isn't hot enough or if the dog is left in too long, the batter will absorb oil instead of just cooking in it. Unfortunately in a high-throughput operation like the corn dog cart, new dogs will be dropped before the oil temp has recovered from the last batch. The best time to get one is probably when there's no line, so you'll get a fresh one cooked in hot oil.

Until recently I had only ever tasted one particular sort of corndog - the sort that comes as a hot lunch in elementary school.

It was unbelievably disgusting, and I hadn't had one since.

Until a couple weeks ago, when in a fit to "try everything" at the park (except that stupid Fantasyland restaurant - I draw the line at voluntary food poisoning) we split a corn dog from the official cart on Main Street.

I am now a convert. And I'm hungry.

Only Mustard or perhaps a Ketchup/Mustard mix work on a Corndog, Ketchup alone does not cut the mustard.

Only if you're pregnant and craving silly food items. Otherwise, no.

I conquered the craving and had a tuna sandwich, not nearly as satisfying, I must say.

Are there any Hot Dog On A Stick (http://www.hotdogonastick.com/frames.html) or Wienerschnitzel (http://www.wienerschnitzel.com) locations nearby? They won't be a substitute for Disney corn dogs, but at least they're corn dogs. :D

Yes, Kevy you made a point.

Well, Daly City is not San Francisco, per se. And Stonestown is a rather long trip on MUNI and by the time I got there, the craving would be long since over and done with. ;) The other locations are spread far and wide in every direction and mostly in malls, over whose thresholds I rarely cross.

I'll simply have to experiment on my own at home. Now would it be total overkill to use something so delicious as a Nathan's Hot Dog (harldy a low fat hot dog) to be enrobed by deep fried corn batter?

Voila !!

Corn Dogs - Hot Diggity Baked Not Fried

1 cup All-purpose flour
1 cup Yellow cornmeal
3 tablespoons Sugar
1 tablespoon Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
3 tablespoons Butter - cut
1/4 cup + 2 tablespoon low-fat milk
1 Egg
6 Wooden sticks
6 Hot dogs
Non-stick cooking spray

Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor. Pulse 2-3 times to combine. Add the butter and pulse 5-6 times until mixture is crumbly.

Add the milk and egg and pulse just until the dough holds together.

Remove the dough and place it on a cutting board. Knead about 5-6 times then divide the dough into 6 equal portions.

Roll each dough portion into a thin, flat rectangle.

Insert a wooden stick mid-point into each hot dog. Place the hot dog lengthwise down one side of a piece of dough and roll up. Smooth the edges with water.

Repeat with remaining hot dogs.

Refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray and place the corn dogs onto the sheet.

Bake at 190°C (375°F) for 12 minutes, turning often to promote even browning.

I can vouch for these - a little drier than fried, but plenty of ketsup & mustard will take care of that.

Nice shirt - but I would never enter one of these contests. Corn dogs should be savored, not stuffed down one's esophagus at the fastest possible speed. And the Zazzle shirt is very nice.

I was at the drive-in the other monring (for their flea market) and I had a corn dog for breakfast - a first for me, I'm pretty sure.

At the OC Fair last night I had a "Totally Fried Zucchini Weeni", which is a corn dog, except the hot dog is first inserted into a hollowed out zucchini before being sticked and battered.

I approve.

Why in the world would you eat zuchini. Were they out of styrofoam?

(Not that zucchini is gross, but it's sole value is in adding bulk and filler without providing any flavor or value. Kind of like iceberg lettuce in squash form.)

Even I don't want to eat a corn dog flavored mint. (admittedly, if I was offered one, I would be curious enough to try it - but it seems unlikely that I would really love it.)

On the other hand, visiting Archie McFee for even a few moments is very dangerous. I found wonderful good-bad gifts for everyone in my family in just a couple of clicks.

Ghoulish Delight

I don't know, somehow it seems worse. I think it's because bacon is just bacon, and while the thought of a bacon mint isn't exactly appealing, at least it's a pretty straight forward flavor - cured smoked pig. The fact that a mint that's corndog flavored means that they've somehow synthesized the separate flavors of hot dog and fried corn bread batter down into a single flavor is conceptually more stomach-churning. Perhaps because it brings to mind an image of someone blending a corndog into a homogeneous smoothie.

Reminds me of a story...

I was in high school when I had four impacted wisdom teeth removed. Two days later, the rest of my family went on a ten day vacation. Because my jaw/teeth/gums were still quite sore, I couldn't chew very well and hard foods were right out. So during that time, I subsisted almost entirely on frozen Marie Calendar chicken pot pies which (after cooking) I put in the food processor. Granted, it looked nasty, but it tasted great (I freaking love pot pies). I liked it so much that I ate them that way for months—long after I had recovered from the oral surgery. I would have continued longer but I got sick of cleaning the food processor.

Novel idea, but ixnay on the fish sausage! I'd be willing to try it with a hot dog or meat* sausage. However, it couldn't replace my love for fried corn dogs because this method could not produce a crispy crust.


*I know fish is meat, I meant beef, pork, or poultry.
