Caption contest!

Posted in:

• Illinois

* From a reader…

A photo, in case you want a caption contest or a question of a day, from the Taste of Chicago preview held [yesterday] in the Daley Center.

I wondered how many multiples of the quoted price a “Mayor Daley ‘Tribute Dog’” finally costs when the overruns are done.

How many napkins do you need when you are done with the overruns?

How many unnecessary ingredients were hired to be on it?

Etc.

* The photo…

4. So, just wondering, did the alligator smoke before being turned into a sausage?

   How does one infuse cheddar cheese?

   Seriously, do they post the ingredients in that tribute dog? I wouldn’t touch it.

14. To which Mayor Daley does it pay tribute?

    Either way, it’s probably got a lot of pork in it.

    Comment by Joan P. Thursday, Jun 26, 14 @ 11:47 am

15. Tribute dog is cheaper but it’s the relish and mustard add-ons that really cost!

    Comment by Nearly Normal Thursday, Jun 26, 14 @ 11:56 am

16. So I got my Daley Dog and I’m sitting down to enjoy it, when, as I’m lifting it to take a bite, I notice that the mustard is poured like little X’s down the dog. Then all of a sudden, Frank Kruesi comes out of nowhere and grabs my hotdog and throws it in the trash.

    If you order one, tell them to hold the Meigs Field Tribute sauce.

    Comment by Streator Curmudgeon Thursday, Jun 26, 14 @ 12:25 pm

21. “(But for $10, you can get you’se a nice building permit)”

    Comment by Roadbuilder Thursday, Jun 26, 14 @ 12:52 pm

22. Might cost $5 now, but the REAL cost of that hot dog will hit you when it is long gone.

    Comment by CLJ Thursday, Jun 26, 14 @ 1:44 pm

23. The “Mayor Daley ‘Tribute Dog’” seems fine while you’re eating it, but after it passes you and your family will deal with its crippling aftermath for decades to come.
