Curious

I was wondering if anyone has a list or knows what cities, counties, ect, do not allow the cooking of bacon wrapped hotdogs? I know california has such a law. I am curious if TN does.

Wrap (pun intended) up another regulation for California. The most over regulated state in the country.

We do? Why? I never heard of that law.

J-B Weld.

This has to be one of the most outrageous food concepts I've heard. Why in the world would someone want to do this? Cook bacon wrapped hot dogs, I mean (not banning such). I can't quite imagine how someone would even attempt this; roll the dog in the bacon barber pole style, and then fasten the ends with toothpicks??

Are you talking about cooking the bacon dogs on a cart? The regulations for food carts would be covered by individual county health departments, not a state agency. If you're talking about in restaurants or at home, no such law exists in California. Heck, I can walk to the store around the corner right now and pick up a package of dogs already wrapped in bacon, just waiting to be fried up. Mmmmmmmm bacony goodness.

I think it comes down to pre-cooked meats that are allowed to be served (Hot Dogs) on a cart (just need to be heated). When you wrap it in bacon, your using an un-cooked food item, which a lot of health departments don't allow.

Thank you. That makes perfect sense now.

I like to wrap them in bacon. Secure with tooth pics then deep fry. I think I will try a bacon corn dog...Russ
