#hot-dog

This label has taken off on the internet and threatens to become the number one title for hot dogs. Confusingly, the name eschews the traditional slang for hot dogs that reference the sausage's origins with names like frankfurter, or its makeup with names like tube steak, and instead refers to a firearm. Specifically, the word glizzy is apparently derived from the Glock handgun, with the suffix "izzy" tacked on after the first couple letters.

The grilled cheese hot dog combines two classic comfort foods, taking indulgence to a new level while remaining simple to make and delicious.

In 1901, New York Journal cartoonist Tad Dorgan heard vendors selling 'red hot' dachshund sausages at a polo match, which may have led to the term 'hot dog'.
