VPR Cafe: Hot Dog!

VPR
Gus' Red Hots with fries and coleslaw has been a favorite at the Plattsbugh, New York diner since 1951

Nothing says summer like hot dogs, and host Ric Cengeri is especially fond of chili dogs! Today, Ric changes places with Sally Pollak to talk about the chili dogs that he has sampled across the country.

Sally writes for the Savorvore Section of The Burlington Free Press. Today, she and Ric trade places and she asks the questions. They also take a field trip to Brigantes Snack Bar in Colchester to see how Michigans are made.

By the way, Plattsburgh, New York is the birthplace of Michigans, which they do not have in Michigan!

The VPR Cafe is produced in collaboration with The Burlington Free Press.

Broadcast on Sunday, August 17, 2014 at 10:50 a.m.

Franny was VPR's Director of Programming & Production.
Ric was a producer for Vermont Edition and host of the VPR Cafe.
