TKC FACT CHECK: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS 'KANSAS CITY STYLE' HOT DOGS!!!

Foodie culture and boredom have inspired locals to shove many things in their mouths but the defamation of this town by way of slathering garbage on a hot dog represents an unforgivable affront to the dignity of Kansas City's populace. 

In the course of human events . . . 

Kansas City deserves better than having the name of our beloved cowtown attached to condiment overdose atop questionable wieners. 

Nevertheless . . .

Here's pressed meat description that should ruin the appetite of any local resident with a soul:

"But what about Kansas City, that bluesy, beefy plains metropolis that is more known for their BBQ? Does KC have a municipal dog to call their own? The answer is yes ... and no. While organizations like the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council (NHDSC) list a Kansas City-style dog — one topped with sauerkraut and Swiss cheese on a sesame seed bun — on their compendium of regional takes, other outlets, like Men's Journal, says that a truer take would be a dog topped with brisket burnt ends and sweet, smoky KC barbecue sauce."

Petetheboy/Shutterstock Kansas City has a culinary legacy that is impressive to say the least, notes Google Arts & Culture. An early rail hub, Kansas City was the destination for cattle drives originating from as far away as Texas. That necessitated a massive stockyard complex, one that flourished until 1991, housing thousands of heads of cattle and pigs, explains KC Today.
