If you buy corn dogs

Don't cheap out and get the store brand.

Instead, buy State Fair corndogs.

I prefer the beef, but the turkey and chicken ones taste very similar.

A hot dog is a hot dog.

but State Fair corn dog breading is wonderful, soft and tastes like honey and funnel cakes. Even if you are lazy and microwave them instead of deep frying, they taste great and your house will still smell like a carnival.

This has been a Corn Dog PSA from your friend. Cats
 
Is this a paid advertisement?

I had one store brand corn dog left and one fresh box of State Fair corn dogs. But I wanted two corn dogs. So I made one from each.

The State Fair Dog was so much better that it inspired me to make this post. It put the other one to fucking shame. It was brutal.
 
Yeah I'm sure there are a bunch of them that get the breading just right. I guess the moral to take away is simply just "don't cheap out on the store brand corn dogs". This particular store brand was Great Value, a Wal-Mart brand, and the breading had almost no flavor. It was so bad that I tossed it outside for the riccoons and stray kitticats to find. After that first Delicious Dog it tasted like straight cardboard. I was tempted to pull the breading off but that would have been cursed. Who eats just a hot dog.
 
I was spoiled by Hot Dog on a Stick's corn dogs (made with Nathan's all-beef hot dogs) so I've never found frozen corn dogs to be particularly tasty, I prefer to make my own corn dogs with a home-made corn batter and all-beef hot dogs.
 
It's nothing I have ever seen in my corner of the world.

People who have fancy tastes in food ; is it really good?

Seems to me like this could be OK, but I have a hard time imagining it would be that good. The Dutch have their version of this with pastry, or deep fried with some mush (most likely the same mush this sausage is made from) it's fine but it's nothing crazy.

To clarify, I mean, can you make an elevated version of the dish? For example, fried chicken, although very good, is hardly a delicacy. Yet, with the right cooking time, batter and seasoning, you can make this shit a Michelin worthy dish.

You probably could with the breading because it is basically just cornmeal, flour, eggs and honey/sugar. Not too hard to make an elevated version of that. I'm not too sure if hotdogs can be redeemed, though, unless you used a fancy high quality sausage. However, given that corndogs are literally served on sticks, are they really worth the effort?

That's pretty much the answer I expected tbh.

I heard the word a number of times but was never curious to find out.

Also, real sausage is 100% worth it. What you are eating in hot dog is technically meat, most of it, but different. It's all the soft bones, the left overs, and everything they can't sell like anus, dick and vagina. Boiled down for hours into chemicals and molded into fake sausage casing.

If you have access to actual smoked sausage, never compromise with the soylent green version of the supermarket.
 
My local grocery store used to carry two types of State Fair corndogs. One was in a mostly blue box with some yellow, and the other was in a mostly yellow box with some blue. They tasted nearly identical. One type was fine to eat, and the other type gave me explosive diarrhea every single time I ate one. I'm a moron, so I could never remember which was which when I went to buy a new box. After maybe the third time picking the wrong box, I stopped eating corndogs altogether. Haven't had one in ten years. Every time I see someone eating a corndog, I imagine they're playing Russian roulette with their colon.
