The Costco Hot Dog is a 1/4lb hot dog sold at the international warehouse club Costco's food courts. It is notable for its price, which has remained steady at $1.50 in a combo deal including a soda at United States locations since its introduction in 1984. That price has become increasingly low relative to inflation and spawned a cult following

And as an added bonus, you get about three days worth of salt in that one hot dog.

It’s how I retain that resting heart rate of 112. I don’t even have to go to the gym anymore; I’m getting my cardio in just sitting here.

The sausage is so good too but that's not in the states IIRC

I used to be able to get a sausage at the one in Hackensack. Haven't been there in ages though so who knows now.

The sausage went away during the pandemic for my local.
