I’ve only got one word for this – WOW!!! Let me set this up for you… You know that the E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart is the cheapest way to get started in this business.

Founded by German immigrant Oskar Ferdinand Mayer in 1989, Oscar Mayer were one of the first cold cuts manufacturers to start branding their products in 1904, and in 1906 amongst the first companies to voluntarily submit to the newly created Food Safety Inspection Service for testing the purity of their products.

If you are from New York, or have ever visited, you no doubt know about the "red onion sauce" that graces Sabrett hot dogs served from hot dog carts on the streets of the big apple. This famous concoction used to be made independantly by each cart owner and the recipe varied from person to [...]
