I recently moved to the Czech Republic and found out that their hotdogs are already like this. The meat cylinder goes into a tube. It makes so much more sense than the sandwich!

    Wikipedia says this approach originated in Germany, called ‘Würstchen im Schlafrock’. Afaik it's popular in Eastern Europe.

    English-speakers may know it as ‘pigs in a blanket’.

    Pigs in blanket in the UK would mean cocktail sausage in bacon or pastry
    It could be both, but I've never come across it

    Are 'cocktail sausages' made from a variety of meats boiled, cured, or smoked — shaken, but not quite stirred together, so to say?

    Here in the southern US, pigs in a blanket is typically made from little cocktail smokies wrapped in about 1/3'rd of an uncooked pilsbury cresssant, then tossed in an oven until done. I really thought a sausage roll from Tesco would be similar but it was not... That's when I realized y'all have pretty bad food there (no offense), why did you guys start putting hotdogs in pizza crust? As an aside, I love how orderly everyone queues up for stuff there, almost like a country with functioning adults that teach their kids how to wait their turn.

    But where do you put the tomatoes, pickle, peppers, and onions?

    The tomatoes get turned into sauce for some pasta I'm cooking later, the pickles get munched on during a warm summer day, the peppers go into that pasta sauce I was talking about, and the onions go in there too, as none of those things belong on a hotdog
