Hot Dog Cool Facts

On Independence Day, Americans will enjoy 150 million hot dogs – enough to stretch from D.C. to L.A. over five times.
During Hot Dog Season – Memorial Day to Labor Day – Americans typically consume 7 billion hot dogs – or 818 hot dogs consumed every second during that period.
According to data ending Dec. 24, 2006, more than 730 million packages of hot dogs were sold at retail stores, not including Wal-Mart, which does not report sales data. That number represents more than $1.5 billion in retail sales.
