Hot Dogs

Chinese tourists were in a cold sweat;
our cultural foods made them upset.
After hot dogs are bought,
one’s a little distraught -
“Which part of the dog did you get?”

Can't we blindfold em, and see if They'll bet? I hear the Chinese don't break sweat When they rush into a wager; gambolling's Their behaviour; whether its little or large to get.

Hi Lindsay, Missed this fun limerick - imagine ordering a hot dog and finding out you have actually eaten part of a dog! Who knows however what actually goes into them - Nevertheless, I do enjoy a good hot dog! Poetry hugs, Jennifer.

Hello Jennifer … to be honest with you Jennifer, I don't really care either what goes in a hot dog. I don't think there's much waste any more in hamburgers, meat pies, etc. - thanks for commenting Jennifer - Lindsay

Ghastly to know that dogs are on some menu's in China. I prefer our mixed up pork hot dogs in America, not that I have ever tasted real dog. LOL Cute poem Lindsay! : ) xxoo

I prefer not to think about what 'parts' go into them, but a fun limerick to read!
