RI folks tend to put malt vinegar on their fries.

I don't know why.

And a weiner is not a hot dog. It's different. It's actually not legal to sell them in Massachusetts. Makes you wonder.

A red hot looks like a hot dog, but it's red.

Again, I don't know why.

I even called three dog vendors in Pawtucket one time and couldn't get a straight answer on any of those questions, excpet a frankfurter is just a hot dog.

The other two?

Who knows?

The red hot dogs are made in Maine. They have a natural casing (giving them a distinctive “snap” when you bite into them) that is dyed red. Why – (shrug) don’t know. The company that used to make them, Jordan’s, went out of business from what I heard. I think Kayem makes them now.

Putting vinegar on fries is a typical British thing to do but they call them “chips” not fries (my father-in-law and a guy I use to work with are both Brits). Why do Brits do this? My take is they do it to hide the fact that fries in England are probably soggy anyways due to the lovely gray weather they usually have.

Vinegar is great, but I tend to just do salt and ketchup.

Del's is classic. Cawfee milk is wicked classic.

Gansett is good session beer. The old Clipper cans were better than the new ones though. The new Porter is ok. Gansett Light is great for beer games.

I ahve no idea what the difference betwene the 3 is. I eat Saugies, and only Saugies.

With chorizco. And extra clams. And Frank's red hot. Brother is actually quahogging right now, gonna have stuffies for dinner. Wicked awesome.

Truth be told, nobody likes it. But since it is only like $12 for a case of pounders, it is tough to beat.

It is also usually on draft for like $2. Though once I had to pay $5 for a draft of it. Once.

Damn ! Thats like the time i went to an Eagles game and all they had was 5 dollar Miester Braus! Plus they would pour it outta the can into a cup and spill half of it. From then on i wore my full length P-COAT and filled every pocket.
