Corn dog
A corn dog is a hot dog that has been deep fried in a cornmeal batter. The corn dog was invented in the 1920s by Carl and Neil Fletcher, who owned a concession stand at the State Fair of Texas. The Fletchers used a family recipe for cornbread batter to create the first corn dogs.
The popularity of the corn dog quickly spread, and the dish can now be found at fairs and carnivals across the United States. Today, there are many different variations of the corn dog, including vegetarian and gluten-free options.
Whether you enjoy corn dogs as a nostalgic treat or a fun foodie adventure, there’s no doubt that this deep-fried dish has a place in American history.
