Quotes About Frankfurters

I remember it was a nativity type setting. An exit light shining down. There were three truck drivers there. One guy was carrying butter, one guy had frankfurters, and the other guy was a retired baseball scout who told my folks that I probably had a chance to play somewhere down the line.
~ Bill Schroeder
The dachshund, so strongly associated with Germany, became a 'liberty pup' during the First World War, and after it the increasingly popular German Shepherds were renamed Alsatians in light of persisting anti-German feeling. During the same period frankfurters and sauerkraut were relabelled as 'hot dogs' and 'liberty cabbage'.
~ Henry Hitchings
