Prepare for Corndog Day
National Corndog Day is Saturday, March 22, and we Illinoisans have special reason to celebrate. After all, the battered and deep-fried hot dog on a stick was invented in Springfield (though stickless versions predate it).
If you're interested in celebrating locally, you have plenty of options, but die-hard fans may want to join the LTHForum folks at noon at Weiner and Still Champion, 802 Dempster in Evanston, for what's considered one of the best examples of the genre. They'll also be trying the "Luther Burger," a cheeseburger with Krispy Kreme donuts for buns. And then heading up to Northwestern Memorial for triple-bypasses at a group discount.
