The Hamdog: The Crazy New Food Trend

Hamdog

A hamdog is an Australian sandwich. It consists of a formed bread bun with a chopped steak cut in 2. And a hotdog placed in between the 2 halves that is then flat-topped off with cheese, pickles, sauces, tomato, lettuce and onion.

Cocoa butter is a natural product derived from cocoa beans. It is a solid form of fat that melts at room temperature. It is a key ingredient in chocolate and other cocoa products, which are often used as food items or ingredients in cosmetics.

Grass fed beef is becoming more popular in the United States as people are becoming more aware of the benefits. This type of beef is also healthier for humans to eat because the animals were not given antibiotics or hormones.

History

There is a long history of eating a variation of the hotdog, but what is a hamdog? In the Australian barbecue that is affectionately known as the ‘barbie’, people will often dig into a cooked cut of beef. When it’s cooked, it’s quite tough, but if left in the sun for a day, it can soften and taste really good. Ham-based burgers are often used as a topping, but they take a very long time to cook, and they don’t actually taste very good when they’re cooked that way.

The people of Australia have come up with a solution to this problem. The Sydney Morning Herald reports that the steaks are braised in a mixture of beer and herbs, similar to the American ‘pulled pork’.

Hamdog

A hamdog is an Australian sandwich consisting of a formed bread bun with a chopped steak cut in 2. And a hotdog placed in between the 2 halves that is then flat-topped off with cheese, pickles, sauces, tomato, lettuce and onion. The bun is then sliced in half lengthwise and placed on the hotdog.

Hamdogs originated in the 1980’s at Sydney’s Kings Cross Nightclubs. In 1983 “The Great Hamdog Lunch” promotion was held with the winner winning a trip to America to visit The Hot Dog factory.

The sandwich has spread to America where Burger King introduced a Hot Dog Cheese Sandwich. They are selling it from the late 1990’s to 2001.

According to the Google Trends, American’s eat 3.4 million hamdogs each year.

Hamdogs are now being sold worldwide.

Where can I find a hamdog?

All the major Australian fast food chain’s have them on the menu. Subway’s sub: sausage patty, ham, bacon and cheese, placed in between two halves of a bread bun. McDonalds sausage patty, ham, bacon, cheese, lettuce and tomato. Hungry Jack’s Bacon, lettuce and tomato and KFC’s Original Recipe hot dog. Lettuce and tomato, placed in between the 2 halves of a bread bun, topped with tomato and served with cheese sauce and hot sauce.

In New Zealand, they’re commonly sold in the central North Island.

Conclusion

Here is an update on the financial advice that originated on Quora, and used to sell $85 million dollars in intellectual property rights to Harvard University. For the uninitiated, let me try and explain what a patent is. Patents are one of the few non-human things that exist in the world, so they are not subject to extinction, and hence they can be added to through clever trickery. Patenting these nifty ideas allows others to purchase this invention and integrate it into their own products and businesses. Harvard paid out $85 million dollars for this patent. And now this intellectual property has been all but lost to all mankind.
