Why doesn McDonalds serve Hot Dogs?
Apparently they did at one time but it seems that the reason they don’t is a one of these two or both: 1) CEO Ray Kroc didn’t want hot dogs served 2) other search results reveal people thought they were gross. Here’s an excerpt from Wikipedia: Hot Dogs – In his 1977 autobiography CEO Ray Kroc prohibited the company from selling hot dogs, regardless of potential demand, as he regarded them as unhygienic; however, hot dogs were introduced in the late 1990s at some midwestern located stores (at the option of the franchise-holder) as a summer item. UK Stores sold Hot Dogs during the late nineties on the McChoice menu (later PoundSaver). Also, at least one American restaurant offered Oscar Mayer hot dogs at some time, and McDonald’s locations at Toronto Metro Zoo and SkyDome in Toronto offered hot dogs until 1999.
