Popular hot dog toppings
I, for one, am all for as many toppings as I can fit. I’ve even been mocked for the way I prepare them.
I like to make each bite a different experience. One bite will have beans, another spicy mustard and sauerkraut, sometimes the next will be onions and jalapeños, and another ketchup.

What do New Jerseyans like to put on a hot dog?
According to a press release by Canada Casino, the number one topping for New Jersey hot dog eaters is yellow mustard sauce. With a whopping 54% of respondents saying it’s their favorite topping.
Tied at number two are onions and sauerkraut.
Controversy comes with the number three slot: ketchup.
Does ketchup go on a hot dog?
I never understood the hate that people have for putting ketchup on a hot dog. In fact, it was the favorite hot dog topping in 23 states.
Fourth place goes to cheese.
Cut the dog open while it’s still on the grill and let the cheese melt to perfection. Yum!
Chili sauce takes fifth place: for me, the spicier the better!
Rounding out the rest of the top ten:
6️⃣ Cheese sauce
7️⃣ Chili beans
8️⃣ Pickles / Bacon (tie)
9️⃣ Chili peppers
