Oscar Mayer is releasing a hot dog-infused ice cream sandwich

https://mashable.com/article/oscar-mayer-hot-dog-mustard-ice-cream/

A food evil greater than pineapple pizza has emerged, and we need to band together for some good ol' fashion public shaming.

Sound the ice cream truck alarm, because a accursed food is on its way: hot dog ice cream.

The food fight began with the mustard company French's, who announced their collaboration with Coolhaus to bring us French's Mustard Ice Cream in honor of National Mustard Day on Saturday. Heinous, but not deplorable. The food truck bringing this to the masses will at least carry a pretzel cookie to cleanse your palate, and also your sense of what is right in the world.

But we're not here to talk about them today. Another brand stepped up to the plate to challenge them, upping the culinary anté when it was really not necessary. Oscar Mayer has announced the Ice Dog Sandwich. Yes, you read that right.

I mean, I’ve eaten garlic ice cream, and that wasn’t bad. But hot dog infused ice cream? I don’t even know how that would work, but I can’t imagine a scenario where it would taste good.

Imagine Maple Bourbon Ice Cream with Pecans, Bacon Bits and mini-hot dog O's

Or straight out of the Field of Dreams "If You Make It(into ice cream), they will Eat" Like a Gourmet ebook: anti-palate cleansers of basil pesto served ribboned onto sweet lemon ice cream over a sliced foot-long on a bed of finely chopped onion?

or a small melon-ball-like scoop of frozen eggnog custard with Cinnabon-flavored bread served hard atop a layer of rounds of OMG--all beef or pork weiners on a crisp cow or pig-shaped waffle?

Is'nt this fun????

a hot dog infused ice cream sandwich has to be a cardinal one.
