- 1:25Speaker 1: Well. The v Wieners makes a little more a little more.
- 1:28Speaker 4: Sense, but still it's not gonna I would go, I
- 1:34Speaker 4: move the needle.
- 1:34Speaker 1: I would go with faux francs Franks.
- 1:37Speaker 2: Yeah, fux and it sounds fancy like they're going to
- 1:41Speaker 2: be high.
- 1:42Speaker 1: End Franks Vegans f A U X and make sure
- 1:49Speaker 1: the F both f's are capitalized, and maybe some sort
- 1:53Speaker 1: of some sort of fancy script.
- 1:56Speaker 4: Now my next question is is he going to sell
- 1:59Speaker 4: regular hot dogs?
- 2:01Speaker 1: No, I would doubt just vegan. I would think very nat.
- 2:04Speaker 1: You don't want to. You don't want to contaminate the
- 2:06Speaker 1: vegan hot dogs.
- 2:07Speaker 4: You'd have two with the two grills, two different ways.
- 2:11Speaker 1: To prepare them. I would like to buy a vegan
- 2:13Speaker 1: hot dog, but I don't want to even smell those
- 2:17Speaker 1: real wheenies. I don't want to. I think maybe you
- 2:22Speaker 1: know it might help Chris if you if you brought
- 2:25Speaker 1: us some hot dogs, it might inspire you to try
- 2:30Speaker 1: a vegan hot dog and see what.
- 2:32Speaker 2: It's it's I haven't had a regular I've certainly never
- 2:35Speaker 2: had a vegan hot dog, but I haven't had a
- 2:36Speaker 2: regular hot dog in a long time.
- 2:40Speaker 1: I I love a good hot I had when when
- 2:43Speaker 1: I was in Chicago had Chicago dogs. Those were really

- 2:59Speaker 2: building up at the U and to reward herself for
- 3:04Speaker 2: taking a test she had how she got through the test,
- 3:07Speaker 2: she said, if I if I do well on this test,
- 3:10Speaker 2: I'm going to go celebrate with a jay dog. And
- 3:13Speaker 2: she went downstairs to the Union building and and they
- 3:17Speaker 2: were closed and no more Jay dogs. So she actually
- 3:20Speaker 2: got in her car and drove to a Jade Dogs
