On the way to Alhambra the other day, I looked over at some sort of gathering and saw it: the pinnacle of iconic advertising - The Wienermobile! It is shaped like a hot dog on a bun that is used to promote and advertise Oscar Mayer products. The Wienermobile was created in 1936 by Oscar's nephew, Carl G. Mayer, and variants are still used by Oscar Mayer today. Drivers of the Wienermobiles are known as Hotdoggers and often hand out toy whistles shaped as replicas of the Wienermobile, known as Wienerwhistles.
Wienerrific! Now if I only had a huge diced onion and a tub of deli mustard!
