double dog dare you


"double dog" dare you

Tony Packo's in Toledo, Ohio - made famous by Max Klinger on M*A*S*H is a fantastic place to grab a unique take on the hot dog, chili and potato salad.

The menu - much to my chagrin features a "DOUBLE DOG" - in all honesty I have to confess that in truth, the quotes here kinda work. You see, the regular dog is a tube-steak cut length-wise and half of it placed on a bun and served to you. The "Double Dog" is a whole sausage.

I think Tony has been reading our blog and waiting for this day just so he could say - "ah haa!"

  1. Mmmm. Tony Packo's. My dad lives near Toledo and brought Packo's with him when he visited in CA over Christmas. I still have a package of sausages and can of hot dog sauce waiting to be devoured - just need to get some more buns. Maybe this weekend. I'm hungry just thinking about it.

  2. Oh, and a jar of pickles and peppers, too. Can't forget those.

  3. It's generally acceptable to use quotation marks when saying a nickname or similar. Just like when they say someone's name and then aka "x".

    L2grammar.
