Pile On The Toppings For National Hot Dog Day

Hot diggity dog, it's National Hot Dog Day. Whether you're walking down the boardwalk, watching your favorite baseball team or relaxing at a backyard barbecue, hot dogs are always invited to the party.

The topping possibilities are endless, from classic ketchup and mustard to more adventurous options like salsa, steak or cabbage slaw. Dogs even come in different colors these days; check out this all-black hot dog served at IKEA in Japan. For an out-of-the-box treat, DBGB and Morgenstern's Finest Ice Cream collaborated earlier this month to create a new beef-infused frozen treat that looks like a hot dog but tastes like a dessert.

We scrolled through Instagram to find the, er, hottest pictures out there to get you in the mood.
