Hot Dogs

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the humble banger. From spring barbecues through to Bonfire Night, hot dogs will never go out of style, but don't stop at just topping with ketchup or relish. Why not explore the ‘Worlds Pantry’? The choice of toppings is endless, and that’s what we love about a hot dog; they are a blank canvas onto which your culinary imagination can run wild.
