Corn dog day

My two youngest children really like corn dogs, but I have to say, they are not for me. In Japan they are actually called "American Dog". Reportedly they are slightly different to corn dogs and thus American Dogs are unique to Japan. 

An "American dog" is a skewered sausage covered in a pancake-like batter and deep-fried. It is typically eaten with ketchup or mustard.

October 9th annuity is American Dog Day. The date comes from a reading of 10/9 which can be read as "dog"; "dog (10) gu (9)." The day was established by Furuta Foods Co., Ltd. that manufactures and sells products such as corn dogs and chicken nuggets. On this day they promote American Dogs at convenience stores and supermarkets.
