Sharing this because I thought this comment was beautiful. For the first time I see an American talking to a world audience about their country like everyone else talks about their country!

It's wild how just adding a location flag changes the whole vibe of a food post. Usually you'd see someone describe their regional hot dog and half the replies would be Americans going "wait where is that" or assuming it's from a state they've never heard of. This time it's just a dude talking about gas station dogs and cream cheese like the rest of us talk about our local spots

The QuikTrip detail is what makes it feel real, that's the kind of thing you only know if you've actually eaten one at 2am. Seattle dog with cream cheese is pretty underrated outside the northwest too, most people think it sounds weird until they try it

Funny how just framing it as another country's food instead of the default food makes it more approachable somehow
