One year ago, the viral "Hot Dog Straw" video, originally captured by "New York Nico," became an internet marvel, generating more than nine billion views on TikTok. The video sparked nationwide shock and awe that one would use a hot dog as a straw, let alone as a vessel to consume an ice-cold beer. In honor of its one-year anniversary, Oscar Mayer is commemorating this key moment in hot dog history by showing fans they don’t have to take food rules so seriously.
Using an Oscar Mayer wiener as its muse, the Oscar Mayer Hot Dog Straw mirrors the same size and color of a cooked dog and is made using food-safe soft silicone to replicate the feel of a real Oscar Mayer hot dog. The Hot Dog Straw is available for pre-order nationwide on oscarmayer.com/hotdogstraw while supplies last.
