Every hot dog, stuck in a bun, is a canvas. And come summertime, millions of Americans become backyard food artists, covering their dogs with inspired combinations of toppings, from the canonical (relish, mustard, ketchup) to the totally avant-garde (peanut butter, bananas, Parmesan cheese). Knowing that Bon Appetit readers were likely to be the most inspired patio Picassos out there, we took to Twitter and Facebook to ask about everyone's favorite hot dog topping. And we got some great replies:
