[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]尽管在2008年各个行业都显得萧条，不过热狗的销量却增长了2%。是什么东西让这美国人喜欢的食品如何经受得住经济衰退呢？Adriene Hill从热狗文化的中心找到了答案。 [/font]

[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]Gus Paschalis: A Chicago hot dog is an all beef hotdog on a poppy seed bun, and there's mustard, onions, relish, pickle, there's sport peppers, tomato and celery salt.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]That's Gus Paschalis. He owns and runs a hotdog stand called, I kid you not, "Weiner and Still Champion" in nearby Evanston.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]Paschalis: Most people would say a hole in the wall, mom and pop type of restaurant.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]It's definitely a little divey. But you can get a dog and hand cut french fries that are fried to order for $3.50. Not bad for a meal that contains most of the major food groups. Turns out the Chicago dog has a good "pedigree" for surviving tough times.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]The Chicago style hotdog, loaded with veggies and condiments, got started back during the late 1920s. You could get your meal on a bun for a nickel. At least one hotdog stand called it a "depression sandwich." And while it may be overselling it a little to say sales now are "steaming" or "red hot," these days at Weiner and Still Champion, they're good.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]Paschalis: We're actually doing better than we were doing last year.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]The dinner time rush is pretty impressive for a hotdog stand. Melody Vogel's waiting on an order of french fries. She says she still has a job -- she works at a nearby church -- but she's more careful about how she spends money on food.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]Melody Vogel: I'm trying to be a lot more conservative in what I buy. You know, I grew up in a big family so I'm used to the make spaghetti and eat it for a week kind of stuff -- make soup and add water.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]She eats out less and she's more likely to go for cheaper options when she does eat out.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]Darren Tristano: Consumers are trading down. Rather than going to, let's say, casual dining like an Applebees and paying at the $12-$13 level, they're shifting down to limited service.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]Darren Tristano is an executive vice president at Technomic Incorporated, a food industry research firm.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]He says hotdog stands are set to capitalize on food trends -- they're cheap, the food is fresh, customizable, portable, and he says, Chicago hot dogs taste really good.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]All of which makes them a strong contender for a great recession meal.
