One year since the Hot Dog Straw’s famed
inception, the brand introduces a limited-edition specialty sipper
of its own, replicating the look and feel of a real Oscar Mayer hot
dog
One year ago today, the viral ‘Hot Dog Straw’ video 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 enjoy 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—because nothing is as fun and
enjoyable as a delicious hot dog.

Using a delicious Oscar Mayer wiener as its muse, the Oscar
Mayer Hot Dog Straw mirrors the same size and color of a delicious,
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.
Whether you believe that a hot dog is a sandwich or have strong
opinions on the condiments that belong on a delicious dog, one
piece of etiquette remains the same: hot dogs are served on a bun.
Originally captured by “New York Nico,” the viral ‘Hot Dog Straw’
changed the rules forever, vindicating the 54 percent of people who
agree that beer is the ideal beverage to pair with a hot dog1 and
providing them with an easy shortcut.
“While the viral ‘Hot Dog Straw’ divided the internet, we salute
the brave man who paved the way to enjoy his hot dog as he wishes,”
said Kelsey Rice, Associate Director, Oscar Mayer. “Taking
inspiration from a classic Oscar Mayer dog, the silicone Hot Dog
Straw is designed for optimal sipping, and we hope it brings a
friendly reminder that we don’t need to take enjoying a delicious
hot dog seriously. Some things are just meant to be fun.”
A natural extension of the brand’s iconic “Keep it Oscar”
platform, the meaty innovation is sparking smiles and bringing
levity to fans’ everyday food routines. “Keep it Oscar” empowers
all to enjoy themselves with seriously delicious meats, including
Oscar Mayer’s 100% Beef Franks, Wieners, Cheese Dogs and more.
