In North Carolina we're a fan of chili, slaw, mustard and onions on our burgers and dogs which, minus the onions, I never say no to.
When I'm back in New York where I grew up though I just go with spicy brown mustard.

ketchup! Of course, I put ketchup on my hot dog if for no other reason than to annoy people here in Chicago. I cannot do Chicago style dogs. The thought of celery salt makes my stomach turn. I do, however, love relish and onions.
Know what else? I've never had an Italian beef. I should probably be kicked out of 60657.
This thread makes me long for baseball season or...

Wish they had tomatoes and cheddar cheese. Costco dogs would be a winner.

I'm a spicy mustard and onions guy...but whenever I transit thru DTW (a lot recently) I have found myself stopping into Coney Island and ordering a Chicago...definitely agree - no ketchup!
Finally got my teen daughter (15) to switch to mustard only...still working on the tween son (12)!

I believe this is the definitive view on putting ketchup on hot dogs. Some harsh language.

I remember seeing this clip as well years ago.
I for one love just ketchup on a hot dog. I wonder what the logic was with that script?

Here in Denmark, the standard is:
Mustard (hot, not sweet)
Ketchup
Finely chopped onion
French fried onion (the dry stuff you can get in tubs)
Pickled cucumber (thinly sliced and pickled in a vinegar/sugar mix)
Hot, sweet, salty, sour, meaty, soft and crispy, all in one packet.
Personally, on the rare occassion I go for a hotdog here, it is "french": the bread has a hole from the end to slide the hotdog inside, and I prefer "french dressing", which is sort of dijonnaise like. As a whole also much less likely to cause a mess!

Reminded me of the French hot dog that they sell to take away a lot of places in Paris - baked in bread with cheese. It's been several years since I've had one (don't see any reason for anything other than ham, cheese and butter on a baguette from that kind of place), but I don't think you eat them with any condiments, just the cheese.
I'm a Chicago dog aficionado, but at Auntie Anne's, baked in that sweet pretzel dough, just mustard!

I recall a hot dog place near school when I was in 7th to 8th grade. Served them exactly like that. The hot dogs, that is, not hamburgers. And yes, those hot dogs were good. Best I've ever had.

Lately I've been enjoying 'em simple, with just Sriracha.
But back in college we had a legendary hot dog cart that had insane toppings. I liked the Chips Plus: barbecue sauce, goopy neon-orange cheese sauce, crushed potato chips, and Old Bay.
Edit: I looked up the menu to find my other favorite. The Andrew: potato salad, mustard, bacon, and Ranch dressing. I'm amazed I survived eating those things.
