Load of tosh. Cocktail franks have had this nickname for many decades. Nothing new to see here.
How about some real news, instead of trying to instigate false outrage among idle people.
I also have never heard of them. Also, agreeing with a previous writer, can't be a 'cult favourite' here. Been to USA 4 tumes and have never seen them there eirher.
And .. Sydney?
Upshot, I don't give a hoot, or cackle!
