When I was a kid, I put mayo on hot dogs. Then my tastes changed. Hell, now I don't even eat hot dogs. But there's nothing wrong with doing so. It's just your taste.
Frankly, if you've seen all the different ways that people eat hot dogs (including those mentioned in this column), you'd know that there is no "right" set of condiments. People do any damned thing. For example, there's Chicago-style, which practically includes putting a salad on top of the dog including big spears of dill pickle and even serrano chiles sometimes. I've also heard of taking a hot dog, wrapping it in raw bacon, and deep-frying it, then serving it in a bun. HARD CORE!
Yes, hot dogs are basically bland. That's why people can (and should) go so many different ways with the condiments.
