Flo's Special Hot Dog Relish

Flo's Hot Dogs, is located on Rte. 1 in the seacoast area of Maine, in Capeneddick. This little shack has "THE BEST" hot dogs in the world, and has been serving these hot dogs for years... Standing room only inside where the line goes out the door from the time they open, till the time they close... People order 5-6 hot dogs a piece, if that says anything!!! They serve their hot dogs with this sweet and slightly hot relish along with mustard, or with mayonnaise, or with "The Works" which is all three plus celery salt over the top. I have had the pleasure of eating a few of these dogs in my time, and all I can say is MMM m mmm MMMMMM M! The secret to these FABULOUS Hot Dogs is the relish or "sauce" as some call it...
