Hot Dog (item)



A Hot Dog is an item first seen in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. In Glitzville, a hot dog stand sells the item for ten coins. The item heals five HP and five FP. As part of a trouble posted at the Trouble Center, if Mario takes two Hot Dogs and a Mousse Cake to Bub-ulber in Petalburg, the Bub-ulb will give the plumber a useful Dried Bouquet.

The only other known form of Hot Dog was the Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness, a Hot Dog made with an egg from a "southern island". The Yoshi Egg Hoggle planned to make this Hot Dog out of, though, didn't cooperate (eventually bursting into the Yoshi Kid), resulting in no Southern Fried Egg Dogs of Tastiness being sold.

The Hot Dog later appeared in Super Paper Mario as a recipe. Dyllis can mix a Power Steak and a Fresh Veggie to create a Hot Dog (though how she is able to make a pork tube out of a slab of steak is a complete mystery). It restores twenty HP and cures poison.
