Does Another Jersey Hot Dog Icon Deserve a Historic Collectible? VOTE

Does the hot dog (not the Italian one) get a place in New Jersey’s Historic Foodie Wooden Collectible series?
What about Rutt’s Hut, or any other of a handful of iconic hot dog eateries?

The Mr. Local History Project researchers LOVE stories about Jersey food. It’s not automatic. They have to be voted in to get into the wooden village with a painted wooden collectible. Four iconic Jersey eateries have made the grade. What about a hot dog joint?

The Mr. Local History Project (MLH) non-profit volunteer organization has been preserving and promoting local history in the Somerset Hills since the organization was established in 2019. The all-volunteer group started a wooden miniature keepsake program to share history, and artwork, that now has become part of New Jersey’s local history and helps Somerset Hills historic icons grow as part of the statewide New Jersey Historic Village Collection on Facebook.
