The debate stems from a Swedesboro, New Jersey butcher shop that created a hotdog in the shape of a hamburger called the "Round Dog". Rastelli Foods Group started as a small butcher shop owned and operated by Raymond Rastelli. Now, the business sends meat to people around the globe, including this new Round Dog.
According to a poll, 84% agree that it's still a hotdog and 16% say it's not.
