Back in the summer of 1963—before avocado toast, before TikTok dances, and long before men wore skinny jeans—Earl Jenkins made the most controversial decision in the history of Hotdogs: he left his wife, Doris, for a Skeeterdog.

Now, Doris wasn’t perfect, but she could make a meatloaf that could stop a man’s heart both figuratively and medically. They had been married 12 years, shared two kids, and even had matching lawn chairs. But one fateful afternoon, Earl walked into Skeeter’s World Famous Hotdogs, and there it was—steaming on the counter, smothered in chili, slaw, and onions—like a heavenly vision wrapped in a warm bun.

They say the first bite changed him. He didn’t just eat the Skeeterdog—he fell in love. Earl claimed it “looked at him” in a way Doris hadn’t since the Eisenhower administration.

For the next few weeks, Earl was “working late” more often than not. Doris got suspicious when she found chili stains on his collar and coleslaw in his breast pocket. One night she confronted him:

“Earl, is there another woman?”

He looked her dead in the eye and said, “No, Doris… it’s another dog.”

By the following Monday, Earl had packed his hat, a change of socks, and moved into a booth at Skeeter’s. He said the Skeeterdog “understood” him, never nagged, and was “always hot and ready to please.”

The scandal rocked the town. The preacher called it “a moral crisis.” The mayor called it “bad for tourism.” But Earl didn’t care. He’d sit there every day, gazing lovingly at his Skeeterdog, whispering sweet nothings like, “Don’t you ever change, baby.”

Eventually, Doris moved on and remarried— Earl, on the other hand, remained loyal to Skeeter’s until his dying day, proving once and for all that while love may fade, chili and slaw are forever.
