"Dirty water" refers to the fact that the water looks dirty once the hot dogs are heated, because of some melted fat etc. floating. Hot dogs are pulled out of this hot "dirty" water . Has nothing to do with rumors of not changing the water, which makes no sense at all. Vendors would not lug around dirty water when they can dump it down a drain and refill where it's convenient. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/kosher-hotdogs/page/2#post-2963 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 09:04:26 -0500 flatrock 2963@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>I like the "rumor/fact" comment.

It's great. I don't know about their hotdogs, but I would expect it to be as good as the rest of their food.

I had several hot dogs fom the kosher oasis cart and theyre not only delicious but very clean as well. The cart looks spotless inside and whenever i pass by i see the workers cleaning it. I highly recommend kosher oasis to everyone. Try it and ull see what i mean. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/kosher-hotdogs#post-2769 Fri, 21 Aug 2009 16:42:19 -0500 soupster 2769@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>All the vendors that I have asked in Central Park have vociferously told me they only sell kosher hot dogs. I've never actually seen the packaging but they have all been adamant about it so take that as a starting point I guess. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/kosher-hotdogs#post-2739 Fri, 21 Aug 2009 09:30:38 -0500 NOLA Steve 2739@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>Kosher Oasis is the only certified Kosher dog that I know of from a street cart in the city. While I've never tried it due to my lack of interest in hot dogs, I can tell you that it is as dirty water as the rest. </p> <p>The simple characteristic of being an "all-beef hotdog" does not satisfy the requirements of Kashrut. All-beef is necessary, but not sufficient. Certification and all-beef = Kosher. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/kosher-hotdogs#post-2737 Fri, 21 Aug 2009 09:09:16 -0500 jnas08 2737@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>It's not from a cart, but Mendy's (34th &#38; Park) is doing a Recession special: 99 cent hot dogs, 50 cent toppings (fried onions, cole slaw, etc.), and 50 cent mini-knishes. At that price it's pretty worthwhile (and just as cheap as a street cart), nothing else in there is really Midtown Lunch range. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/kosher-hotdogs#post-2735 Fri, 21 Aug 2009 08:17:54 -0500 pigiron 2735@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>Hey Chuck, why on earth would you not think the poster was serious?
