Nationals’ DMV hot dog forwards the baseball food arms race

It’s everything you could want from the region, all on one bun.

Going to the DMV is one of the worst experiences a human can have, but EATING a “DMV Hot Dog” at a Nationals game could be the best idea anyone could have.

The gut-busting food item is available at Nationals games, continuing the amazing MLB arms race for the biggest and most decadent ballpark food in America. It honors the regional culinary exploits of D.C., Maryland and Virginia by boasting a footlong half smoke sausage, covered in crab cheese and topped with Virginia ham.

Each of the elements is delicious in its own right and they’re probably pretty good together. There aren’t many items that allow you to eat four different animals at once, but this one lets us. Well played Nats.
