When traveling it is not often easy to stick to one's healthy diet so compromises must be made in order to not get so hungry that you pullover at the nearest gas station and load up on moon pies, Doritos, Starburst, and beef jerky. This past weekend found the family on a day trip to the Charleston, SC area and a stop at Jack's Cosmic Dogs, a space themed hot dog stand with giant rockets on the front of the building and a fifties spin. I was a little concerned that I would be eating a but full of mustard a sauerkraut. This establishment however catered to my non meet eating sensibilities with this: The Bunny in a Bun: grilled carrot with blue cheese slaw and sweet potato mustard.
It was served in a white bread bun probably riddled with high fructose corn syrup, and the cole slaw was made with less than desirable mayonnaise. All of that aside, it was pretty good. I am now trying to figure out how to translate this into a raw hot dog-ish type treat. Perhaps I can marinate the carrots and make raw slaw with no mayo. But what to do for the bun? Maybe if I ever get a dehydrator a flat-bread will suffice. I will let you know if I come up with something brilliant.
