The Wienermobile is a 90-year tradition for the meat company, which is a subsidiary of the Kraft Heinz Company. It introduced its first version of a \u201chot dog on wheels\u201d in 1936, according to an Oscar Mayer fact sheet.<\/p>\n
Today\u2019s Wienermobiles are 11 feet tall, 27 feet long and 8 feet wide with hot dog-shaped dashboards.<\/p>\n
Appearances will include games, coupons, and a handout of Oscar Mayer\u2019s Wiener Whistles, according to Tripeer.<\/p>\n
These events aren\u2019t showing on Oscar Mayer\u2019s Wienermobile locator<\/a>, but Tripeer said that is due to a technical glitch.<\/p>\n In more hot dog news, Wienerschnitzel has opened what it calls its first-ever location on a military base, according to a news release from the Irvine-based fast food chain.<\/p>\n The location, which resembles a mall concession, is at Naval Base San Diego and serves authorized patrons including service members, civilian employees, and families. It is part of Wienerschnitzel\u2019s strategy to find nontraditional ways to \u201cmeet customers where they already are,\u201d chief development officer David Winter says in the news release.<\/p>\n Information: wienerschnitzel.com<\/a><\/p>\n
