Corn dogs, those deep-fried, skewered delights, are a classic American street food, most commonly associated with state fairs, boardwalks and carnivals. The exact origins are a bit fuzzy, with multiple claims to its invention. Some say German Texan sausage-makers introduced it in the 1920s, while others attribute its creation to Stanley S. Jenkins who received a patent in 1929 for a "Combined Dipping, Cooking, and Article Holding Apparatus," designed to deep-fry food on a stick. Whoever truly invented it, one thing is certain - the corn dog has been a beloved American staple since the early 20th century, symbolizing simple, nostalgic, and fun-filled food.
