5. Michigan Coney Island Hot Dog

People in the state of Michigan in general and in the city of Detroit specifically are very proud of their wieners. In fact, Michiganders believe that their state is the true birthplace of Coney Island hot dogs, while just about everyone else in the United States assumes that they're from New York.

Coney Island hot dogs traditionally feature white onions that have been diced, yellow mustard, and a chili made with extra meat and no beans or veggies. You could make the argument that a Chili Cheese Coney from Sonic Drive-In is an upgraded version due to the presence of cheddar cheese.
