Jets vs. Colts & Nader vs. Handwerker
The Google News Archive has an article from 1969 about hot dog consumption during the first meeting between the Jets and Colts in Super Bowl III containing Nathan’s president Murray Handwerker’s response to Ralph Nader’s allegations of poor meat quality in hot dogs:
Nader has done some great things for safety in automobiles. I believe he said he would give up driving in cars. I get the impression he now intends to give up eating in New York.
The next thing you know he will no longer wear clothes because of defective labeling, and that could result in his total exposure.
The article also mentions Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Cook Book.
