			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=j5wyAAAAIBAJ&#038;sjid=4egFAAAAIBAJ&#038;pg=4382,4251414">Google News Archive has an article</a> from 1969 about hot dog consumption during the first meeting between the Jets and Colts in Super Bowl III containing Nathan&#8217;s president Murray Handwerker&#8217;s response to Ralph Nader&#8217;s allegations of poor meat quality in hot dogs:</p>
<blockquote><p>
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.</p>
<p>The next thing you know he will no longer wear clothes because of defective labeling, and that could result in his total exposure.
</p></blockquote>
<p>The article also mentions <a href="http://eatfeats.com/nathans-famous-hot-dog-cook-book.html">Nathan&#8217;s Famous Hot Dog Cook Book</a>. </p>
<p><b>Trivia Time</b> The Jets&#8217; linebacker coach in Super Bowl III was Buddy Ryan, father of current head coach Rex Ryan, a <a href="http://twitpic.com/z4asp">possible entrant</a> in the 2010 Nathan&#8217;s finals. </p>
<p>The Colts&#8217; head coach in Super Bowl III was Don Shula, who would later lead the Miami Dolphins to an undefeated season and found a chain of steak houses offering a <a href="http://www.donshula.com/48oz.php">48 ounce steak challenge</a> which has been completed almost 35,000 times. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/brooklyn/jeter_plays_bronx_bummer_for_movie_3qdPn6QooUGivifiCf7MFN">New York Post has a gallery of Derek Jeter</a> filming the Will Ferrell movie &#8220;The Other Guys&#8221; at Nathan&#8217;s Famous in Coney Island yesterday. The movie has the following plot summary:</p>
<blockquote><p>
 In the comedy, Ferrell and notorious Red Sox fan Mark Wahlberg play cops who spend their careers as desk jockeys. The two are permanently benched after Wahlberg&#8217;s character wrongly shoots Jeter in the leg after seeing him walking around with a bat, sources said.</p>
<p>The scene shot at Nathan&#8217;s takes place years later, when a down-on-his-luck Jeter &#8212; wearing a filthy hobo&#8217;s jacket and sporting stringy gray hair &#8212; encounters the crime-fighting duo.
</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>
Hot Dog Salad Dressing. For six servings, grind eight hot dogs with one-half teaspoon dry mustard, two tablespoons milk, one tablespoon pickle relish and one-third cup of mayo. Think about that for a second. That&#8217;s 1.3 hot dogs per salad serving. This is nothing more than a ploy to sell hot dogs.</p></blockquote>
