“III – A Discordian is Required during his early Illumination to Go Off Alone & Partake Joyously of a Hot Dog on a Friday; this Devotive Ceremony to Remonstrate against the popular Paganisms of the Day: of Catholic Christendom (no meat on Friday), of Judaism (no meat of Pork), of Hindic Peoples (no meat of Beef), of Buddhists (no meat of animal), and of Discordians (no Hot Dog Buns).”
Day 19: Eat a hot dog, but no hot dog buns
Eris, Matriarch and Goddess of Discordianism, does ask on this day to partake of a hot dog. Discordianism is a curious thing, some say it was founded by Robert A. Wilson, while others say it was founded by the hive collective of rats.
The curious text that does tell about the sacred laws of the hot dog can be found here
Hail Eris!
