Wiener

A wiener is a long, thin pink sausage made from smoked cow, pig, chicken, soya, or other plant matter. The wiener is also known as a hotdog or frankfurter, which in the USA may be abbreviated to just frank. These can be grilled or boiled and are often served as fast food, wrapped in a long thin white roll and topped with condiments such as mustard, onions, relish, or ketchup.

The capital city of Austria is Vienna, which in the German language is known as Wien, with the W pronounced like the letter v in English. A Wiener in German is a resident or citizen of Wien, as well a characteristic local sausage. The shape of this item lends it to anatomical references, particularly in the notorious case of images sent by politician Antony Weiner, whose name also rhymes with wiener.
