When John Boy lived in New York City, I wonder if he ever eat a hot dog from one of those hot dog cart vendors that you see in movies and TV? I bet they never had hotdogs either at home. Its possible they sold them at fairs or carnivals.

I can see Ben looking at opening a fastfood franchise as a great money making opportunity and I could easily imagine Elizabeth working part-time at fast food restaurant while in high school

Everything they would have needed would be readily available including the casings.

I thought they went to the Baptist weenie roast and Ben chased the girls.

I was in error. They did, indeed, have hot dogs. I just finished watching The Genius and, at Lyle's first supper at the Waltons, hot dogs were on the menu (and the table).

I'll bet all the Waltons would have enjoyed Kentucky Fried Chicken. My grandpa (1899-1986) was all but addicted to it. I can still hear him frequently saying "Isn't it about time we visited the Colonel?"

I've seen both "Texas Fried Chicken" and "Maryland Fried Chicken" in the Orlando FL area. Not "Virginia Fried Chicken" so far, but there may be 50 of these for all I know.

It's interesting how Kentucky Fried Chicken evolved into just KFC. The Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurants around here are all branded as KFC on their outside signage and food packaging. Wikipedia says that the company officially adopted KFC in 1991 in attempt to distance themselves from the unhealthy connotations of fried food. Here in northeast Ohio, Kentucky Fried Chicken was called Kenny King's. Kenny King was an actual guy and he had the sole franchisee rights in the area and he had around 9 or 10 restaurants. They were all much larger than the typical modern KFC. They sold Kentucky Fried Chicken for eat in or take out. The sit down restaurant was also a normal restaurant with assorted non-chicken menu items not normally sold at a Kentucky Fried Chicken. Growing up, my sister, brother and I were allowed to choose what restaurant we would go to for our birthday. I would almost always choose Kenny King's. I loved their spaghetti! In the early 1990's all the Kenny King's were closed down or scaled down to only be KFC's. People of my generation and older still say Kenny King's when we talk about KFC. The young folks have no idea what we are talking about. A couple old ads... The actual Kenny King's we would go to. It was torn down and a new smaller KFC replaced it.

I grew up in a small Ontario town on the shores of Lake Ontario. The next larger town to the east had a KFC. It certainly was a treat when Mom and Dad splurged and bought a bucket. After a few years, a competitor opened up in my home town. It was Dixie Lee and it was really good chicken. It closed up shop several decades ago, but I just Googled it and it is still in business in a few places in Ontario and elsewhere.
