The Weinermobile is in Philly this weekend! Ok, they're called Frankmobiles now (probably for obvious reasons), but I can't let it go.

The Oscar Meyer Wienermobile, now Frankmobile, is in town! Check it out at a few Acme Markets in the Northeast this weekend. You can check the"Where My Dogs" tracker on their website to see where the Frankmobile "Meat Fleet" is headed next. They've already made a few stops in Delco.

Here's this weekend's schedule:

Saturday, July 29th 10am-1pm

Acme Markets

Saturday, July 29th 2pm-5pm

Acme Markets

Sunday, July 30th 10am-1pm

Along with the new vehicle name, the drivers are now called “Frankfurters.”You can apply to BE a Frankfurter or "Hotdogger" HERE. Stop by this weekend and say hello, and hear some of their great hotdog puns. According to the Delco Times, they refer to their seatbelts as "meat belts".

You can also apply to have the Frankmobile at your next event. I think it'd make the perfect addition to your fall wedding. Just sayin'. Request HERE.

And if you need something to listen to (in addition to BEN FM) this weekend, they also have a 100% BEEF FRANKS Playlist on Spotify. Aretha FRANKlin, FRANK Sinatra, ect...

The (Frankmobile) Weinermobile is in Philly! Don't forget to ask if they still hand out whistles!

Here Are The Delaware Valley’s Favorite Drunk Foods

Have you ever wondered what each state's favorite drunk foods are? This awesome study by Online-Casinos.com reveals just that.

The drunk munchies are real. You know, that feeling when you drink too much, and you simply MUST eat food. You get in your Uber or opt to walk, to the nearest open place to eat. Usually, you get fries, pizza, chicken tenders, or things of the like. You just want something quick, fried, and delicious. Something salty, rich, and super-satiating. It's one of the best-drunk experiences ever!

The team at Online-Casinos surveyed people who get drunk rather often to determine what foods they turn to in order to satisfy drunk cravings. They asked people across the U.S. and Canada. It's actually pretty enlightening to see which states go for what.

The most popular drunk food across the board: burgers. But, that option doesn't seem to be Delaware, New Jersey, or Pennsylvania's go-to.

So, what are our go-to's? What is the ultimate drunk food in each of the Delaware Valley states? What makes us tick? It's actually more interesting than you'd think. You wouldn't guess Pennsylvania's at all, I presume. Let's see, though.

Here are the Delaware Valley's favorite drunk foods:

Mozzarella sticks.

They're crispy. They're cheesy. They're greasy. They're a drunk person's dream. This is a really sensible choice. You also don't havwe to go anywhere to get these necessarily. You can just throw some frozen ones in the oven/air fryer at home! They're easily accessible and oh-so good for the drunk munchies.

New Report Finds Chinese Restaurant Food Unhealthy

Chinese food.

Of course! This makes a ton of sense. With takeout Chinese restaurants open pretty late, of course people hit them up for some drunk snacking. The food is super super filling and very oily. It's a good hangover preventer. You may need an antacid in the morning depending upon how much you eat, though.

Pierogies.

Now this is a huge surprise. But like with any list, we as Philadelphians have to remember that there is more to Pennsylvania than our area. Apparently they're doing some crazy things west of us. Like eating pierogies as drunk food. I would think pizza, but that's fine. Honestly, it's not a bad choice. Oily, filling, and super yummy.
