Oscar Mayer is selling Frozen Wiener Pops

Oscar Mayer is selling its first-ever “Cold Dog,” which is a POPSICLE.  It tastes like a hot dog, and they say it has “both refreshing and smokey, umami notes.”  And it’s topped with a “mustard swirl.”

If you’re looking for someone to blame for this, the idea dates back to an Instagram post on Oscar Mayer’s account a few months ago, where they asked their followers if it was “stupid or genius.”

Apparently, people said it was genius: A rep for Oscar Mayer said, “After the overwhelming fan excitement… it was a no-brainer to make [it] a reality.”

The “Cold Dog” is available at select Popbar locations, while supplies last.  They cost $2 a pop.  If you don’t know, Popbar is a chain of gelato shops.
