It’s the 4th of July! And you know what that means? Food! Really, really good food!
Most Americans eat hamburgers and hot dogs on the 4th, but grilled meats and veggies, potato and mac salad, corn on the cob, are always popular, too.
According to Reader’s Digest, Americans will consume about 150 million hot dogs today. They wrote, “To put the full number in context, if you took 150 million hot dogs and lined them up one in front of the other, they’d reach from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., more than five times over!”
What will it be for you today? A cheeseburger? A hot dog? Some pasta salad and baked beans? Some corn and ice cream? Or perhaps you’re not doing anything special for the 4th today and you’re just eating your regular meal (come on, not even a hot dog?!).

You can vote multiple times in this poll, so select all answers that apply. And when you’re finished voting, please leave a comment and tell us what you’re having today. Make us hungry!

Bring me the lobster. Yup on today’s menu.
Our DIL is half-Korean, and I’m always excited when she invites us over for Korean-style BBQ!

Dungeness crab of course. Opening day was the 3rd. Chock full of large Dungeness crabs. Yummy.
Good old Wisconsin fish fry.
We are packing up so we can head home this afternoon. Probably have warmed up leftovers from the home freezer when we get un-packed.
Steaks and baked potatoes with a salad
Tacos.
More vegetarian options, please
Thank you for the question, RV Travel! So far, I have had potato salad for lunch. DW has listed a tentative dinner menu that includes baked beans and potato salad. I guess we’ll see where we end. Have a great Independence Day and safe travels!
