They're all good, but I prefer pizza the most out of the three ^^ I guess, you have the various toppings you can have on a pizza.. Although, the same can be said about the other two, but I just like pizza more lol

Depends on if you mean with other things or on their own.

Pizza. Hands down. I can barely stand hot dogs, and hamburgers I can do without, but I could seriously eat pizza for almost every meal.

Pizza, especially if it's got lots of vegetables. You can't really put vegetables on hamburgers or hotdogs.

Probably pizza but a homemade burger is also pretty awesome.

Pizza silly. Since the kitten discussion, I haven't the stomach to eat meat outside of fish :P. That stated, my favorite food would be salmon, lovely salmon that flakes in your mouth. Cod is good too, and Tilapea makes my teeth jump for joy.

That stated, I don't eat only fish, I would have to say my second favorite food at the moment is a veggie gyro.

It's really a mood thing with me. XD All of the above are good, but there are some days when all I really want is a hot dog. XD There are other days when a cheeseburger sounds like the greatest thing in the world, and there are still other days when the idea of ordering a pizza gets me super stoked. XD

That being said though, I would say that pizza is the most versatile of the mentioned foods, and is also the most delicious if you have it with like, basil and oregano and whole tomatoes and feta cheese and stuff. Or pineapple. Or chicken. So yeah, basically pizza is the most awesome overall, just because of how many sorts of delicious you can make it be. XD

Yes you can.

hotdogs: grilled onions, chop up tomatoes and pickles.

Hamburgers: grilled onions, slice tomatoes, lettuce and pickles.

That is what I put on them and it is good. The other thing that I put on hotdogs is making homemade chill for the hotdogs and then have chill, cole slaw on a hot dog.

Pizza: chop up tomatoes, garlic and black pepper. Then I sometime add grill chicken to the items above.

None of those really taste like vegetables to me. Unless by peppers you mean bell peppers, which I have never seen in a hamburger or hotdog.

Wait, beets? Who did you see putting beets on their hamburger/hotdog?

...Hungry Jacks (Burger King) for one.
You can definitely have vegetables on hamburgers. I'm not sure it would work on hot-dogs, except shredded lettuce.

But...just 'cuz they don't taste like vegetables doesn't mean they aren't. Tomatoes and lettuce are very much vegetables, I mean, they're in salads. I do mean bell peppers, and they are sometimes on hamburgers and hot dogs...in fact, I had an ostrich burger at the NC State Fair the other day that had onions and bell peppers on it. Peppers are also sometimes put on polish or italian sausages, and also on hot dogs occasionally...plus, certain types of relish have peppers in it.

And Australians sometimes put beet slices on their hamburgers. Weirds me out too. Not all of 'em do, just some of 'em.

As for me, I say, why choose between them? Have them all! Like have a hamburger AND a hot dog, like in this:

Or combine pizza and a hamburger!

Or combine pizza and a hamburger in a different way!

Or combine ALL THREE!

Not gonna lie though, I would probably try (a smaller version of) this, just to see what it was like. XD But not the rest of them; the rest are just gross. XD

I've never really liked hotdogs... Hamburgers and pizza are good just about every day, though.

Pizza represents the most variety out of all of the choices. Though I love a good burger. And I don't mind a Hebrew National once in awhile.

Actually, I'd try the foods Nate posted, but as I don't wish to die just yet, I'd go for much smaller portions.

Yes, we have beetroot on some hamburgers, here in Australia. I don't like beetroot but it tastes great in a burger.

For me, ti's really a toss-up between burgers and pizza. I can (and have) OD'd on pizza, and not been able to eat it for a month or so, and that's when I love mah burgers. With everything!

It takes a special hot dog to get me to love it (chicago-style Vienna, please!)

That hamdog looks so good I wanna ask it out on a date.
Seriously, hot dogs are a lot harder to get creative with than hamburgers or pizza. I mean, besides the standard hot dog or the chili dog, variation is usually in the meat itself. I like the kind of sausage with melted cheese inside.
But, and I wanna be serious for a moment, the ONE THING that's absolutely an UNFORGIVEABLE SIN against hot dogs, is to boil them. You just don't do it.

You can put Bacon Bits in salad. Does that mean bacon is a vegetable?

An even more unforgiveable sin then using caps, is telling me what I shouldn't do in cooking a hot dog.

Grilling them are fine, if you have are sausage meat hot dogs. Where for me, I have to eat low sodium hot dogs and they just don't cook well on the grill and boiling them are the way to go.

Actually, this isn't entirely true. If you want to go that route, eggplants, squash, cucumbers (and pickles), peppers, zucchini/squash, and corn are fruits.

Yes. If you call a tomato a fruit, you're calling corn a fruit too. That's just weird.

The problem is that "vegetable" is not a scientific word, it's a culinary term. As such, since "vegetable" means nothing outside of cooking, then cooking is the only place to figure out what it is. So let's do something. Let's look at the Supreme Court of the United States. Specifically, Nix v. Hedden where the status of a tomato as a fruit or a vegetable was heard.

This may sound like a stupid thing to take to the Supreme Court, but it was actually very important. At the time, the Tariff Act of March 3, 1883 required a tax to be paid on imported vegetables, but not fruit. Basically Hedden, the port collector, was requiring people to pay a tax on tomatoes. The Nix family argued that since tomatoes were a fruit, they were exempt from the tax.

The Supreme Court ruled (unanimously) that while technically the tomato was, botanically speaking, a fruit, that as far as cooking was concerned, it was a vegetable since vegetables are usually used in main courses, as opposed to fruits which are usually used in desserts. Thus, the tax did apply to tomatoes, as they are vegetables.

Nix v. Hedden has been cited in other Supreme Court cases, not about tomatoes specifically, but in regards to the fact that the dictionary is not the final authority as to the definition of words.

Actually, the one thing that's an unforgivable sin against hot dogs is to put ketchup on them. Dirty Harry made that very clear, and if you ask for ketchup on your hot dog in many US cities, prepare to be glared at or even stared at like you just walked off an alien spaceship.

Seriously just...don't put ketchup on hot dogs. It's the worst.
GROSSEST THING EVERRRR. D8

Oh wait, I didn't know it was opposite day! *ahem* You're right Corrie, that IS the grossest thing ever! I certainly wouldn't eat two of them, that's for sure, because I am so skinny. And good-looking. What would be the worst is having a cute girl with me. I'd sure hate to have a cute girl! And I definitely wouldn't drink Mountain Dew to wash it down, because it's the worst drink ever.

Anyway, I'm off to not play video games because they're boring and dumb. Or I could choose to not watch Kamen Rider, because toku is stupid and I hate it!

Be gone, foul beast!

Some dogs are so greasy you have to boil them. Ball Park Frank's Brand to be specific.

Honestly though, chili cheese dogs off the grill > any hotdog.

There's no way I can decide between the three though.

Crap. I got backspace'd out of my post and it got erased. I'm really starting to hate that.

I am not a big burger fan. I don't like making them at home because I hate sticking my hands in mushy raw meat. I don't like veggies on them because they tend to fall off anyway, and at some places they put the lettuce on while the burger is still steaming hot, which results in snotty, disgusting lettuce. Also most restaurants refrigerate their tomatoes, which is a HUGE no-no and I wish people would quit doing it. It completely destroys the flavor and texture of them. Tomatoes are not supposed to be grainy. http://homecooking.about.com/od/foodstorage/a/tomatostorage.htm

Hotdogs are good if they're the all-beef kind, like Hebrew National. The cheapo "wieners" or "franks" can go back to the dark chasm from whence they came. I put either mustard or mayo on my hotdogs and maybe a little pickle relish, and sometimes chili is good too. But...ketchup on a hotdog? Who DOES that? Five-year-olds? Personally, I don't like ketchup much anyway, but it does have its place, and a hotdog is not one of them.

I would take pizza over the other two almost any day. Pizza is customizable to the Nth degree. You don't even have to put red sauce on it. There's a local pizza place here that does a bacon cheeseburger pizza that has mustard instead of red sauce and it is GOOD. I also like pizza with lots of veggies on it, and, occasionally, good old fashioned pepperoni. My one pizza pet peeve, though, is when places don't bake the crust a little before putting stuff on it. It gets all goopy and doughy underneath the toppings. Gross.
