“The Usual”

As a rouguishly unconventional member of the San Francisco Police force, your days can be unpredictable, therefore your meals should remain simple. While waiting for "the calvary" to arrive during an active bank robbery across from your favorite greasy spoon luncheonette, stick to "the usual": a jumbo, pork-based hot dog on a toasted bun with a generous variety of condiments-ketchup, mustard, relish, and sauerkraut-each considerately dressed atop of the dog in a balanced ratio of flavorful doses. It will give you just the right amount of sustenance in case you need to intervene within the action, mid-chew.
