2.Do serve sesame seed,poppy seed and plain buns with hot dogs, sun-dried tomato buns or basil buns are considered gauche with franks.

Hot dog etiquette has to be an oxymoron.

So your trying to avoid getting stuff all over your face when your downing the messy foot long dog? Gotcha.

The no ketchup on a hot dog thing was made a big deal by Dirty Harry in the 80s, Sudden Impact, I think. Other than that it's just mostly a regional thing.

I like non-sweet bbq sauce on a grilled dog because I am allergic to mustard.

Mustard and onions. Ketchup is for children. It does nothing to add to the complexity of the flavor of anything; besides giving you that sugary taste. If I want that, I'll drink a Dr. Pepper.
