Feltman's of Coney Island Debuts DTC Bacon Exclusively on the Company's Website
The name behind America’s first hot dog—Feltman’s of Coney Island (est. 1867)—has officially expanded their critically acclaimed all-natural product line with the launch of Feltman’s Thick-Cut Uncured Bacon, now available exclusively via direct-to-consumer shipping at the company's website.
In 1867, Charles Feltman invented the world’s first hot dog on a split bun as a convenient way for Coney Island New York beachgoers to enjoy sausages without plates or silverware. First sold along the sand dunes from his simple pie cart, Feltman’s hot dogs were an instant sensation that went on to build the world’s largest restaurant by the turn of the century, serving up to 40,000 guests in a single day. Nearly 150 years later, two Brooklyn brothers, Michael and Joe Quinn (CPT U.S. Army) revived Feltman’s legacy in memory of their late brother who died in the 9/11 attacks--and thus, the original original hot dog was reborn.
