Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cut off the gas. Drop in quality natural casing beef franks. Cover pot. Take out dogs in 7 minutes. Cleaner than having a dog touch a filthy towel. Better yet, use a grill.

You have no soul. You both strike me a the type of folks who will walk pass a hot dog vendor cart to get to McDonald's (and not for the McRib which would be understandable).
Those dogs have been cooked in super heated steam, nothing is going to contaminate them in a few seconds.
Never did see what condiments were being offered.

Read some of my past posts. The brand, spicing, method of preparation (preferably grilling) is more important than the crap you put on a dog or any trendy way of presenting them. If you look closely, you can tell that the dog is skinless. You have no discernment. I would walk past both a hot dog cart and a McDonald's to get to a place that serves a simple, unpretentious, old school hot dog without gimmicks or fancy toppings that detracts from, rather than enhances the dog. Give me a hot, fresh, premium beef or beef and pork natural casing frank prepared on a hot grill and topped with a quality brown deli mustard and placed in a fresh bun that has been left on the griddle to be toasted as well as absorb some of the flavorful juices. You might as well use a cheap skinless dog, stick it in the exhaust pipe of your car, and put a bunch of trendy crap on it to mask it's inferior flavor.
