Criticism
Hot dog day events have been criticized for promoting animal slaughtering and for promoting animal cruelty, even if many of the activities of the events do not involve hot dogs. They have been criticized for encouraging people to turn a blind eye to these practices. Most hot dogs are produced by slaughtering pigs for meat, and vegetarians and vegans have created vegetarian hot dog days in response to the traditional events.

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“To be just, that is to say, to justify its existence, criticism should be partial, passionate and political, that is to say, written from an exclusive point of view, but a point of view that opens up the widest horizons.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“It is from the womb of art that criticism was born.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“Like speaks to like only; labor to labor, philosophy to philosophy, criticism to criticism, poetry to poetry. Literature speaks how much still to the past, how little to the future, how much to the East, how little to the West.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
