I remember several years ago I was in Manhattan and talking to a NewYorker, (don't remember who, but I thought he was credible) who said that the city license to operate hot dog carts at the Empire State Building and Central Park were $500,000. I understood that to be one cart, but I may have misunderstood, it could have been for multiple carts. At any rate, I thought can you imagine how many hotdogs and pretzels you would have to sell just to break that nut! I too loved them.
