Non-traditional

What does "non-traditional locations" mean? Joyous | Talk 23:11, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

I dont know. I copied the list from dognsuds.org. I think the food is made in a trailer or in a mall instead of the traditional drive-in.--Jon Revelle 04:32, 23 January 2006 (UTC)--

I'm pretty sure this means they were built recently as opposed to back in the 1960's and have a area where you can walk inside as oppopsed to only driving in.

It refers to locations that are co-located with another business, like a gas station, or are built in shopping centers and do not offer the car-hop feature. Crohakon 07:15, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

• In the 1960s, the Champaign, Illinois DnS had in-door and (mostly) in-car service. Kdammers (talk) 18:36, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

Basically it means it is not a drive-in. -Starlite64 (talk) 15:48, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Take-home root beer jugs/containers

Both brown and yellow one-gallon containers with plastic and metal caps were made. Does anyone know the historical particulars of these jugs? Sudsipedia 15:50, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

What exactly would you like too know? I have seen several of these jugs. It is no longer legal for us to use them, for health code reasons. Currently in Michigan we are using Milk Jugs (bought new (never used), and sealed after filled) too sell our gallons of fresh root beer. I will see if I can find a picture and I will post it along the right wall of the wiki page. (Crohakon (talk) 15:15, 11 January 2008 (UTC))

Dog n Suds - Corporate Name

The corporate name, as reflected in five registered (four active) trademarks is "Dog n Suds:--no apostrophes. - Cecropia 18:40, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Sonic

Were many of the old Dog 'n Suds converted to Sonic_Drive-In? If so, or if there is any connection, shouldn't it be mentioned in this article? PrettyMuchBryce 04:23, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Locations

Have any of you been to any of the Michigan DnS locations? Crohakon 08:05, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

My family owned one in Dunedin, FL for 26 years. We still have a lot of the stuff from the Dog N' Suds. If you would like to know more e-mail me: WDC419@aol.com

I remember the one we had in Naples, FL, at least into the 60s or so. I think it probably closed in the late 60s, early 70s. --129.188.33.26 (talk) 18:40, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Advertising

I took out the line in the food part that said "It's a monster of a Burger that will leave you begging for more. At the very least it's advertising. Not to mention a, most likely biased, opinion. (71.114.176.117 (talk) 09:44, 10 January 2008 (UTC))

Understandable. I did not think about the advertising issue when posting it. (Crohakon (talk) 15:08, 11 January 2008 (UTC))

I didn't mean to be a shit head about it, I was in a really bad mood that day because I had like 3 people threaten to ban me that day over stupid shit. Really I'm thinking about reverting it back because I don't really care. I was just mostly being a smartass, figured someone would revert it back because everyone on here is a touchy asshole.

Regional?

There was a Dog n Suds at 4315 West Clearwater Drive in Kennewick, Washington. This article says the chain is from the "midwest", but the menu I have says it was "coast to coast". Is expansion and location information in this article incorrect or dated? -- Mikeblas (talk) 22:18, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

Content restoration

This company is well-known for its brand of root beer, so I restored the image of its root beer to the article. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 20:54, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

I removed the ", and is delicious" from the company infobox, for I hope obvious reasons.Kcor53 (talk) 14:48, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

Lede

The lede says that the company serves "fast-food staples including hamburgers, french fries, and soft drinks. " Considering that the name of the company starts with [hot]"dog," it seems wrong to have the lead mention hamburgers (which I do not specifically recall being on the menu in Champaign when I worked there in the '60s) but not hotdogs or their highlighted coney dogs. I have not changed any-thing since I don't have access to verifiable information attesting to what seems to be a different focus than our lede gives unless the company's own site qualifies [[1]].
