Madison hot dog pushcarts ignite licensing fight
Eddie Elson, a Madison lawyer, mortgaged four pushcarts to sell Mad Dogs on Capitol Square but state health officials say the hot dogs constitute food preparation and threaten to close the business. The dispute centers on Wisconsin mobile restaurant rules and required sinks and water tanks. Dane County DA James Doyle Jr. seeks an attorney general opinion as Elson defends his license and vows to sell hot dogs despite the clash with public health standards.
