The Hotdog is a mobile catering vehicle in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Description
Designed as a large, old van with with an oversized roof-mounted hotdog, the Hotdog is a hotdog van that can usually be found at special events, or generally at places where people need food. By walking into the red marker, the player may buy a hotdog from the van to replenish their health.
The van can be stolen and driven around by the player, while the hot dog vendor inside cowers in fear, thus disabling the food stall.
