A "Real Christian" would never eat a corn dog.

Well, I'm a Christian, & I quite agree. Corn dogs rock. However, you may be confused due to the laws set forth in Leviticus. Nowadays, Jewish people who keep kosher can't often eat corn dogs because the hot dogs usually contain pork. If they're kosher, then they're okay. However, Christians no longer abide by the old dietary laws of the old testament, so enjoy a corn dog.

Your point is very well taken. Let me begin with a quote from Acts:
"On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour..And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, And saw heaven opened and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth: Wherein were all manner of four footed beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air, and corndogs. And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter, kill, and eat. But Peter said, Not so, Lord. for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.' (Acts 10:9-16)
We can see clearly from this verse that Peter was exhorted to eat anything on the sheet that he saw, including corndogs. An academic question to ponder is: were corndogs considered common, or unclean? A case can be made for both.
Judging from the chubby people waddling around state and county fairs wearing 'I Love Jesus' T shirts and gobbling corndogs, I would say that most Christians today have followed the example set in Peter's vision. There seems to be a bit of hesitation when it comes to eating lizards, but I read recently Gecko Casseroles are catching on in certain Methodist potlucks.

It may not be the corn dogs itself, but it may be the contents of the corn dog. lets say a person doesn't eat pork. most companies make meat products that contain chicken, beef, and pork. and they chose not to eat a brand of corn dogs because of the pork thats in it. my friend has corn dogs in the freezer right now, and i wont eat them because of the pork that is in them.

i am a Christian. different than most but a Christian none the less. as long as the corn dog does not have pork in it there is no reason we cant eat it.

Have you been talking to Ned Flanders? He is only afraid of foot longs, according to the episode that I saw.
That is what you get from learning about the Bible from cartoons.
