Found the article. It's from last year. And they include this fun tidbit: "Memorial Day is the unofficial start of the summer. Labor Day is considered the unofficial end. Between those two holidays, an estimated 818 hot dogs are consumed every second". I don't know what to do with this information but now every American who reads this has to live with the fact that we will, on average, eat over 22 hotdogs during the summer months

I haven't eaten a hotdog for over 5 years. That means someone in America needs to eat 44 hotdogs to make up the difference.
