Oscar Mayer has created a 'WienerDrone' — the first ever unmanned hot dog-carrying aircraft

Oscar Mayer has made a new addition to its "WienerFleet."

On Monday, the iconic hot dog maker — perhaps best known for its legendary Weinermobile — announced the debut of the WeinerDrone.

The "first unmanned hot dog-carrying aircraft" is designed to carry and deliver one hot dog at a time, dropping the weiner into the hands of customers in remote locations from the sky.

The WeinerDrone, along with the Weinermobile and the rest of the WeinerFleet, is traveling around the US this summer to deliver hot dogs and highlight Oscar Mayer's new recipe. In May, the company announced it had removed nitrates and artificial preservatives from its entire line of hot dogs.

"We're committed to getting our new hot dog in everyone’s hands — and going to great lengths to do this. We knew that was a job for more than just our existing Wienermobile," Oscar Mayer's head of marketing, Greg Guidotti, said in a statement. "So, we’ve expanded our Oscar Mayer fleet, ensuring every American can taste the new recipe because we believe everyone deserves a better hot dog."

Call me old-fashioned, but I still prefer the manned hot dog-delivering aircraft.

Thousands of drones blasting this music is the only way to go.

Hopefully the drones will fare better than their Weiner mobile.

Even better would be if Johnsonville develops a fleet of Bratwurst Drones.

Oscar - now there’s a name that’s fallen out of favor.

I know. When Princess Victoria of Sweden named her son Oscar, I thought that was pretty cool.

In three years there will be Mad Max and Thunderdrone.

Drones will decide who rules the world.

“Un-manned Wiener drone’, not be confused with a “one-hand Weiner phone”, which of course roasted a certain ex-congressman.

This is why trying to predict the future is an unrewarding endeavor, even you could actually get it right. Imagine 40 years ago if someone genuinely got a brief glimpse of “the future.” When asked, What did you see?, he or she says, Flying Weiners!

See what I mean?
