What is it that makes Hot Dog Stand so unique? It's an often requested "lost" educational game for the Macintosh computer. There are lost shareware games, obscure betas and whatnot floating around, but somehow Hot Dog Stand is still fondly remembered enough to stick in the minds of adult millenials today. Many people were introduced to educational programming in schools, which has created a strange interest in the genre years later. These programs and games were only accessible to teachers via special educational order forms and bundles, and often were not sold at retail level.
