Why does everyone keep saying those things that Zell's eating at the end are hotdogs? I think they look too much like bread to mistake them for hotdogs. Could someone post a screenshot of him eating and the end? I've seen one up close and they don't look at all like dogs...
VOTE!!!
They are hot dogs. The whole entire game zell tries to get hotdogs, buut they are out. at the end he finally gets them and gorges himself in them.
He spent his life searching for the thing he loved most...only to choke on it.
In a sense, it is bread. In the Japanese version of FFVIII, the "hot dogs" were "bread;" this, then, is what would have been depicted. Presumably, the graphics weren't altered to reflect the localization.
Kind of makes me wonder why they would run out so quickly…
It must be a specific flavor…
I was waiting for someone to say that as it is what I initially suspected. I didn't want to say anything for fear of being wrong.Quote:

Usually, the bread that you get in cafeterias in Japan has some sort of filling.
Watch Azumanga Daioh if you want to know more, it comes up quite a bit on that show...
Bread is a lot more exciting in Japan, I guess.
The kids in Kimagure Orange Road sure got het up about it.
The japanese are good at making bread interesting - try watching anime like Yakitate!! Ja-pan :D
Bread is good. Hot dog is bad.
I sure hope Zell is eating bread 'cause hot dogs are putrid.
I come from a non-Japanese country so therefore they are hotdogs to me. But either way they would be bread.....hotdogs are put into bread. *Drools* mmmmm hotdogs.....
Yes, I forget the name, but when Necronopticous and I were in Little Tokyo on Sunday we got one. It was one of the greatest things I ever tasted. I just remember it starts with an N and has meat and veggies and herbs and stuff in it and it's the most orgasmic taste I've had in years. It's also spoken of alot in Cardcaptor Sakura, and every now and then in Sailor Moon (though when subbed it's usually just translated as "meat bun" and dubbed called something stupid like a donut).Quote:

The one in his hand kinda looks like a hotdog but the rest of them look like loaves of bread.
look the game says hes eating hotdogs so hes eating hotdogs. that simple.
He's eating a hotdog but what you can see is the bread because the hotdog is inside the bread... :mog:
Lets just say he was eating something...
Why can't we just accept that it was originally bread, and was translated to hotdogs so that all us non-Japanese people would understand why he's craving for them so much?
maybe it was sticky rice :)
THEYRE TOFU DOGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS A HEALTH FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dunno.. but I don't thinkI could stomach the truth...
Or it could be pig guts............
When you're a world class clown you can do things like that! <3Quote:

Yeah, heres what happened. Zell was so desperate for a hotdog and everyone knew that he'd rush to eat anything slightly resembling one, so they set up a plate of old socks.... Then Zell starts chomping on them, and then realises they are socks... reaches for a drink... but its all gone!
They look kind of like donuts.
:eep:
I think they look like this.:meatwad:
POO!
It's Meatball from that one show on Adult Swim!
You know what, I have no idea. One looks like a hot dog, and the other one looks like a sweet roll.
Tofu dogs=what Zell was eating.........
I hope he chokes and dies.......I never liked him!!!!
FLAN!!!
They're both. Y'know. Corndogs?
AHA!!! corndogs! why didn't I think of that!Quote:

HIDE YOUR SPOILERS
the graphics probably make it hard to see the sausage bit.
Okay... quick recap: In Japan, he's eating stuffed bread. Here, he's eating hot dogs that look like bread. Sounds like an overzealous 'Pig in a Blaket'. Let's go with that. That way, he gets HOT DOGS, that are visible as BREAD.
And it fits with his craving of hot dogs... (SPOILER)especially Squall's.
bread is quite a treat in japan, actually. they make different flavours for it, & its very expensive, which is why it makes sense that Zell would want bread as opposed to something else, i.e. hotdogs.
I figure square thought the bread looked enough like hotdog buns (which they did) and just decided not to change it.

Don't double-post, use the edit/delete button instead.

he's eating hot dogs and that's final
We don't say those kinds of things to other members. Don't do it again.

What evidence have you? There has been evidence presented that shows something that hardly looks like a frankfurter/vienna/hot dog/ wiener/etc., and no frankfurter/vienna/hot dog/wiener/etc. has been posted to discredit it. I offered the compromise of the dish, 'pigs in a blanket', and the guy with the uber cool edgar and sabin sig offered corndogs...Quote:
