While watching Once Upon A Time In Shanghai I learned this from the movie: that the hot dog was brought from Germany and the bun was added by American in Missouri; use the bun to hold the hot sausage. Two funny scenes when the two experienced hot-dog eater characters introduced the hot dog to the two new comer. Perhaps, in Chinese, in may have been something like this: eat this dog that is hot... Inventing the hot dog bun. Many hot dog historians chafe at the suggestion that todays hot dog on a bun was introduced during the St. Louis Louisiana Purchase Exposition in 1904 by Bavarian concessionaire, Anton Feuchtwanger. As the story goes, he loaned white gloves to his patrons to hold his piping hot sausages. Because most of the gloves were not returned, the supply began running low. He reportedly asked his brother-in-law, a baker, for help. The baker improvised long soft rolls that fit the meat - thus inventing the hot dog bun. Kraig can’t quite swallow that tale and says everyone wants to claim the hot dog bun as their own invention, but the most likely scenario is the practice was handed down by German immigrants and gradually became widespread in American culture. https://youtube/watch?v=RIh4X3Kndgg
