Chicago-style relish

A Chicago-style hot dog with green pickle relish as one of the toppings

Chicago-style relish is a type of sweet pickle relish typically used on Chicago-style hot dogs.[1][2] The unique color of the relish, often referred to as "neon green", is created by adding blue dye to regular pickle relish.[3] The first use of Chicago-style relish on a hot dog has been attributed to several different restaurants, including Fluky's[4] and Superdawg.[1]
