Completos: Chile’s Ultimate Hot Dog Experience
If you think you’ve had a great hot dog before, wait until you try a completo in Chile. This isn’t just a snack—it’s a cultural icon, a towering, flavor-packed take on the classic hot dog that is not what you expect. .
A completo starts with a more or less "regular" hotdog sausage and hot dog bun. What makes it special is the over-the-top toppings . The most famous version, the “completo italiano”, is loaded with mashed avocado, fresh tomatoes , and a generous slathering of mayonnaise—resembling the colors of the Italian flag. Once you get past the surprise, they are very tasty. 
You can find completos just about everywhere in Chile. One bite, and you’ll understand why Chileans don’t just eat hot dogs—they celebrate them. When in Chile, skip the burger and go for a completo. Just be ready to use plenty of napkins!
