5 things to know: What's in a hot dog? Apparently, human DNA

JANUARY 25, 2013-SUWANEE: Chris Schutte plates a hotdog on a bun steamed by his latest product in the kitchen of his Suwanee home on Friday Jan. 25th, 2013. When he lost his job a second time, he decided to scratch a long standing itch and become an entrepreneur. His idea: a kitchen cooking device he'd conceived called the Hot Dog Bun EZ Steamer - a contraption made out of wire that you stick in a pot and perfectly steams the bun while cooking the dog. Before he knew it, his crazy idea seemed to be taking off. But sales fell short. One low point found him taking back tens of thousands of Steamies from QVC when it couldn't sell them. Schutte hasn't given up. But he knows the time to make his dream come true may be coming to an end. PHIL SKINNER / PSKINNER@AJC.COM editor's note: CQ
