A Norwegian shortening of the words "pølse i vaffel" which translates to hot dog in a waffle. Also, a popular abbreviation of the words is "PIV" used by some people in Moss City. The dish is often topped with jam, ketchup, or mustard. In Sweden, pickle mix and mashed potatoes are the toppings of choice. The "dish" is a popular snack at sporting events throughout outer Østfold county and Moss City. Although it's a very peculiar snack, the people of the area have come to know and love it. The origin of the dish is from Mellerud in Dalsland, Sweden and it was created in the 50s. It was brought in to Norway in the 60s by Arne Hellstrøm, uncle of the now-famous cook Eyvind Hellstrøm. In 2010, a local newspaper wrote that the district council of Østfold was trying to ban the dish, which the county denied. It continues to be a popular feat of sporting events and is thought to be so a long way into the future as well.
