Coney Dogs aren't safe from High Inflation Prices

The Detroit coney is amazingly consistent – chili, mustard and chopped onions over a hot dog and a bun. The ingredients were the same no matter what

After charging 99 cents for 17 years, Grandy’s Coney Island at Fenkell Avenue and Lahser Road increased its coney price a few months ago to $1.10, owner Gus Jaku tells Axios.

"Everything went up — chili, the bread, everything," Jaku explains.

Lafayette Coney Island charges $3.50 per coney, and the price at neighboring American Coney Island is $3.45.

American Coney Island owner Grace Keros echoed others, citing increasing supplier costs for the 10-cent increase to $3.45
