I don't think this graph corrects for purchasing power. In China you can probably get a cheap meal for 3 American dollars. In America you can get maybe one hot dog for $3.
in both countries you can get a hot dog for $1 but the difference is in the first country the vendor will actually be prosecuted when the cheap slop makes you sick
(this is a joke, I'm sure you could get a quality hot dog for <$1 in China no worries)
It looks like the only baseball park in the MLB selling a hot dog for less than $3 (including sales tax) is the one in Toronto Canada: https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fpul77rukkkdd1.jpeg
