The Krainer Wurst itself dates from the Slovenian-Austrian border region of Krain (Carniola). The cheese-injected Kaesekrainer was developed in the 1970s by Austrian sausage producers and quickly became the most-ordered Vienna street-food plate. The blistered casing and molten cheese earned the affectionate nickname Eitrige (the pus-y one) in Wiener slang. The Bitzinger, Hoher Markt and Leo Wuerstelstaende all cook the canonical version.
