I have a weak spot for Boar’s Head natural casing franks. Once a year I’ll get a package, and they’re not disgusting at all, just really unhealthy. The Natural Casing is probably the most disgusting (objectively) part, but it’s awesome. Anyone heard the “Bung” episode of This American Life? You should–it’s hilarious.
Old joke:
I was talking to the local butcher and he said ‘I never eat other people’s sausages, because I don’t know what they put in them. I know exactly what goes into my sausages, and I’m not eating those either’!.
You thought that was disgusting? What do you think the passengers sitting around you thought about it?
I still love hot dogs but I try to eat very few since they aren’t the healthiest thing around. I used to love getting a Costco dog for lunch and adding a huge amount of the fresh ground onions and a ton of mustard. But, since covid they haven’t had the onion grinder. A hot dog HAS to have onions and mustard. Just mustard isn’t worth it.
They have onions back, just in little Solo cups…
I’ll have to check next time I’m in around lunch time! Are they behind the counter and you have to ask for them? I glance at the mustard station and have never noticed anything like this.
BTW, my wife claims she doesn’t like hot dogs, but she always wants a couple bites of mine when I get one.
Who is that?
Those are great but not cheap.
Here in Bozeman they’re on the main counter with the parmesan and the pepper flakes…
You really want the cheap dogs???
Lorber served as one of the top economic advisers to Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.
Altho, to be fair here, Lorber leads Nathan’s Famous, a fast food chain, and the hot dogs are manufactured by Smithfield Foods, according to Wikipedia (not sure if that helps Nathan’s in this case).
What’s wrong with organs?
You mean emulsified high-fat offal tubes?
Nope, but those are most expensive than Hebrew Natl or Nathans\
Right, he has nothing to do with the hot dog maker, which is a subsidiary of a subsidiary of some company in China it seems.
Now I want some–been a few months since my wife went on a business trip!
Nothing better than the dogs at 7-11. Add lotta jalapenos, some ketchup, and gobble eagerly while avoiding eating much of the disgustingly sweet buns. If they had plates and forks I’d skip the disgusting buns altogether.
Responding to the OP, I don’t know. I LOVE hotdogs. I named a dachshund Nathan, because it would sound silly to call for Hebrew National. Also I find that most ofther sausages are good, especially German onesl
Excuse me, Mr LSLGuy, would you please step into my office? Mr Adams would like a word with you…
I fear I must concur with the post just above. What’s all this about ketchup? You either have ketchup confused with mustard, or you have a hot dog confused with a burger. Either way, as an individual of obviously discriminating taste and intelligence, it is inconceivable that you should speak of voluntarily putting ketchup on a hot dog. Perhaps this was some sort of fraternity prank in your early years?
Fresh chopped onions, sure. Balsamic onions, sure (but not both). Hot dog relish, meh, if you’re of that inclination, who am I to judge? And of course the mandatory swirls of yellow mustard (not Dijon – not for hot dogs). But ketchup?
Think of the children, of all those who may read of this travesty in the future, that a young child might turn to her mother, and in a voice tinged with both wonder and disgust, ask “mommy, is it true that in ancient times they would smear ketchup on a hot dog, and then eat it?”. And the mother would have to reply, “Yes, my child, before the Great Enlightenment of 2147 people did many foolish things.”
If it is DILL pickle relish, then yes.
Now, kids do like ketchup on hot dogs, but they havent developed a palate yet.
And ketchup on french fries is okay.
Lovely.
What does it say about someone’s palate that they feel hot dogs are too sophisticated for ketchup?
I’m going with chili sauce and mustard. A few onions wouldn’t be amiss.
ETA that’s Heinz Chili sauce and cheapo yellow mustard.
