I have a neighbor who fishes a lot. she puts her hot dog in a thermos, pours in boiling water, three hours later she pours out the water puts the dog on a prepared bun of mustard and onions and has her lunch.........

My husband eats his hot dogs with ketchup and mustard (I know, not weird), but then he makes a mixture of cottage cheese and applesauce and puts that on his hot dogs! While I've tried it and it's not horrible, it's not how I eat mine!!

Wow, DeeAnne, I would never think to put either of those on a hot dog! I do have an aunt who swears by applesauce on her pizza, though.

Weird how it's only my posts that disappear, are you people that scared of the anti cruelty movement?

For sure the ones at sporting events and carnivals are not the small batch gourmet hot dogs you are making at your shop. Eyeballs would be the least of it, I am sure. OTOH, Americans are way too squeamish.

You are absolutely right! And I agree, there are many MANY issues with big factory producers, but using every bit of the animal isn't something we should frown upon.

You're living in a dream world. Having worked in a commercial meat plant making millions ( not thousands) of wieners let me tell you there is not a shred of the animal/lips/eyeballs/and worse that doesn't go into a weiner. Your review seems self fulfilling to sell your products which in a comparative quantity is miniscule but perhaps more pure. Unfortunately majority of consumer do not purchase your product!

You are absolutely right, Deja! I am definitely not talking about mass-produced supermarket products, I know nothing about what goes into them. I can, however, speak to the fact that there are many small butcher shops popping up all over the country who take great pride in their sausages, and who reserve their lips and eyeballs for other purposes. I am certainly not benefiting personally by promoting meat hook hot dogs, just speaking from my own experience.

Homemade kimchi on a Field Roast Italian or Chipotle vegan dog is really something special.

My latest hot dog (sad desk lunch, as it were) discovery was to wrap a couple uncured pups in taco sized corn tortillas. Wrapped the dogs in packaged cold cut ham (it works with Iberico ham, too) folded one tortilla around each and put them in my snappy plastic sandwich box before nuking them in the office microwave for a minute and a half. Keep the toppings off until the dogs are heated, otherwise the tortillas gets a bit too mushy to pick up. Sort of a sad desk lunch version of a Sonora dog.
